Targets in Japan = Tokyo + anywhere there was a US base or concentration of forces.

Plus refineries.

I can see refineries for oil producing nations but...Japan doesnt have its own oil reserves does it?

Looks like around 8 refineries depending on the data you use...

Both versions are pretty clear that refineries get hammered across the globe, even where there is no production.

France has almost no domestic production and even thought they are a nuclear power the Sovs still decided to hit them.

True.

A few places that might be potential targets...just suggestions...there's no canon list that I'm aware of, so it's pretty much up to each individual GM how they want to play it.

Mitsubishi Aerospace, Nagoya and Komaki (Manufactures licence built F15's and F2's (Japanese F16 variant))

Various shipbuilding facilities e.g. Nagasaki, Kobe (Japan was a major shipbuilder in the late 80's, building tankers, warships, container ships, etc)

Space Launch Facilities (I just had a quick skim of those but they all seem to have been operational in the late 90's)

All merchant shipping is very vulnerable to pirates today, Japanese ships might have a few clubs. A commerce raider or raiders would be very disruptive. N. Korea might lob something that would disrupt 3C.
