Here is the link to the IMPEX website for the part: New parts search — IMPEX JAPAN - https://en.impex-jp.com/parts/new/search.html?partNo=83180-60040%09

I think all the Japan based part suppliers (Amayama, Megazip, IMPEX) are Russian-origin companies. If you look at baza.drom.ru you see similarities with Amayama's logos etc.

I've had good experience with IMPEX - they are great at price and finding parts, but they are extremely slow. They also have a lot of very bad reviews online, though plenty of these are from people too lazy/stupid to read their T&Cs.

Yeah, I know about baza.drom.ru and use it regularly – they have lots of spare parts from japanese rhd vehicles. That's where I got my tach + sensor combo for about 150$ without shipping Some parts ad rare thingies are extremely cheap compared to what you can find

I have my eye on a couple of parts on Russian websites, the trouble is getting them out of Russia. Are Drom vendors typically happy to ship to Georgia? I had something shipped to Kazakhstan last year, but KZ is in the Eurasian Customs Union, which I believe Georgia is not part of.

No, Georgia isn't a part of this economic union, which makes some things easier but some more complex. The vendors can technically ship parts via CDEK (cdek.ru) but it's gonna be more expensive because of the fact that it's an international shipping. Making payments is also an issue because of the sanctions, since they accept funds only in rubles within the ru banking system.

For me personally it's faster and cheaper to have the parts shipped within Russia to Vladikavkaz by CDEK and then my acquaintance who lives there drives to Tbilisi and back regularly and brings them to me for a fee.

So, as anything, it can be done but can be a PITA because of the current state of affairs.
