old japanese cranks

Hey, I have a friend in japan right now who offered to go part hunting for me, i was wondering what i should have her look for? Suntour, Shimano, any others? I'm looking for nice vintage if I can...

She already found me some double toe straps for 35 bucks because the old guy who ran it thought I was some American Keirin racer...

Keirin-related stickers, patches, etc. Seriously - stuff like that is always cool.
