Remembering Japanese cars from the past
Car? Check!
Sea? Check!
Beach? Check!
Scenic rocks? Check!
Pose in front of the camera? Check!
I guess this panoramic picture is the perfect photo for the family album!
It is so perfect that it has to be repeated once more with the wife: Continue reading
When looking through a bunch of Minkara accounts when searching for Tokyo Auto Salon pictures I found this small photo regarding a very green Police car:
It is a Honda Insight used by the Tokyo Police. Apparently they are changing their mindset to green.
Found at Minkara
Earlier this week I came across this photo of a Carina rear view mirror on Minkara and it reminded me of the cover of one of the Carina catalogues I own.
The setting is almost the same, but the background isn’t
This is the catalogue cover I’m referring to: Continue reading
To prove that not all Nissan Laurel C130s were bosozoku styled during the 80s:
Nissan Laurel C130 with Enkei Baja wheels
With those Enkei Baja wheels and the Monroe air shocks all it needs is to be red and it would be the Japanese replica of the General Lee! :D

Minkara
Earlier we covered the registration process and setting up your profile, so let start adding cars now!
Minkara guide part 3: go to car listing
This is where you click to go to the car listing page…
You will see an empty page on which you have one big button. Now what should you do with that button then?
Minkara guide part 3: click on add car
Click it of course! ;)
Which takes you to the edit car details page:
Minkara guide part 3: edit car details
I tried to put in there whatever I could translate. The only tricky part is selecting the manufacturer and model! The lists are so long that I can’t really translate them. Least I can do is provide you with the most important manufacturers from the list:
???: Toyota
??: Nissan
???: Honda
??: Mitsubishi
???: Mazda
???: Subaru
???: Suzuki
????: Daihatsu
???: Isuzu
??: Mitsuoka
After you selected the manufacturer the page will reload and load the models by that manufacturer. What you can do is use Firefox, select the drop-down box containing the models, right-click on the selection and choose “view selection source”. This way you will get that list in html formatted text which you can put through Google-translate. It won’t work very well, but at least it is better than nothing. ;)
So, filled in all details? Click on the “Check” button to see how it is going to look on your profile:
Minkara guide part 3: confirm car details
Satisfied? Click on “Submit” button to confirm your car. Otherwise click on the “Edit” button to go back to the edit screen.
Minkara guide part 3: done!
Well, we’re done! Congratulations: you just added your first car to your Minkara profile!
Next episode we will look into adding modifications to your cars!
After last weeks registration (Minkara guide part one) we now continue with the basic profile. After you have logged in you must go to your profile page first:
Minkara guide step 2: go to your profile page
As you can see it is pretty empty there! First thing they ask you to do is to agree to the terms (yes, once again!):
Minkara guide step 2: agree to the terms
So, check that checkbox and press continue…
After you have done that you will see a very very very long page with way too many options:
Minkara guide step 2: edit profile details
As you can see: it is a bit unclear if you don’t know what it says! I tried to put it all in one single image and tried to translate it properly but some thinks are a bit unclear for me as well…
You can also upload your default profile picture here. It will be used as an icon and also shown bigger on your public profile page.
After you have filled in everything and pressed the Submit button you will get a confirmatiobox asking if everything has been filled in correctly. Press OK to continue… And surprise surprise: your profile details have been filled in!
That’s it for this guide! In the next part (will be posted tomorrow!) we will start adding cars.
