The design clearly looks like they're advan but I haven't seen them there in the link or ever before. Might be something worth getting for future "rare" ebay sell, lol

I have never shipped anything big items like wheels but, my friend did.
He said he paid over 35,000 yen via EMS for a complete set to U.S. that is approx. $435 (USD) (Not sure what size but, I am assuming very close)
.....I 've been trying to contact the seller for past 72 hrs that he is NOT replying-!!! ...Oh, well...... 
Thanks for the cool link! I have bookmarked it now.
Well, look what I found on the first page, Section "A". ADVAN A3E 
I don`t think the set I have posted are ADVAN but, something very close.
I just hope the seller will get back with me soon.....

Yes, I think it is a long separated "cousin" of A3E...that might be something really rare....!

Sorry, but, I gave up.
I asked the seller (1) basic question that is "Any damage (bent)?"
His reply was "What do you expect for used set!? "......

I was going through used-car sites today and found my old EP91 for sale in City of Sapporo (Hokkaido).
I am glad to see this car is still alive 1,200km away from me. 
As soon as I saw the photo(s) I knew it was my old car.
For some reason, as soon as I discovered that this was my old car, this "weird feeling" start to growing inside of me.
(Not sure exactly why that I am not able to explain.....  ) Fun "little monster" that I don't mind having as my daily again.

Another huge step forward on my project "black interior".
Today, I have acquired OEM Levin Kouki Seats. Passenger Seat (SUPER MINT) 
Complete Rear Seat (Both Bottom and Back Rest + Trunk Mat) 
Now, I need to make my decision on what to do with my driver seat since it is nearly impossible to locate one in mint condition. Most likely, I am going with aftermarket that there are just too many to pick from.
Decision.....decision....before my "treasure" becomes her bed....

Well, you can always have a Bride or a Recaro, but not a mint original seat. I'd go for that just for the added value to the car

Yes, I took your guys advise & decided to go with OEM seat. Well, here it is.....
Seller lives only 20 miles away from me but, I asked him to ship it anyway since it was around $25.00 to ship. Just look at the way he shipped.
I have absolutely no complain....he build wooden crate for my seat. 
All 4 corners were secured as well....this guy is just too much!!!
I can totally imagine how his AE86 is treated. 
Most important thing, THE CONDITION.
Once again, I am glad that I bought this. EVERYTHING is working, air pump, side lumber support, bottom cushion adjuster, no funny smell, no damage on both cloth and back panel. 
This weekend is going to be busy that I can`t wait to install my black interior!

YES, that is correct.
My stock interior was BLUE that it is really hard to locate replacement parts that I have decided to change to full BLACK like my old GT-S that I used to own in Cali. | Quote, originally posted by YoShImUrA53 » | | Schweeeeet! |
Thank you.

Seller did mentioned that he did his best packing but, I was not expecting anything like this..... It took me nearly 2 years to collect all these items!!
I`ve been driving like this for past 3 days that I can`t wait to install everything very soon....Wish me for a sunny weekend!

Thank you sir.
As you may have noticed by now, it is quite a challenge to locate any good condition OEM parts here in Japan as well. Good luck.
