Where To Buy Cheap Parts In Japan?


Recommended Posts

I'm after a few things but i'm not sure what exactly is cheaper and worth getting over there you know?!

After Nismo 550cc injectors for RB25 and also I'd like to see if turbos are cheaper over there.. if anyone knows?!

Its ALL cheaper there, if you know where to look.

I missed your last call, but if you give me another ring I can give you the directions to the must see places around Tokyo & Chiba

i am japanese and they still tell me no!!! its not the language, i think they cant be bothered...

Exactly right... the guys I talked to (SuperAB, MOH) all were too busy with work from their Japanese customers, let alone some Aussie mofos 10,000km's away...

Btw, I'm now "an Aussie mofo" 10,000km away from Japan... WOOHOO!

just paid 1000 dollars worth of bills today. That should answer your question

well I just bought a pretty decent 250cc bike with 16k kms on it for $550 last week

and I can get all you can eat yakiniku ( kind of steak) with rice and all you can drink soft drinks for about $16... its not always that bad :(

anyway on topic, PRESA you have PM

Edited by Streeter
cheap yakiniku = mad cow disease... watch out!

Whats funny is that Aussie beef is cheaper and better with out the risk of mad cow... kind of makes you wonder how any American beef gets sold here at all!?!?

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
