This small cross section of the parts bin that is TAS includes power parts, accessories, and a few novelties. Read on for the Tokyo Auto Salon 2015 best new JDM parts to be had...

JUN Auto cut its teeth tinkering with engine internals and the tuning shop/parts manufacturer is famous for its stroker kits and engine hard parts. This muscle-bound R35 GT-R engine sports an increase in displacement via forged parts and heavy duty valvetrain upgrades. Power depends on the bravery shown setting the boost.

A long standing JDM trend is mounting subway train handles as tow hooks. These take the vandalism out of the equation while adding a dash of cuteness.

What do GT86, Scion FR-S, and Subaru BRZ owners clamor for most? Boost. Blitz has a race-proven turbo system for street prowling Toyobarus. The kit is high quality and easy to install. I'd say this company needs to tap into the U.S. market.

The Enkei 92 is a renowned old school wheel. The news here is its now being offered in a 20-inch size. Will it now become an option for the VIP crowd?

Rays Engineering displayed its TE37 Concept, a TE37 forged to 22 inches. It’s so big it has to be either a VIP offering or perhaps an indication that Rays will be targeting the SUV market.

Zero Sports had a trick, roots style GT86 supercharger kit complete with composite intake tucked behind its counter.
