Trip to Japan

I am traveling to Japan. Any suggestions on parts for a WRX02 wagon I am likely to find there that I can not get here (and can be brought back with me). I'd like to get a motor, but it just will not fit in my suit case! Suggestions?

I'm staying with a relative who lives near "some big subaru tuning place" but he doesn't know the name. John

i have a friend that is from japan- he said that he recommends jun auto in tokyo. he also said that if you are there long enough that you should look in the newspapers/magazines and order the part(mailed to where you are staying)they will be much cheaper that way. plus if you bring them back to the u.s. i believe that the limit of value is around 800 bucks or so. anything over that and you will be taxed(something like 2 percent).
