I'm going for at least a year, supporting only myself, and I'll need to have around this much to make sure I can survive.
For a family of four, this will not be enough. Take into account key money when renting an apartment, which is 4-6 month's rent paid up front before you can even live in the place.
If you're serious about this, I'd highly suggest finding a job yourself over there; selling things on eBay will only get you so far. Consider also the global economy's effect on Japan living right now, and with only $8,000 to start you guys off, it'll be next to impossible to make it for the 5 of you.
