Check the Japan section at the Regional Forums at alibaba. Also there are a lot of sites dealing with the Japanese etiquette, look them up. What I can tell you it won't be easy to sell to Japanese people.

I agree with Gabor.
Japanese customers are one of the toughest groups to deal with. One of the main reasons is that China is so close to Japan that purchasers from Japanese companies can spend a lot of time in China trading your products and prices off against other factories. So even if you are offering great quality at great prices you may find a good deal of pressure from them.
Another factor to consider is short shipping times and payment methods.
