The Japanese were not as far behind in jet technology as most people think. Their planes were also better, as were, until the Americans killed them all, their pilots. Draw in the air, by and large.

Naval-wise, the Japanese win every time.

On land, the Germans win. Tanks, simply put.

The Germans will win, probably. Won't be easy, but they will. Take out Japan on land. leave them with islands, and then need to nuke Japan itself to win.
