You can make Tempura right?

I make the batter from scratch... flour, eggs, carbonated water/Club Soda [sometimes I use Sake instead of water] and panko flakes.

I probably murder the original recipe but it tastes good and its cheap.

If you use shrimp to make it slit the back of the shrimp open and coat it in flour or it'll turn out dry and weird.

Agreed.

Japanese food, hm? An easy one could be onigiri.

I use white rice and stick in some tuna or some sort of filling. It's easy, quick and enjoyable.

Do you live by a health food store? If that's the case you can search for some miso soup/noodles.
Speaking of noodles why not make a meal consisting of that? Ramen is easily obtainable and not to mention cheap!

Why not look here:

Japanese food and Japanese recipes

This is where I learned how to make a few of my dishes. There is also a "Easy Meals" tab.

Japanese foods are very simple to make, though some of the ingredients may not be so easy to find in Norway. The primary seasonings necessary are soy sauce (easy to find), mirin (a sweet cooking sake), sugar (again, easy to find), konbu (thick seaweed), dashi (a soup stock made from dried fish), and miso paste (used to make miso soup, but also important in other dishes).

You can make a Japanese flavor dish using cabbage, onions, thin sliced beef, mushrooms, hard boiled eggs, or other ingredients which you think might go well.

First, you must make the basic stock, which is called dashi. You normally take a handful or so of small dried fish and boil them in water for just a few minutes. As the stock boils, a foam will appear on the top, it is important to scoop this foam off and discard it.

Once the stock is done, you strain it with a fine strainer or filter of some type to end up with a clear broth. To this broth you will and the konbu (dried sea weed), mushrooms, and then the cabbage, onions, beef, etc. The dish you are making is generally known as "nabe", which is cooked and served on the tabletop in Japan.

As the vegetables and meat are cooking, you add some miso paste, soy sauce, mirin, and some sugar. Add these until you get the taste you like. The flavor should be subtly like teriyaki sauce, salty, but with a touch of sweetness to it. Some people remove the konbu before eating, others like it. I have no preference, but konbu adds a flavor to the dish.

You can find any ingredients you need online here: Mitsuwa Marketplace -in the "online shopping" section.
