Going to Japan in the summer

[casperxkidds]

So I'm planning a trip with my best friend to japan in the summer, but we're unsure where we should go. We are really into cars, and I wondered if anyone knew of any places of interest we would want to check out. also, we were thinking of stopping off at junkyards and getting stuff for our cars so if anyone knew of any good junkyards also

Thanks, anyone who posts back hopes to hear from you guys soon.

Toyota has some nice show rooms, but I don't recall were. For specialty shows you will have to do some research.

By way of parts, you are looking to bring parts for your cars back from Japan? If so be aware that some parts on the same cars are not always interchangeable between countries. The same model in Japan may have a different engine, transmission etc. than the same model in the states.

I don't recall ever seeing any junk yards in Japan. I am sure they have some kind of recycling for wrecked vehicles, but they are probably crushed/recycled quickly. I may be wrong though.

Good luck
