Dan,
What is a breather element? Do you mean an air filter?

Title: Yubo's Juzu brings good luck
Date: Sat, 26 Sep 2009 00:13:39 +0000
Author: jdmsteve
For those who arent familiar with Mr.Yubo, hes a D1 driver fully sponsored by the infamous WELD. His demeanor is a super friendly and energetic character, but once you get in the car with him he means all business. Nightwalkers is the name of his race team, as they are notoriously known to be one of the top crews in the Yokohama region. Ive had several opportunities to hang out with him and go to the local touges in Japan a few years back.
He straps in, greets you with his friendly smile, blasts his super euro trance mix to get his adrenaline pumping and just tosses the car sideways in a two lane mountain road. His drifting skills were acquired in the local mountains, not at the race track like most of the competitive drifters these days.
His blog can be seen here: yubo-yokohama
While he is in competition he mostly relies on his skill but the rest is up to his good luck charm. A “Yuzu” bracelet is blessed by Buddhist priests and brings safety and good luck to each who wears it around their wrist. It started as a religious necessity in the past, but in modern times in the land of the rising sun, it is often seen as the latest fashion trend.
Interesting trend! www.x7x-yubo.com

 Square Egg 1. How come we can send a man to the moon, but can’t detect when the car tire is under pressured ? I Just found out that I was driving on 16PSI instead of 32PSI. Same for oil level.Same for car battery.
 Funny Cat On Tire 2. Automatic shirt ironing machine. Can be built using nano-technology or little robotic ants, as far as I’m concerned.
 A shirt-ironing machine from Siemens 3. Full text indexing for PC’s. I uninstalled Google desktop last week. It just does not work.
4. A way to get my cell phone SMS and voicemail in my email account. Please, Pretty please. Willing to pay. More on: http://ophir.wordpress.com/2009/09/25/11-trivial-inventions-we-all-need/
