Hello from down under!
Hi,
Names Harley, Live in Australia, Melbourne. I've loved cars my hole life, found out about AE86 when I was looking for my first car, my cuz told me about them he had one like 10 years ago. I didn't buy find one at the time becuase i was put off by the carby motor so I brought a corolla sx (Known as GTi in europe). After doing some research on my sx I found out that a 4age (which I love) fits into a ae86  After a year or so I found a cheap one and now i'm currently rebuilding my aus spec ae86 with a smallport 4age. Will post in the members ride soon. Cheers |

Hello from down under!
Aka, the trainman (movie) or Akihabara man (electric district of Tokyo, nerd central)..
Interesting name..real Otaku's more or less loose contact with the real world. Their reasoning being that the world, people and even girlfriends inside the manga/game world are so nice that nothing real will ever come close. Thanks to Akihabara they are slowly coming above ground as a subculture, with their own shopping district (electronics, comics, games, toy collectibles) and even bars and restaurants (with a lot of very weird but cool cosplay places)..Don't know what to think about them though..they might be Man v1.1 and not sure whether I like that particular glimpse of the future.

Hello from down under!
I think the otakus are more or less a byproduct of the current culture around the world. The otaku definition already applies to large groups outside Japan and maybe it more or less indicates our own cultural problems
