Is anyone else concerned about radiation from japanese parts!?
So i just finished reading an article about how theyve measured radiation levels higher than chernobyl in tokyo park!

Whats the deal with all these shipments of fresh jdm motors and parts, are they being checked!?

Just a concern that i dont see many people expressing here, as we know the truth is not being told about how bad it is in Japan.

Personally im concerned about parts coming out of Japan and I think everyone should be as well.

Thats my point here is that everyone's just like oh the govt says everything is fine and not testing anything.

Meanwhile theyve stopped several shipping containers and even flights out of Japan for high levels of radiation.

Alot is at stake here concerning commerce and they stand to loose billions if these things were deemed unsafe, whenever money is involved I dont expect the truth and neither should you.

nice tinfoil hat.

im just asking the questions, the fact that you guys are like WTF are you serious makes me question it even more.

There are several reactors still dumping shit constantly, just because you havent heard it on duh TV doesnt mean its not happening.

If someone has tested these parts and can show the data thats great. Show us.

You're obviously the only one with the concern, you show us?

Every city has a Radiation Regulatory Agency, there they have the tools to measure levels of radiation on all your baller sh*t from jdm land.

this is the way I look at it. The Japanese people aren't dead yet... their parts should be okay.

p.s. you may want to stop looking at your microwave....it emits radiation.

everything is ok, go back to sleep.
