What are some good places to find lots of academic, peer-reviewed papers on Japanese linguistics? I have access to JSTOR if that helps.

Look on JSTOR then Journals are sadly almost never available online freely, so make use of it while you have access. You should check out your university's library website for any other private academic databases you might have access to (JapanKnowledge, GENII, etc)

You can browse by discipline and find the few Japanese related journals pretty easily on JSTOR.

You might also try CiNii: http://ci.nii.ac.jp/ if you are up to using papers in Japanese. Some of the articles are available online, but you'd have to do interlibrary loan for a lot of them.

CINII is a part of GENII.

A page full of lovely articles on voicing in Japanese.

This topic made me search Elin@Lund (database of articles for University of Lund) for Japanese and I found a really interesting one about how Japanese grammar shouldn't rely on western concepts like subjects and tenses.

So, awesome topic

PS. If anyone wants to search for the article, it's called
Toward a critical dialogue across languages and cultures:
On native and Western linguistics in modern Japan.
Of course, one has to be a student in Lund to search Elin but I suppose it's available elsewhere.
