Default Leaving for Tokyo tomorrow morning - anything I should pick up?

No I do not want a $300 ARC oil filler cap.

Anything JDM I can pick up worth picking up while I'm over there?
The catch is that I need to be able to carry it with me on an airplane.

Open to suggestions.

RHD GT-R shift knob. It replaces the 7AT shift knob and has the correct M-D pattern.

Lug nuts, rad cap, shift knob? Maybe you could find a nice diecast 370z model?

Here are some more affordable ideas http://www.nengun.com/nissan/370z-z34

Red chrome extended lugs would be pretty awesome.

A couple of SR20 motors would pull a premium 1 week before race wars.

You should've known better than to ask this group that question. Your car is set up pretty nicely and I am not to familiar with the JDM part scene. Maybe just look up a good Nissan shop over there and ask them where a good parts selection is and browse their collection and see if something jumps out at you.
In the meantime, a Fujimura body kit in Black Cherry would be great!

I'll take a girlfriend... you know... if that's something you'd be willing to take back with you.

If you're thinking you're gonna get a good deal on nissan parts/pieces, you're gonna be disappointed.. I went over there a few times, and their prices are pretty equivalent to ours.

In a LOT of cases the prices are MORE expensive. But you'd save on shipping/wait time

Yup, this is true..

Although Japan is very pretty and oddly very quiet for being soo over populated.
