Might take my VX to Japan

[Jgauvin921]

I was stationed in Japan from 06 to 09. Japan is very very expensive. depending how long you will be there you will have to JCI your car which is a min of 500 then road tax is ever year that runs 180 because your car will be a E-300 plate E=imported from states and the 300=larger then a 2.4 liter. Insurance prices, all depends on your rank and size of motor when i was there we used AIU but all the insurance companies off base are usually the same price. they were around 180 for 3 months and that was because i was an e-4. If your tires stick pass your fenders they will not JCI it. if you want some after market parts or some cheap wheels and tires go to Upgarage.

Cool, thanks for the info. My tires currently do not stick out. As an E7, should be a bit cheaper, and I will worry about all that when the time comes. Hopefully the wife can teach english while we are there since she has her bachelors. They offered a job for her when we in Guam to go to japan to teach kids. Good money.
I have quite a bit of time to worry bout that. I will contact you later to get info.

Don't they give discounts to lower ranks? Or is it an age thing?

I think it is an age thing, jsut like here, or you can think of it like freebies, they give stuff to rich people who can afford it, and charge out the *** to us poor folk, makes no sense, but that is the way it is.
