Pimp My Ride

23 May 2005 | Comments (3)

This weekend Azusa and I took our MINI Cooper S to the MINI Delta Garage in Osaka. The reason? To pimp our ride!!! Well, not quite… Actually we just wanted to make a few minor adjustments… We had the brake pads changed out and installed new slotted rotors… Now the MINI has improved stopping power and produces very little brake dust. For the final touches, we had braces installed in the engine compartment and in the trunk space… Today the MINI seems to be handling a lot better. A very worthy upgrade, indeed.

Man, I wish I had one of these hoists… It makes pimpin’ your ride so much easier!

Golden Week Galleries

I said that I would have the Golden Week galleries finished last Saturday, but it took me a little longer than I expected. Anyways, I did get them finished finally. Three of them! Feel free to check out the Aichi Expo Gallery, Taroubou Shrine Gallery and the Kyoto Gallery… Just click the names to be whisked away to the gallery. I’ve also added the galleries to the links section at the bottom of this page for easy access.

Golden Week Visitors

This year Azusa and I had some special visitors for Golden Week. We were lucky enough to spend the entire vacation with my brother Bryan and his wife Tabby! It was a really cool week, indeed! Everyday was an adventure and Azusa and I managed to take them to some interesting places. I’d like to take the time to tell you about the places we went, but I’d rather show you. I’m in the process of building several galleries that chronicle our Golden Week adventures and I should have them finished by tomorrow. Check back soon!
