PS they'll send you anything but, think about the shipping charges when calculating the total. Sometimes it's better to just order from the guys listed above or in my SIG.

Re: how do i order jdm parts from japan? (Jordo)
would you share with us how you get through customs so easily?
And, what does your SIG:"Either 2000 FBP civic si or a 2001 FBP ITR" mean? Do you have either car or are you getting one or both?

Only plastic items and ECU can get through without customs. But there is a way if you know customs agent and shipping company reps. I've gotten items through customs alot cheaper and some cases free through contacts I've made through couple shipping companies overseas and here. Also it depends on who sends it declares a value as which custom bases a certain percentage of duty per item. Every item that comes over fits into different catogories.
Tyres fit into 3 for passenger cars. DOT approved, Non DOT approved, and Custom or Racing only or FIA approved. Depending on which you have you normally have to fill out documentation depending on item..which is what is a brokerage is for.
But the bypass this you can send things via reg postal mail which you only tend to pay customs on if the person sending marks it as shop owned and actual price. If normally marked gift and maybe 1-10 dallors...customs normal has no charge..but this is only with small to med size items...not like wheels and tyre and body parts.

Re: how do i order jdm parts from japan? (Reid)
Nope a fat North American Deer killed my passenger fender and I careened into a Cement highway barrier at about 80 MPH! It certainly wasn't a fun experience. I spun 2 times and am lucky to be alive. The deer limped away. the Trooper tried to follow the blood trail, "he asked me if I wanted it" but, it was 3 AM and we both just wanted to call it a night.
Thanks though Reid, Sorry for the mixup, there have been lotsa thefts near me but mine has been spared for now. I drive it everyday with a smile on my face. I never knew what I had till I wrecked the PY it was quite a loss but, it's just a car and they can be replaced.
And bacheson it's: "You're a loser!"

Wow, they are still in business? I've received better email replies, etc from Dan then these people.
Like it was noted, their prices are "cheap" but do not include the shipping costs involved.

First go take a few Japanese courses, then go buy a plane ticket to goto Japan, and then go get whatever you want, then hand carry it back with you. 
Well, depend on what exactly you are looking for, sometime it is much cheaper to buy it from their distributor in North America.
