i'm going to japan in the fall

going to be my second time, but the first time i'm going where i didn't have a day's notice .
is there any particular cool JDM stuff that i could pick up while im there that would be cheaper to get or not be able to get shipped here?

other than that, anything cool i should check out? I will be in tokyo for one weekend then in nagasaki for the next two weeks afterwards. I dunno if i can set up a honda or other japanese auto factory tour or not.

Please pick me up a JDM Honda Accord! BTW, here are a couple rough pics of the Honda offices in Tokyo that I took back in November:

^ You can hand carry the JDM accord. I want some JDM ice cream. lol


You may want to see how much the JDM deck lid spoiler cost and bring some here to sell. I'll buy one if the price is right.....

i will be in tokyo for a day, and then nagasaki for two weeks. i got the weekend free to go wherever i want. i wonder if there's a honda tour of a factory i can do anywhere?? i think the kumamoto factory is near nagasaki, but it seems like they only make parts, and saitama is near tokyo
