Off to Japan in July
No, I'm not going shopping for you.
But if you were in my shoes, would you pick up anything for your 7th gen that you just can't get here in the states? Other than that retarded newbie sticker I see every wannabe ricer proudly display next to their backwards '田本' decal?

Oh no! i feel it coming... i can't hold...
Could you bring me a Clay bar from JP?!? I heard from you that they do wonders

Kansai - the food is much better than Kanto (around Tokyo).
Down south the food tastes better, so lucky you! Fukushima was great too, in the shikoku. Up north is good too, i think only tokyo food needs more seasoning - too tasteless...
Try to see what tuning shops are famous around kansai and try to visit them

I agree, find out if there are any famous tuning shops and visit them.
On a side note, I'm surprised there's no one that lives in Japan on the site (or any site) that's willing to pick up rare parts and ship them to us for a small fee. That's a big business on clothing forums, I actually just used one last week to have a pair of jeans only sold in Japan shipped to me.

oh, yeah. forgot an important thing. If you do go to visit shops, give your wallet to your wife and have her decide how much to give to you. you still need to have a ticket back

I remember last time I blew 30,000 yen (nearly 300 bucks) in one night without even breaking a sweat. Surprising how fast that cash can go.
