I was curious what people would get in Japan if they went over there. There is so much s13,s14,s15,180 stuff in Japan that a lot of people cant get over here.
One thing I would definetly get is a NISMO jacket. heh heh. My mind is boggled.

Kanekz - Ben at www.hybridperformance.com can get you pretty much any artical of nismo clothing. I was going to get the nismo overhauls but cannot justify $160 bucks. It takes a decent amount of time though.

Sorry it's not Nissan related, but I would get sunvisors for a del Sol. In fact, if you did, I'd pay you for 'em. Or, you could easily eBay them. Trust me, the USDM ones really blow. It may seem silly.
Oh, also, can I come? =) I would love to go to Japan. I'll ride in a suitcase.
I hear they (the Japanese folk) run away from you if you try to ask them a question or speak to them in english. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> They cross their arms in an "X" shape in front of their face and back away hurredly. I will (hopefully) find out this summer though!

I would have agree with the guys here who would buy clothes (jackets, overalls, etc). Reason is that you don't want to bring anything back that you have to declare or pay customs on.
Custom agent: Do you have anything to decalare?
Me: No (dragging cart with 4 rims boxes and FG hood)
I've been to Japan a couple time and its fun as hell. Ya know they sell Beer in 1 liter mini kegs in vending macheins!
