Ordering parts from japan

I heard you can get motor parts straight from japan with even outrageous shipping costs for way cheaper then they seller them here. Anyone know how to order parts straight from the factory ???

You can't order directly from the Japanese factories, as they won't sell to individuals. However, I order from Friends of mine in Japan all the time, and the prices are cheaper. Keep in mind the exchange rate sucks right now, whereas a year ago, the prices were 20% cheaper.



Start emailing Japanese retailers and you'll find one who speaks english and will ship parts to the us.

Are you going to sell parts seperate, for the guys to upgrade? also did you get the intakes in?
Yes I will sell a kit it will include our 3 valve head and new cases so you can in stall our monster 57.5 mm piston .



I will getting the intakes while I'am over there I do have some instock right now
how are you getting more than 124cc

I thought that was as big as you can go
54 mm is the biggest you can get out of your stock cases.



vince has cases pre-bored to obviously allow a 57.5 mm piston.

Correct me if I am wrong, but dont you have to bore for the 54mm?



Vince is I believe going to use a different stud spacing, that will allow bigger than 54mm....



Also on Vince(skindoner)/rcmotors/lifan/etc. 86cc that he sells, it will except up to a 54mm
You don't have to bore a 52mm, but I am 90% sure you have to bore for a 54mm.
52mm piston (88, 106) you dont have to bore the cases.

54mm piston (95 +) you have to bore the cases. The reason you dont with the 106 is because its just a 88 stroked. You use the same piston as the 88.

you are 100% correct.



when i said the statement above that you quoted, I meant that 54mm is the biggest you can get out of stock cases being bored. sorry for not making myself more clear.
