I'd like to see some ichikoh's imported, I've only been able to find chromes ones.

I'd also like to see carrozzeria TS-DRC1BB imported: http://www.horidashi.jp/parts.html?pid=519958 (they are getting kind of rare on yahoo auctions)

Cravin · 04-08-2007, 10:34 PM

I would be interested in Ichikoh head lights black ones.

XBCreep · 04-08-2007, 10:59 PM

I'd like to get ahold of a set of chrome side mirrors that are under the brand name "Dukes" I haven't seen them for sale anywhere, but have seen pics of them around. See if I can dig them up if needed.

I'd love to see a pic of them. I've never heard of them. :P

I know you won't be able to ship big stuff out for awhile, but I'm sure the further in advance you have, the more time you'll have to find parts. I'm not looking to buy, right NOW, but in the near future. As I said before, it's a kit that's been discontinued for quite some time, and parts only show up on yahoo japan auctions maybe once in a very, very blue moon.

Very well written intro.

I think you’re about to become pretty popular

.

Do you think you could find these speakers? They attach in the very back windows. I honestly think they would be out of my price range, but I believe some of the hardcore JDM folks would wet themselves for them. (BTW these are on Orataro’s ride. He could probably give you more details.)

BTW if anyone knows of a hookup for a knockoff of these that don’t cost an arm & a leg please pm me. I’ve never found one.

ScottyTuned · 04-09-2007, 12:04 AM

Naw theres no knockoffs of the Pioneer Carrozzerias. Just gotta buck up for the real thing. Pretty cool piece, but I dont think I could personally justify the price for some speakers that light up in teh window.

Pretty much anything manufactured by Work, SSR, AME (Enkei), or eqivalent quality etc. and in nice xB fitment (From 15" to 18". Anywhere from 7.5-9" wide. Offsets ranging from +25 to +10 roughly.)

Being that there are too many wheels to name, I'm pretty sure there are plenty here on these boards that would like high-qualty, low-offset wheels at used prices. Some would probably be intersted in a multiple sets...lol

What would be your shipping method for wheels?

katchkillah · 04-09-2007, 01:53 AM

^^^^hehehehe. multiple sets. different shows different setups. LOL. hey sent a pm. love your intro though.

kentae80 · 04-09-2007, 02:21 AM

Would like to get info on the Espiler Active Super Down Springs part #ESA066? Pro's and con's compaired to the Tein S Tech's, Tenzo's, and Tonabe DF210's

ScottyTuned · 04-09-2007, 02:51 AM

Pretty much anybody here in the states can get that stuff. I dont know many people running them either with Espelir. You can look through suspension and brakes though for threads on how springs feel. Check eBay and some vendors though because those arent hard to find and have a US market also.

i would be interested in OEM JDM kouki HID headlights...would you be able to make a harness for these as well to make it plug and play??

surfcitylocal · 04-09-2007, 09:31 AM

Looking for a gauge pod for the passenger side A pillar.

keyfuss86 · 04-09-2007, 01:34 PM

JDM bB powerfolding side mirrors w/ built in LED turn signals!
do they even make um? i think that would be Cool!!

jdmisme · 04-09-2007, 05:36 PM

Ok, it's 6:30am and I've been typing this reply up for about the last 2 hours while researching parts. If your specific request is not mentioned in this post, that means that I know what needs to be looked for and I will be searching. Please take a look and see if your specific request is mentioned...in most cases, if it is mentioned, it means that I need a few more details concerning the part...

Wheels are very doable. I have sold many sets of wheels in the past. I would be shipping them via USPS Priority or Surface shipping. I have a contact who works on one of the U.S Military bases here. He mails my larger/heavier packages for me when a buyer chooses my optional USPS shipping method (this is all auction talk...). The items that he mails for me would be totally cost-prohibitive to ship via EMS. He charges a small fee which gets passed on to the buyers, but it's ever so slight compared to the mark up which would be seen shipping via EMS (and the fee is the reason that the USPS shipping method is optional...again, auction talk).

Is that tail light OEM or aftermarket? If OEM, is it the Kouki version? If aftermaket, what is the manufacture name? The headlight is the OEM zenki halogen version, correct?

I will be looking into this. More than likely, there is some kind of option light. I honestly coudn't answer the 4WD question without comparing the 2WD and 4WD versions for myself.

I'm glad that this was mentioned. I try to deal with JDM specific parts, only. The main reason is that I cannot get/give any real good deals with parts that are also available in any given persons own region...even on used aftermarket parts. This is all due to shipping costs. It could very well end up costing someone MORE money to get a USED aftermarket part from me, here in Japan, then it would be to get the part brand new from their part of the world. Also, it sounds bad, but the nail was hit smack on the head with the 'time' and 'profit' remarks. It's unfortunate, but true. The most valuable resource I have is my time. And it just so happens that it is my most scarce resource, also. There is NEVER enough time to source, pull and clean parts. Then take pics, post, answer questions throughout the post, package and then mail the items. Add in researching individual vehicles and this is actually quite time consuming. Thanks for bringing that up.

By this, I assume that you mean the Zenki type headlights like bB_Gunnz had shown a pic of in his post? If not, a pic would be great! Thanks.

Black would be aftermarket headlights? If so, doesn't the U.S./Canada have a never-ending supply which include many different types? This would fall under the above statement of being able to get them cheaper on your side of the pond...if they are aftermarket, that is.

Yes, as long as I can get the needed information pertaining to the wiring of the xB. Whenever splicing or cutting is normally needed to do a JDM modification, I always (if not too terribly time consuming or expensive) try to include a plug-n-play harness. This is actually one of the reasons why so many people have told me that they actually pass up items from other sources/sellers and wait until I have what they are looking for. That is actually one of my more favorite compliments that I receive from buyers...it let's me know that I'm doing something right!

Please don't think that I am flaming you or being condescending...that is not my intention with what I am about to say....but this is actually one of the more common mistakes when dealing with JDM parts. We never want to refer to a part only as the ''passenger side'' or ''drivers side'' without throwing in a "USDM" or "JDM" in front of it(ie..JDM passenger side). I would normally ASSUME that a person requesting a part means the "JDM" passenger or the "JDM" drivers side since they are looking for a JDM part, but my assumptions have been wrong, before. Do you mean JDM passenger side A-pillar or USDM passenger side A-pillar?

I have only seen mirror covers w/built in LED's. As far as I know, they go OVER the OEM mirror housing, not actually replace the existing housing....but I could be wrong.

We are referring to the same ones, as far as I can tell. The black headlights on ThunderGod's beast of a machine. I've only been able to find the chrome ones and I've seen similar posts across different xB forums on the same issue.

Edit: Here is the link to the chrome ones if that will help. http://www.bulletproofautomotive.com...il.php?ID=3473

They are aftermarket and the lenses are smoked.

Here is an auction that may help you get more info: http://page12.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p78297575

The ones in the auction are probably fake Besiege Wise bB LED Tail lights.
http://www.wisesports.co.jp/main.html

^^^^Either one of the above will do.

And yes, I'm looking for halogen zenki headlights.

of the people i know with real ichikohs, they painted theirs to matching body colors. don't recall hearing them in black. but i could be wrong.

Mightbegiant · 04-09-2007, 11:00 PM

Being as Canadian as I am, i'm really wanting to get my hands on a metric gauge cluster. As much as I love the look of MPH, getting one with kph on the top would be quite nice.

No flame taken, not used to writing on the other side of the page. I'm looking for an A pillar gauge pod for the driver side JDM. That would allow me to use it on the passenger side USDM.
