Hilarious: how to make candy Sushi

February 11, 2011 / banpei / 3 Comments

When I watched this video half of my face was just laughing the whole time while the other half was turning into disgust: it tells you how to make your own almost real (sweet) candy sushi:

Okay, I must say the structure of the tuna is spot on! And the small fish eggs look so real I would immediately take a bite! Perhaps a way for vegans to actually eat sushi?
Still knowing that it actually is candy sweet stops me from buying such package…

If sushi is not your thing, how about a nice candy pizza and pasta?

Great way to eat these candy versions is shown at 1:35, a set of toothpicks used as chopsticks!

Japanese rustoseums (part twenty)

February 10, 2011 / banpei / 4 Comments

The first thing I thought when I saw this pigsbutt (butaketsu) Laurel SGX was that it had developed a rusty (coin) slot:

Rusty pigsbutt Nissan Laurel C130
Its rear end is completely rusted through and, apart from the interior, the rest of the car doesn’t look much better either…
Still it is not way beyond repair: its new owner is going to restore it in full glory! :)
(BTW: it is not advisable to lookup “rusty slot”! :P )

Carina Sightings: 1981 Carina GL TA60

February 9, 2011 / banpei / 0 Comments

Last Sunday I saw an ad appear on Marktplaats offering a rare metallic green Carina GL TA60 for sale:

Metalic green Carina GL TA60
In the Netherlands the GL is a rare package where the rear seats have the headrests, more comfortable seats, storage compartments at the back of the front seats in the front doors and in the luggage compartment separate compartments for jack and tools, It doesn’t sound like much, but if you take one peek into my trunk you will know why you need seperate compartments for your tools. ;)

The interior still looks great considering it is already 30 years old:

Metalic green Carina GL TA60
However there appears to be a small repair patch on the passenger seat…

The car has 127k on the odometer:

And apparently they love the odd numbers on it as well.

Unfortunately when I checked the ad for the second time it had gone already. So either someone got really lucky or they decided not to sell the car after all. Thanks to Google cache I was still able to share it. :)

Familiy Album Treasures: Mad camber on a Carina TA17

February 8, 2011 / banpei / 2 Comments

I liked the Carina hardtop coupe TA17 in last treasure so much that I found another one:

Hayashi Streets with mad camber
Clearly a picture taken from someones 70s photo album: a nice Carina TA17 hardtop coupe sitting on a set of 13 inch Hayashi Streets with baloon tires and even the front wheels have some camber. (would be demon camber in those days!)

Newdeluxe1969 posted a video where he attends the JCCA 2011 New Year Meeting. Don’t expect footage of the event itself because most of it contains fast forward driving in his Nissan Skyline VC10 through Odaiba:

A few days back I spotted this black 2009 Mazda MX5 NC on the parkinglot next to my local supermarket:
