If you don’t mind me asking, how do you order parts from Japan? Are they cheaper than if you were to buy them in the U.S.?

Nengun is _ok_, but if you want a good place to order from, definitely go to [RHDJapan.com](http://RHDJapan.com) .

Ordered from them several times before.

Let me know if you’re interested in anything on their site, and have money. I’ll prolly order more stuff, then we could just split shipping cuz it’s not really cheap. For all of the above, I paid a little over $100 shipping through FedEx. Got here in 3-4 days.

Thank you sir! Don’t plan on doing huge things to the car, so just doing some small things for now to make it more of my own.

Yea, he’s a really good cat. Nine months old.  
We adopted him from a shelter, he was found w/ about 40 other cats in a barn.  
The place named him Skywalker, so we kinda just stuck with that, except I tend to just call him Luke.

Car needed some cosmetic trinkets Clark, things already oozing with enough performance goodies to keep Chris occupied no matter where he drives it(street or track) At least these little add-ons were all functional in some manner or another.

I’ve personally heard of several vehicles he’s tuned that have not been running much since his tune.

The previous owner was going to get it re-tuned by Ivey when it turned spring time as well, and he’s going to get the R34 tuned by him.

You realize that blue on it is just a plastic wrap for shipping purposes, right? Or is it the actual fabrication you’re not a fan of?
