Have fun though, it's a great place for the car culture.ĭon't know any actual shops but I think you'd have better luck in Hiroshima (including Hiroshima Prefecture). Last I was there I didn't have my Miata, so I'm afraid that's the extent of what I know. If you have time, track down a Mazda dealership and you'll be able to order any OEM parts if you have the part number. A big part of it is basically a glorified Toyota showroom, but the historic garage should not be missed.

There's a history museum there that is AMAZING. It's not exclusively Mazda related, but near there the Tokyo Teleport stop on the same Rinkai line (IIRC like 2 stops before Shinonome coming from central Tokyo?) there's the Toyota Megaweb. In Tokyo, I went to the Super Autobacs that's right a block away from Shinonome station on the Rinkai line, and that was super cool. I haven't sent them an email but yeah, apparently very easygoing and approachable to foreigners. I'll be in Japan again next year in the early summer, and I've pretty much universally heard that Corn's is a great place to visit. I already contacted Corn's and received a nice answer from them. I'm thinking about getting a few JDM parts while I'm over, of course mainly small, light stuff I can take in my luggage.ĭo you have any suggestions for shops in Tokyo (or Kyoto) I could visit? What would you buy that's hard or expensive to get in Europe and the states? I'm the proud owner of a '91 MX-5 and I'm going to spend 2 weeks in Japan later this fall.
