dang blast it.

honest question.

How hard is it to bring parts back? I mean say I went over there and wanted to get like a set of 04 headlights and some other small stuff? Pack up a box......and fly it home? How much are those headlights over there?

What about something bigger...like a set of jdm wheels?

I ask because a friend of mine may be going soon and asked me to come. If I can't go I am thinking of asking him to snag me a few parts.

Too bad I can't stuff a car in my pants. Bring home and old school skyline or something.

Depends. Customs duties aren't that bad if everything is within your exemption (and USA is a lot more lax than Canada on that kind of stuff).

Shipping fees are a pain. Best way is to put it in your checked luggage, where you get like 35 kg (hooray flights to North America), and they have extra charges for extra luggage and oversize items.

Headlights should be easy. But then again you can get them from the dealer here, so why bother?

cuties, all in my head.... (good times)

i did not have an SD card so i only had 48 shots on low quality. so i got as many pics of cars as i could and the rest are pics of my family and i with our family who lives in Osaka and pics of stuff on our tours. family<pics of ladies, sorry guys.

firgured you can always see girls, i shoulda kept one of the pharmacy tho

OneManArmy- if you do go its pretty hard to get stuff back throuch customs, unless you buy it from a duty free store. I boughg my helmet from Alex of japan and it was Duty free.

Kazunori the owner can ship stuff like wheels and all sorts of JDM parts cheap he told me,

you can contact him at inquiries@alex-motorsports.co.jp

make sure you talk to him he speaks english best.
