    So, I bit the bullet and ordered a rebuilt carb for my 1994 HiJet from Don - at YokohamaMotors.net.

    I emailed their info@ email address and got a reply that evening from Don.

    After swapping my VIN and some preliminary questions, I was given a grand total including shipping.
    I paid via PayPal and was sent a USPS tracking number the next afternoon.

    I ordered the carb on Wednesday.
    I got the trackin ifo Thursday and was VERY surprised when USPS dropped it off Saturday morning around 10am.

    I'm approx 2 hours from Louisville and ~3 hours from Indianapolis.

    The carb arrived nicely boxed and in a plastic bag.

    The carb was around ¥27300 yen plus ¥4700 shipping.
    The dollar to yen conversion was around $306 total for carb and shipping.

    I'm not sure if this will help anyone but I had a great experience with Yokohama motors.

    Your mileage may vary.

    Most excellent,

    I hope guys will give the process a chance.
    I just did a quick conversion for the DD51t Carburetor and it comes up to a total of $307 with 4700JPY in there. Slight differences for locations I'm sure, but I'll put in an order for the next repair session and give it a go. It's not like he can't get anything, right?

    I sure hope he can connect to Canpost out of CYYZ or even CYVR.
    OEM is best of course.

    Thanks for posting. I thought most guys just needed a little affirmation of a good experience with the overseas experience.

    FEEL FREE TO ADD HERE GUYS...
