Not lose power, just not gain as much as EL.

I've just discovered that Rakuten (Japan's Amazon, basically) now sells and ships internationally. Maybe they always did, but now it's all machine-translated into English and auto detected my country and converted all the Yen to Canadian dollars. So now we have access to JDM EVERYTHING, give or take a thing or two.

So long as you can sort through the robot translation. And deal with the occasional disturbing Japanese product. For example, I had a 'Popular in Canada' suggestion pop up in side window during a BRZ search.

Now what item would it be? Well, this: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/a...tem/mr-bra001/

Discuss..?

... I am alpha, and I am omega ... I guess this is how the robot translator gets the association from BRZ to BRA.

Think positively, that thing could be helpful for photo shoot on some male models to fake some breast muscle. I once heard from my friend that even mens are comparing their breast sizes in the Gym. Don't know if this is true.

Not a translation problem. Just a Canadian problem ???

It was off to the side, out of the results, basically some got bought in Canada, so the site thought I might like them. Other recommended items were normal fashion stuff.

Also, I don't think it's to enhance pectoral muscle appearance. At all.

But hey, easy access to JDM watches now.

So yeah thanks @Dimman.... thanks a lot.

In other news I met my cousin's new pit bull puppy.

The pup ends up shitting and throwing up $300 dollars.
SMH. This is just the beginning.

Watched the last few laps of the Long Beach Pro Celebrity race that featured the FR-S on Speed, it looked fun. Drivers were letting the tail out (perhaps unintentionally), some even spun, if i were a celebrity I would be making sure someone put me in one of those cars lol.

This reminds me of another reason I like my wife. She like men to look like men, with hair and muscles and what not. Not this metro-sexual bull shit that's going on. I can't even comprehend how 'fancy' a guy would have to be to wear that.


Edit: Those prices aren't all that great, and I couldn't find any sti parts on there.

It's got to be some fetish thing. It's just getting annoying as I search that the man-bra is sitting off to the side. Watching. Like the Japanese site designers have no idea that something like that may bother normal people.

As for the prices, yeah. But I am more excited about availability. For instance, if I had a Honda Beat I can now find a body kit, coilovers and 3-1 header for it.

Because obscure JDM yo!








Also, though of you a while ago when the Chive did a gallery with some little hottie who is a Canadian Forces truck driver in Halifax.
