    Greetings from Denmark!
    Having worked and lived in Japan some years ago, I always loved these little busses, now I finally found one, but since they were never sold here, I find it very difficult to find spare parts..... Any suggestions ?

    Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your purchase.

    Can’t help you out on parts, I’m in the US.

    Martin, I have seen several UK eBay sites that sell parts along with a Russian site.

    Below are some I have used in the US.

    I have an order in with these guys in Japan, but this is the first time I have done business with them. Another member has used them and had good luck.

    Good luck finding parts.
     
  5. I love your subi van! I have a Mitsu Van myself that had a roof rack before I bought it (can see where it used to mount to the gutter). Any idea on where I can get one like yours? Mine has the high roof like yours and I can’t find tall enough gutter mounts/towers to clear the high roof.

    I imagine I could be searching for one for a long time!

    Check these sites that ship to the states:

    Megazip.net

    Yokohamamotors.com

    Megazip is my go to for parts. They are easy to deal with and ship worldwide. They were the only site among all the ones suggested and a few more that I tried who actually had a oil pan for a K6A engine when mine got too bashed up to repair.

    Hello!
    Any news about your Subaru van? Does it run smoothly?
    How much satisfied are you ?

    If you have gutters, you can mount Yakima 1A towers. If they aren’t tall enough, they make extenders for them. Since most vehicles no longer have rain gutters, you can find them pretty inexpensively on eBay, if you’re patient.

    Another source for parts is directly from Japan. There is a guy who imports parts for the JDM crowd. Jesse Streeter https://jessestreeter.com/.
