Such is life I am learning day by day
I wonder if you can buy one off someone who street legalized one in Canada...
I know a guy with two older skylines that he imported and safetied here.. might be alot easier to import Canada to USA than it would be Japan to USA

Seriously
How so
FrestyleFC3S' car was a Canadian car that he bought up here and drove back to NJ, he didn't have a problem
I'm just saying perhaps theres a loophole you could take advantage of
if it's easier for us to do the "legwork" of making it legal, then you can buy it from us and pow

Thats for Canada though, those rules don't apply on US soil. For instance Minis can be imported to Canada that are 15 years old, but HAVE to be 25 years old to be brought in the states. Even if the car is in Canada, still can't be brought over the line. Wish they made it easier.

ive seen 2 skylines and 1 evoV or VI by my house. teh guy with the evo said he bought it off some guy that imported it for racing, rally i believe, its registered as a 240 and insured as a eclipse, or something like that. last i spoke to him he was having a hard time tracking down dome break pads or rotors....
