Jose,
Why would Japan have any parts for N or Z 600? Weren't they export
only? I have been selling parts back to Japan for years. One guy
wanted sedan struts, another guy ordered 3 starters, 3 stators, 3
flywheels, 3 sets brushes, 3 sets aluminum housings to convert their
Dynastart N400's to use the American parts. Also sold them 3 brake
master cylinders etc.
I have had luck ordering parts from Japan for the S600's though. As
far as I have heard, since Mr Honda died, they have not produced
parts for quite some time.

Hi Miles, and group;
Isn't it about time we get together and ask Honda to provide a listing of
what when where? I have heard that the Honda 600 was sold in Japan but in
very small numbers due to the parking issues. (360cc cars can park just
about anywhere, but anything larger has to have an off street parking space.
I would think this is a good reason for small numbers being sold. The
places I have been to in Japan the streets in town were not much more than
goat paths. But the 360 vehicles maneuvered through them with ease.
I would really like to know where they all went. Not just USA, but every
where.

When I visited Japan last September, I tried a dozen part numbers for a Japanese Z360 at a Honda dealer. The parts guy typed them all into the computer and they were all discontinued. Also, when I visited the Honda museum, they thanked my friend in the N360 Enjoy club for providing parts for their museum restorations (so Honda obviously didn't have them anymore).
There are alot of NOS parts in the Yahoo Japan auctions. But all they auctions state that they won't ship outside of Japan. So we need to find a middleman over there (who speaks English) to bid on the auctions and ship to us. I have a friend in Japan who said he would help me, but now he tells me he is too busy! Plus the parts get pretty expensive when you add double shipping and a cut for the middleman.
Here's an link to N360 parts currently up for auction...

replace the N360 with N600 or Z360 to look for more parts.

Hi Ken
I have a friend in Japan that buy all my parts, If he can't fin them in the
Collectors market the he go and buy it in the Yahoo Actions.
It is expensive because of the Bank fees Taxes, shipping in Japan and
shipping to the US. I bought 2 sets of 600 wheels,
S800 Mirrors, Z GT Mirrors and other parts with no problem.
Some times he send me the parts and then he let me know how mush is the
total. If anyone need some parts let me know before Feb. 12, 04. I have to have 2
more surgeries and I'll be out of commission for 2 or 3 weeks. I have a paypal
account set up to make payments.
