Just landed in Japan....parts?


Recommended Posts

So I just landed in JApan today...currently sitting in my hotel room in Tokyo, but I am checking out this morning and will be in Yokohama for the week.

 

I didn't plan on it, but during my flight over here I thought why not try to get some parts for the Leggy since I am here.

 

Has anyone done this before? What were your experiences with buying it your self here versus ordering online like from japanparts or through one of the vendors on LGT.com?Cost benefit? Percentage savings?

 

I am actually thinking about a few items, but not sure how practical it will be to try and carry it back with me...or should I ship it.

 

Looking at the following:

 

http://www.japanparts.com/images/ImageFromDB.php?base=1&no=12694 This is a direct bolt on to my 05 wagon right? I hope to make it to a Suby dealer and check to see if these parts are even on hand. I believe these can be had for about 1300 bucks...please correct me if I am wrong.

 

Jdm Pinks for the wagon

A set of Spats maybe

LED rear tailights

Anything else a must buy here because of the cost savings?

 

I was here about 6 months ago and stayed in Tokyo. I will be in Yokohama this time, what should I expect to see there as far as shops? A friend told me I have to hit up Autobacs.

 

Also one other thing.....when going to the shop all I should need to mention is that I have a Legacy BP right? Most exterior BP parts should be a direct fit to me 05 wagon?

Thanks for the help......i walked around my hotel last night....pretty much right next to the Yokohama Stadium where the Bay Stars baseball team plays. No look yet with any shops......although I hear autobacs and Up Garage is somewhere in the area.

Super Autobacs is off "Shin-Takashima Station" using the Minato-Mirai Line.

Thats where it is (Green Arrow)

Above the Green Arrow is the Red Dotted Square which denotes the Minato-Mirai Line.

The Red Rectangular Box above "Gento Yokohama" is the "Shin-Takashima" Station.

2 Min walking Distance from the station heading South.

Good Luck.

Go Shinjyuku-Kabukichiyou or Yoshiwara to try so called SOAP LAND.

 

Most Japanese Soap Land you talk about don't accept Non-Japanese Client unless you are talking about BLING BLING.

But you can always go to the Hostess Bar where all the nice girls are. ;)
