15 year law being lifted in Canada?nitrous36 01-17-2005, 10:14 PM It has been mentioned a few times before. But know clear confirmation on this. Does anyone know anything about it? Any new info. uranium235powered 01-17-2005, 11:34 PM Nope, I haven't heard a thing. I hope they don't change it, I want a R32 GT-R and I don't want a punk down the street to have a R33 or R34 that's cooler than my car. ZedEx 01-19-2005, 03:33 PM I wish America would at least drop it to 15 years... 25 years is a bit extensive if you ask me. And the people to ask about this, would be THESE (http://www.jns-imports.com/company/index.html) people... They could probably tell you best. -Wes nitrous36 01-19-2005, 06:23 PM Yeah I wish America would drop the law t o15 years too. That almost makes me want to move to Canada. Maybe there will be a change with in the next 5 to 6 years. Doudt it. In two more years I would be able to get the 92 Toyota Mark II Tourer V I wanted. If I lived in Canada. But unfortunately I have to wait 12 more years here in the U.S. ZedEx 02-02-2005, 09:05 PM Im just waiting patiently... The problem is going to be finding a Skyline in nice enough condition, for a price you can afford. For a car, 25 years old, is old. And it will be somewhat more difficult to find parts and such... But oh well, Im looking forward to it :D -Wes redline_shift 02-07-2005, 09:54 PM i have a general question, is the skyline an ILLEGAL car in the states, i live in miami, and when me and my boys ride, we have 2 skylines rollin with us umong other cars and it seems the law makes no notice to us, not untill midnight atleast.. 9EightSS 02-13-2005, 08:08 PM Yeah i feel for you guys in the states, unless you have alot of cash for the proper mods for DOT approval you gotta wait till 2014 to be able to bypass that and thats for a R32. JNS is good but I beleive the best importer for Canada is these guys - www.importconcern.ca - thats where I got mine :naughty: And to get back on topic the 15 year old rule is not being lifted, just wishful thinking on the part of a R34 lover I think. nismo_power 03-12-2005, 04:21 AM i have a general question, is the skyline an ILLEGAL car in the states, i live in miami, and when me and my boys ride, we have 2 skylines rollin with us umong other cars and it seems the law makes no notice to us, not untill midnight atleast.. quit bsin, you dont have "2 skylines rolllin with us". Escort_Service 06-03-2005, 02:49 PM you can get any car in north america that you want. Its just a matter of bringing it up to spec. I have built a kit car from the U.K. and it had to be approved for street use.(its a copy of the super seven) All I needed was some bumpers and different tail lights. Its the same for the skyline. There is a place in Ottawa that imports them! Since the laws reguarding speed are different the car needs to be de-tuned, if you will. Other then that the car is legal. Oh and one last thing I hope you have about 10k per year for insurance too. R.s.D 11-13-2005, 02:53 PM whats this 15 year law? Monkay 01-28-2006, 08:29 AM There is a place in Ottawa that imports them! I've heard of that? any idea if they got a website??? I been looking for them for over a year!! Thanks in advance!

In the scrap yard you ugly piece of #$?@ You do have a point there, but you spelled 'piece' wrong, any who, can anyone please tell me what is this 15 or 25 year rule? Does it mean that the Skyline has to wait 15 or 25 years to come to the US or what? Escort_Service 01-30-2006, 09:36 AM Yeah in order to get the Skyline or pritty much any other car imported you have to wait 15 years, in Canada. I think its because it takes our car that long to catch up in performance. When I was talking earlier in this fourm I was not talking about street use. You can import any car you want but you have to pay and pay and pay. My old college roomate came here from England and brought his cossie with him. He probally could have bought and evo 8 with the money he spent. liny 01-30-2006, 10:38 AM Yeah in order to get the Skyline or pritty much any other car imported you have to wait 15 years, in Canada.

He will drive that car till it dies and when it dies its getting turned into a rally car. Automotive Network, Inc., Copyright ©2012
