O SNAP! Whassup man, haha, I want. . .a domo kun stuffed animal, and some. . .H4 headlamps, . . .JDM turn signals for a chuki bumper, and your springs. Haha, did you ever sell those?

O, and look at the upgarage places and stuffs for cool things for yourself, what do you plan to get?

O you should buy hella used steering wheels, and bring em back, I want one, but only if it's cheap. ;D

07-01-2005, 02:26 AM
i'll be there for about 2 weeks.
but remember guys (even those that pm'd), i'll need the money to get you guys the stuff, and of course if i get it for cheaper or don't get it at all, you'll get your money back. let me know asap.

and i'm really not going to get anything for my car... i rather splurge on other things.

Could you pm me the price of the V35 Skyline 350 GT wheel centercaps? I e-mailed JapanParts.com and they gave me an estimate of ¥13,200 (~$119) for a set of 4 :(.

I have the USDM G35 18s and I'm using the 350Z 'NISSAN' center caps, but the paint doesn't match the wheel.

kingsol
07-01-2005, 10:36 AM
ok, the dildo knob and the initial D game, i think i could shoulder the cost till i get back, so let me know if you guys really want it.

and for the center caps... i'm still here, so have no idea, and i can't imagine how often i'll be online when i'm in japan... so, let me know.

and to the other guys--me need money.

07-06-2005, 06:52 PM
sup guys, [email protected] having a great time, but [email protected] having trouble finding the car shops. i have limited internet access, so if you guys could help by posting addresses of upgarage and the like, it`d help. i already know the websites, but they`re in japanese and they don`t help much.

hendogg8
07-06-2005, 06:54 PM
Sup man? What part of japan are you in?

Sil-Abc
07-06-2005, 06:55 PM
QUICK SOMEONE TRANSLATE THE addresses so he can pick up our stuff!

hendogg8
07-06-2005, 07:27 PM
If you can, hit up a bookstore that sells magazines, and look for a publication called "Goo Parts". It's a collection of many (used) car parts stores around japan, complete with addresses, small location maps and phone numbers of each store.

kazuo
07-07-2005, 04:26 PM
Don,

Your location at the current moment would be most helpful.

And ya, go to a conbini or something (convinience store, like 711 or Lawson's or some shit) and pick up a classifieds book, has all kinds of shops in it).

95zilvia
07-07-2005, 09:09 PM
ok, places you have to go are...
hah, i dont remember where i went, lemme check out the journal my girl wrote
but i only went to a bunch of typical places like autobacs and crap that i found on my own.
ok, if you're in the city.. you can take the subway thing to... higashi jyujo.. and there's a super autobacs around there. it's pretty close to the station like, 10 mins walk after? you can buy bubble knobs and crap there for like $35.. i mean.. $65
i also went to another city called yono, where they had a second hand super autobacs store, but that place sucked shit, everything was expensive and it was a fucking long ass walk, had to ride the taxi back to the station cuz we were so tired.
i also had a whole car day w/ "s14slide" but he's out of the country right now i think, but not sure. we went to fussa tok us like, 1 1/2 hours to get there.

some things to do in japan:
eat tako balls. squid balls w/ like, 3 sauces on them. they have em all over.
eat at rotating sushi places
drink lots of beer , like, breakfast lunch dinner.
24 hour ramen
24 hour curry
24 hour beef bowl donburi stuff.
japanese pancakes from lawsons... mmmmm
goto spa at telecom center. you get to shimbashi, and ride the train to telecom center.
see ugl naked people at the spa, and some cuties too, but not naked, spas are seperated.

have fun man, hope you get this msg in time.

and another note, most car stuff is like, outside the city. you gotta goto the country side to find stores like Parts Off and Up Garage.

and skylines are everywhere in the city bleh.
have fun man, cya when i get back to frisco.

kingsol
07-13-2005, 03:00 AM
ok guys, i found a bunch of stores here in tokyo taht had a ton of parts, but sadly none of them had the stuff you guys wanted. i got a couple of shiftknobs some spacers and multilink that i`ll bring back for whoever. and i wish i saw the posts earlier because my money went quick (i found the KTS headquarters). but yeah, sorry again for not finding much.

95zilvia, i tried somee of the stuff on that list, and i`ll try the other stuff too. and they only had bottom mount rails here.

i love it here, see you guys when i get back to the city.
