Default You've Gotta Love the Japanese

I was having a browse through the history that came with my Type R and it has the JDM Manual and service book with it. Just had to put a few of the pics up that were in the manual

'Don't drive with Marmite on the dashboard'



'Wife and child must always travel in the back'



'Child abuse is wrong'



'Always launch your car correctly'



'If you drift it you will swear in Japanese'



'Tunnel runs will make you come out in a cold sweat'



'Dont put your car in a field'



'Wheels go here'



'The sunroof is not a door'




and my favourite


'Don't chav up your car'

I like the English translation of the manual where it talks about DCCD and that you must not adjust it when all 4 wheels are off the ground !
