Ordering JDM Parts

Absolutely! We've got you covered when it comes to sourcing JDM parts for your imported vehicle.

So, sit back, relax, and get ready to upgrade your ride with some seriously cool JDM goodies!

  • After you've chosen the parts you want, simply email all the links along with your shipping address to Japantopcars@gmail.com.
    ‣ Please specify the maximum bid for each item or indicate if you prefer to "buy-now".

Ordering JDM Cars

  • To buy a car from our inventory via a bank transfer, please email your details to Japantopcars@gmail.com. You can either contact us or wait for Noor to reach out to you!
  • If you're interested in buying a car from an auction, please follow these steps:
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ‣ Ensure you have deposit ready.
    ‣ Once you’ve identified the car you want to buy, provide Noor with the following:
    - Auction link
    - Your maximum bid
    - Time remaining on auction
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  • Most used auction sites are below:
    https://www.goo-net-exchange.com/
    https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/

Once payment is completed, Noor will handle all export-related tasks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After that we will send you a Bill of Lading confirming that the vehicle is on the ship.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once your vehicle is on the ship, it's recommended to contact an import broker. They will coordinate with the shipping company to provide you with an estimated arrival time at the port and confirm the release date of your vehicle. Once your car is released, the broker will send you all necessary documentation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once you have all the paperwork, you can either hire a transporter or try to collect your car from the port yourself.

Am I able to ship any car to the USA or Canada?

  • USA
    ‣ For cars to be shipped to America, they must be at least 25 years old according to the manufacture date stamped. We offer storage solutions in Japan if you're interested in buying a newer vehicle and waiting for it to become legally importable.
  • Canada
    ‣ Cars being shipped to Canada must be at least 15 years old according to the manufacture date stamped. We also offer storage options in Japan if you want to buy a newer vehicle and wait for it to become legally importable.

What is the cost of car shipping?

Expect anywhere from $2500 and up. Due to the numerous factors involved, we can only offer exact shipping costs during the purchase process.

What is the typical timeframe for car shipping?

On average, it takes between 4 to 10 weeks from the time of purchase to the unloading at the US/Canada side port.

Certainly, we can accommodate various installations, from minor upgrades like wheels and seats to more significant modifications such as full body kits, engine swaps, and brake kits. For any requests, please reach out to Noor on Facebook.
