Japanese whiskey if you're into it. Specifically Mars and/or Nikka. Have a fun trip!

I'm not sure what you should bring back, but I suggest checking out Super Autobacs Tokyo Bay. When I was there back in January (I went to the Tokyo Auto Salon) there were a lot of 86/BRZ parts. It's worth going to see what they have and some of the cars being worked on there were great

Don't waste money or time at Super Autobacs, totally overpriced. Go to Upgarage's website and do a search for ZN6 and see what they have you can get.
