OEM Soko: Japanese business supplying Automotive items from Japan - Freebie inside!

[Rezz]

With permission granted from the SAU admin (thanks Christian!) I'd like to introduce a new website "OEM Soko" (OEM -> Original Equipment Manufacturer, Soko -> Warehouse) https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/

It's a family business registered in Japan and owned by my wife (Japanese) with myself running the website and shipping side and doing all the English translations/dealing with clients in English. My son is also involved part time while studying. The business has been registered since 2016 but never promoted outside Japan until now due to other obligations. 

So what service does OEM Soko offer? In a nutshell: Anything worth shipping from Japan via Japan Post EMS. It's primary focus is Automotive accessories and hobby related items such as model cars etc, however there's also a "Vintage Soko" section dealing with used items and categories like Car cleaning and Tools. There's also a category "Nifty items" which includes any items we come across that are a) made in Japan, and b) have some sort of "nifty" attribute. 

By all means please take a look and let me know your thoughts or any feedback here in this thread. We're updating the products all the time and although it's not 'populated' so much at this stage, by checking up on what's new I'm sure there'll be something to pique your interest!

* As an introductory offer to SAU members we'll throw in a "Car Wash Japan" Made in Japan 30cm x 30cm microfiber cloth with any order regardless of value! Just put your SAU member name and a link to your SAU profile in the "Order special instructions" section in the Shopping Cart (see attached image) to receive this free gift! 🙂👍

We're always open to any request for items from Japan no matter what it is, automotive related or not, so by all means please use the Contact form to send your request here! :  https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/pages/contact

1/43 BCNR33 Nissan Skyline GT-R Clarion Nismo LM by MTECH

Released in 1996, this rare MTECH/Epoch BCNR33 Nissan Skyline GT-R Clarion Nismo LM is a faithful reproduction of the actual vehicle that raced at Le Mans the previous year. This vehicle's fame increased when it was featured in Sony Playstation game Grand Turismo 1 & 2 as the "NISMO GT-R LM Race Car '95". It features basic engine detail and reasonably accurate interior details. A fine addition to any collection where nostalgia is the focus!

OEM Soko is in the process of securing Nakago brand artisan tin drinkware as a partner supplier.

We can offer assistance to supply Nakago products (domestic Japan shipping or international), and also if you're intending to visit the Kansai region in Japan, we can assist with reserving spots in Nakago's workshop to enjoy making your own one-of-a-kind sake cup.

Something a little different....

Assembly videos of DeAgostini's 1/8 scale Fast & Furious BNR34 Nissan Skyline GT-R. Starting from issue 28 as the original intention was to obtain all 110 weekly issues then do a 'super cut' video. The boxes were taking up too much space so we start from #28:

Price drops on most of the scale model cars for the end of summer! 😅

Some nice Nismos in there. If you missed it from the original post, SAU members get a free microfibre cloth from Car Wash Japan. Once they run out we'll update it to another item:
