Talking what i can get from japan

I have a few friends in okinawa japan who could possibly send a few small things from japan...japanese spec lights, shifters, and other small things hard to find in the us. Tell me a few things you guys would want japanese spec....i will see if i can locate them...through my friends. Note .....i cannot have them ship engines,seats, cost will be too much on big items. Let me know....

I'd be interested in a Power FC depending on cost but only if it is exactly the same as the A spec unit. Are the internals exactly the same? English instructions? How about english display on the commander?

Hey DARTH7, Mazda said they are not offering those parts yet, and are debating on weither to sell them to people that dont have the car.

AS for the POWER FC, some of its in english, but its in metric and the instructions are all in Japanese...

Sorry Guys

Please see what you can find out about engine torque braces - non rigid, made using adjustable oil filled shocks. I have heard they can be purchased around 160 USD.

...that's why you ask me nicely to send you the the Power FC instructions on CD format(adobe acrobat reader) that are in ENGLISH.

...and for the Record, I have the CHEAPEST Power FC to date. Around $650 for the Power FC AND commander. Power FC and commander were both less than a year old(and I do have the newest version of the commander.)

Anyways, back to the topic at hand...what sort of prices do you all have on pfc's over there? What would be the shipping prices to the states? (assuming everything is the same)

last year when is was in japan my friend tried to ship an R32 skyline but what they told him on base was that it wasnt worth it because he would have to ship it to mainland japan first. He also said he would have to change a **** load of stuff on it just to make it legal...all in all he was looking at close to $20,000 just to change it and ship it to the states....needless to say he didnt do it. I was actually trying to ship a s-13 sylvia but that didnt work out either...
