    Heterojunction and UV Tech

    Hey All ... again, The PV + PW system I am looking at is taking shape, and as I learn a bit more, I seem to know a lot less (bear with me, Super Newb). My project guy is coming to assess my building for install and fill me in on what can and can't be done with regulations here in the middle of...

    Hey All! I live in Yokohama, Japan, and am looking at Solar Panels and a pair of Tesla Powerwalls. Please understand I am a carpenter and mechanic, and know a bit about IT, but a newb about Electric Stuff ... please be kind. Wife and I went to the Tesla Owner's Club All Japan Meet the end of...

    MYP Suspension Travel

    Hey All! MYP delivery scheduled for March 1, and getting excited ... and perhaps a bit anxious 😐. Trading in my '20 M3SR+, I would really like to NOT get the "terrible/horrendous ride quality" some folks talk about. My test ride was a lot better than my M3, sooo ... My question is about...

    Well, finally posting my "Waiting ..." thread for a Model Y Performance. Ordered September 28, 2022, ETD February to March 2023. We (my wife and I) are thoroughly enjoying our M3SR+. But when I saw a news clip showing the Model Y finally landing in Yokohama Port, we reserved a test drive at...

    Lucky Bags

    Lucky bags are a thing in Japan every New Years holiday. I learned about them in 1973 from my last girlfriend (now my wife). Department stores and even some local shops would get a big bag and stuff it with several nice things and sell it at a set price. The value of the items inside were...

    Comfort Wheels?

    Hey Folks! Still hoping to take delivery of a MYP in Feb/Mar 2023, and still obsessed with getting a tad more range and a tad more comfort. I do know about changing suspension components, but (for now) looking at tires and wheels. I came across RAYS Vesus Mode Forged (VMF) C-01 wheels i...

    Not Quite Square Setup

    Hi from Yokohama! Been reading a LOT of threads about wheels and tires for my coming Model Y Performance. I want a Long Range for long range, but not available in Japan, and no hint that it may be coming. I am now driving a M3SR+, and it's just not enough range for wife and I to go where we...

    My car thinks it is in Berlin!

    But I live in Yokohama, Japan!! I drove my wife’s puppy to the groomer today, and noticed the display clock was 8 hours behind JST. I tried a few soft-reboots, but still wrong. What gives? I will drive to Tesla Service tomorrow, if nobody has a quick solution. Will post results. Btw, 2021...

    Wheel Aesthetics Poll ... sort of

    Hey All from Yokohama, Not really a poll, just asking opinions on the three wheels I'm looking at for my MYP arriving early next year. Living in Japan, my options may be different from what you have available. Also keep in mind that the first Model Ys just came here only three months ago, so...

    "I hate waiting ..." Inigo Montoya

    Ordered a Model Y Performance, Red Multicoat, White Interior on August 21, 2022. Vague Delivery of February 2023 to March 2023. Sigh ... I live in Japan, so Right Hand Drive. As far as I know, all RHD cars are presently from Shanghai Gigafactory. My 2021 Model 3 SR+ was made in Fremont. If...

    Hey from Japan!

    Hey All from Yokohama, Japan. I bought a Model 3 SR+ two years ago, and enjoying it a LOT!! But, I'm getting up there age-wise, and the M3 is really down there, as in low ingress/egress. Took a test drive a few weeks back, and placed my order for a Model Y Performance, due to deliver February...
