Okay, so I don't have a xB/bB yet, but I am currently looking for one, in my price range. I have my typical Scion ricer key chain I picked up at a car show in Ca. I have my cool books, and bB magazines etc.... but I just need the cash to buy one. I wish I could pick up a 5spd, but they don't have them here. Although there is that AWD option... If you haven't gathered I am in Japan. A suburb of Tokyo to be exact. Well.. here I am and hello.

 

Welcome to the forum!

 

This might be the beginning of a good relationship. LOL
Do you feel like shipping to the states?I'm sure there are lots of people that could use some "Real" JDM parts at a good price.

i'll send u five bucks if you get one within the next 6 months. NOW....go make some money and join the xB/bB's *winks*

 

since you're there and all, maybe you could hook us up with JDM parts and in turn we'll hook you up with some scion parts(if you're into that).

 

^^^Thats actually what i was thinking.

Welcome to the forum too!

 

I am only going to be here for another 3 years, so it's hard to find a bB in the price range I want to spend. But I my wife and I have decided on getting an xB when we get back to the states. After riding in my buddie's in norcal, I want one bad.

As for parts, if you want something let me know. I have access to junk yards, parts shops, and the ever exclusive Japan Yahoo auction account ;)

Anyone looking for a new silver bB grill? I was given it by a guy at a local shop because I was interested in his bB, and I had the pimp Scion keychain.

 

Dude--export the JDM parts and get yourself a downpayment.

 

well, what is it that you all want?

 

anything bb or ist...if it's made for it i know somebody will buy it. look around the junkyard and price what you see ask if anybody wants one if they do... buy and ship, that way you don't waste your money

 

Well, if you could look around and see how much coilovers would be, that would be awesome. I think people here would buy anything as long as we can get it to work with the xb!!

 

Just letting you all know, I spent 8 years in Atsugi, Japan and I can tell you that parts for the bB are NOT cheap. If you want the good looking stuff it costs alot. Shipping large items to the states is rough too. I wish I had brought more Japanese bB stuff back with me before I left there. Also, there is not that much aftermarket stuff there that you can't get here. My brother-in-law has had a bB for the past 5 years and is begging me to send him my OEM headlights. Just thought I would throw that out there! Good luck!

 

Atsugi... ahh cheap gas! I am at Zama... Anyways, bB stuff isn't cheap, but sometimes I run across something that is cheap. there are a set of coilovers at the Machida Up Garrage, I will be heading out there tommrow to pick up an exhaust for my AE86 anyway, I will get more info. xBtuner is right though, there is little I can get here that you can't get in the states, but there are some stock things I can pick up that will be cheaper. Espically since the bB is now a few years old.

Anyone want this Silver grill?

 

You got pics of the grille?

 

Today I was out parts hunting for my AE86, and I saw a bB "elcamino" today. It was in that burnt orange chopped behind the rear seat. Had a small truck bed and a tail gate... anyone ever hear of that?

I also ran across a set of very nice and complete JIC Magic Profit 1's. Front and rear with srpings, pearches etc. They were asking 88,000yen, which is about $860. If anyone wants them please let me know, and I can go pick them up for you. I have to go out and get exhaust for my car this week, so the trip isn't out of my way, just pay cost+shipping and they are yours. Email me if you would like....

 

that bB you saw was a bB open deck. awesome lil car , well minus the ugly bars running atop the roof and into the cargo area. thats a good price for jic coils.
