Japan Shenanigans

So in a couple of months, myself and a few others will be traveling to Japan. I was wondering if any of you knew any good places to shop for small items for the twins out there, don't care to ship it to myself just things that I could get for cheaper in the Motherland of the twins and could fit in my luggage, so mostly cosmetic. I will be visiting Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto and we'll be there for a little more than a week.

Any help would be appreciated.

Unless it's a 9 day vacation that would be precise, because 3 days at tokyo, koyoto, and osaka is understandable.

Are you Japanese man? You sound Japanese I never heard anyone say tie unless it was a tight schedule or some Japanese accent on the internet...trolololol

Hmmm... 7 days to visit three cities that are about 1/2 day apart by Shinkansen. Not much time to do shopping. Are you going sight-seeing? If so, even less time...


You can buy a lot of "JDM" cosmetics doodads here in the US. Rather than trying to find the same stuff at a (possibly) cheaper price, you should just go to the large auto accessory stores like Autobacs* and look for things you can't find here. Like Hentai air fresheners... or something.


* Not sure if Autobacs is still in business in Japan. They tried to open a few stores here in SoCal but I believe they all failed which often times is the first step for the home office failure...

Get off plane, buys a 86/brz tuning magazine. Visit the shop on the magzine. There I planed it for you.

I'm actually not joking, if you speaks japanese ofcourse.


If you don't, go visit some Area 86 around the country & Subaru STI place in mikata, tokyo. Huh? How to get there? Type "STI Japan" on google map.



Forget one very important thing, Visit the redlight distract or just whatever love hotel in japan by the train stations. Girls give you points cards..................stack lots points & give it to me. Thanks. That's a great gift.


PS: Ofcourse Autobac is still in business in japan.


I think I actually give out the most info in this thread so far.

Just go to the Tokyo Bay Super Autobacs. They have a big 86/BRZ section. They are easy to get to from anywhere in Tokyo, they sometimes have English staff and they have the Tax Free service (duty free) if you bring your passport.

Take the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho line to Shin-Kiba, transfer to Rinkai line (40M walk), stop at the first stop Shinonome. Down the stairs and to your right (away from the waterfront side) 200M walk.

I often shop at the Ricoland right next door to that Super Autobacs.
