you in canada? i cant do shit for the us. we will be trying it out with a cheap car we can easily resell around here to make sure we dont get fucked and if all is good we gonna start importing 25+ y/o rhd and 15+ y/o lhd cars


380 000 jap yens = 4144.28 cad
my buddy checked for the shipping but i think that only includes the boat cuz chances are the boat goes from jap to bc then it will be by train and on north american built cars you save some taxes ( ex: vette :) )


Close. Michigan lol

An R34 is still $25000-$35000 before any fees, and you can't register one in the US for another 10 years.

Brought in, in pieces, as a kit car.
VIN changed and registered as a 300zx or a 240sx

It isn't hard, but if you get caught, you're fucked.

Completely possible that it was taken apart in J land, put back together state side and registered as a kit car.

Not sure how it works in different states, but years ago the ministry of transportation in Ontario actually approved some revins. So when that car's vin was run after it was assigned a new vin, it was seen as LHD, even by insurance companies.

It's a lot of paperwork and waiting in general. I got the ownership papers from MOT (DMV) 4-5 months after I handed in all my papers for the 180sx.

Get's even more complicated when you try to import cars that aren't allowed to come into the country yet.



The replacement VIN I was talking about.
