Autobacs isn't that great... they have one here and it's almost identical. Look for UpGarage, GarageOff, and PartsOff for used stuff (not much used in the way of G35 parts - I did find an HKS exhaust for $350 though )... and Hirano Tire for new parts - you'll find some great deals there. It'll be hard to find most of the better places unless you have someone out there that knows where they're at. All the good shops I go to are in the country and not in the city.

As far as genuine Nissan parts, you can go to any Nissan dealer and order them directly... but it can take up to 2 weeks for some items and they won't ship to the US.

As far as shipping, you can ship a GIANT box that weights up to 32kg for about $220 through EMS (just go to the post office and they'll give you a spec sheet), and it'll get here in 3 days. Japan is awesome... you're going to love it!

oh, and +1 for the Japanese girls

Thanks! I really appreciate your advice and I will save this thread for the trip. I do know some people out there. So, hopefully I will be able to find some awesome places. I really can't wait.

Depends on what she considers "insane". I would say you're in a different country, its like the "what happens in vegas, stays in vegas" rule....

"Roppongi what?
No, no midgets,
No, no donkeys,
No, no Chopsticks
And it was just miso soup....$HIT!
There's no video, its a fake
Right babe?"

Let us know when you come back what your gf didnt consider "insane"......
