is it possible for you to take as may pics as you can of the junk yards, tuner shops, and cars when you are in japan? Watching JDM Insider has great vids about japan and its car culture but I would like to see many places that are left out such as their junk yards that car dvd's and magazine don't really mention/cover when it comes to finding rare jdm parts. I know 1 or 2 car dvd's that talk about Up Garage a place where they sell tons of used parts. They are a franchise with some small stores and some big as warehouses across japan. I asked a friend of a friend who's stationed in japan and says that japanese people don't shop at Up Garage because no one wants second hand parts. I don't know if that's true but in the video Drift Society vol 1 it talks about it and takes a tour around the place. In the video there's nobody in the store when they were walking around. Seeing pics of your adventure in japan is all I ask and it lets me see what japan as to offer in their car society. Thanks!

You should grab as many digital climate controls as you can. Most of the ones that everyone has are missing some really important part that can only be found in Japan. (Sorry it's been a while since I read up on the swap.) I'll be totally down to buy one off of you.

Up garage rocks, there are other chains and independent second hand stores too. Its worth noting there were wheels, like, MOUNTAINS of wheels for ridiculously good prices. The biggest chain is Autobacs, which is like a japanese pep-boys. The premium stores are called Super Autobacs, and these are tons of insane parts inside. Here are some pics to give you an idea: zerothread?id=278569

Nice pics! Did you get to walk around their junk yards? Another store I read upon from turbo magazine http://www.turbomagazine.com/f....html called crystal auto. I would love to go to japan and bring back some stuff if it wasn't so expensive to ship. I had a buddy who wanted to go to japan, load a sh*t ton of stuff on a cargo and have it shipped. But he said renting one cargo box as big as a train box car was like 15+ g's including all costs to have it loaded and shipped on a boat. I'm thinkin he was all bull but then again if it was cheap everybody would be doing it.

Looking for S15 OEM HID headlights, complete with ignitors, ballast, harness, etc., in very good condition (not new).

Kouki tails...

and lastly I have some interest in a rare steering wheel. If that's possible, lmk and I'll e-mail you pics of mine to compare..

Thanks for the offer, man!

what about bumpers and skirts, are those things you can take/carry onto ship?

I would need, S13 Aero bumper, S13 "brick" Halogen lights L+R, S13 Silvia "coupe" skirts L+R,

And if you find and can take S14 Zenki, Navan bumper, skirts, and wing, would sell like hot cakes here.

So if you see things from above make sure to grab them if you can.

customs? yeah not going to happen, we already did that. as for the aero, I think at the most is going to be rear valences. no bumpers. I might try and get some skirts but that is very doubtful. also just so everyone knows, im not promising anything...if it is available i will get it, im definetly going to check out an up garage or autobacs if available. so we will see tomorrow what is around were im at.
