You realize the cars can be imported and then made legal, right?


The thing with Skylines in the US is that Skyline's don't meet US Regulations. So the cars must be modified to meet the regulations.

You don't need to rebuild the car at all or make a kit car.
If you've got the money, you can have it legalized without rebuilding everything.

Wtf are you talking about? MotorRex is not the only place that legalized Skylines.
And skylines can be imported by anyone with enough cash to legalize it.

And if you did have an illegal car, you are not jailed (you can be jailed, they don't though). You can be fined. Mainly it's crush the car, or if caught at the dock, send it back to where it came from. Porsche 959, now that was a hard car to import. There is only one company that imports them, a few others have been brought in with the owners building to full race spec, which only certifies them for track use not road use. Good thing about the guy that imports them is that while making them more emissions friendly, he also ups the horsepower a good bit.

There are probably others, however, MotoRex seems to be the most famous.

Any company that deals with importing cars and modifying them to meet US laws can do it if you pay them.

I've seen them imported by other companies. I can't recall who but I know I've seen it. Don't know the exact details and whatnot. Possibly there is another way to get them legally here, like taking them apart in japan and reassembling here.
------------------------------------------------------------------


KK hope u can make sense out of that Its there user name pose the sig. I am Rb26dett_240sx also one of my posts got edited by the mod there cause i told the dude to pick the phone and call ne of the IR and see what they say "Hello i'm calling bout legalizing a skyline" IR-"HAHAHAHA i'm sry that was rude"

Yes, there are companies that are bring them in, and registering them, but they are not truly legal. Those companies have been by-passing the federal gov't agencies, and if they are caught, the cars will be crushed like you mentioned, and possibly fined on top of that.

Yes, there has only been one company every to go through the DOT, EPA, and National Highway and Safety for the processing of any Skyline, and that was MotoRex.

So, yes you are right, the other guys is completely wrong. Feel free to link or post what I have written. If he thinks he knows more than me on the subject tell him where I can be found.

By the way, loud music is not good for you :D
Ask Ted, he is deaf in one ear, because he always played on one side of his amp.

The inner ear has, for a lack of a better term, fine hairs that will slam into each other and break off, listening to loud noise (higher the freq the worst off), once they break off completely you are then deaf. FYI

You are right.That guy is an idiot. Anyone can import a Skyline but they cant legalize it. A lot of people do this and dont find out until the car arrives in ports. Then they're in trouble. Alot people think that because they have the money to buy the car they can get it. But they dont see the hidden expenses and laws that slap them in the face when it come in ports. If it was that easy there would be hundreds of Skylines along with other JDM cars here. But unfortunately because of U.S. laws and restrictions it cant be done and fortunately for Australia, Europe and the rest of the world that gives them more to play with. They have to love America for that.

And to those people that want a Skyline and think thay can get one easily. Take a hint and see why there arent hundreds of them here already.

Is there ne way to play/listen to music but load LOL
Yah i just quite reading that forum i was screw it let them try and have fun. So when the 25yr law * 2014* rule kicks in here in teh US what will need to be done to the R32s to legalize them?

I hate it when you kids make me do research. I don't even like skylines but since fast and furious, they come in conversations sometimes. Anyways, here you go. Never doubt me again. Thanks.

Dude i was a fan of the skyline WAY b4 2 fast 2 gay my first skylien expiernce was when i saw a R33 blasted around the 13-miles and 172 corners of the Nordschleif circuit in 7 minutes 59 seconds. Setting the new world record for a stock car and the ring. RB motoring could never leglize skylines. they got their cars from mrex. they are however in the process of getting their petition to legalize skylines looked over by NHSTA, USDOT, and EPA. Also u talk bout reasearch do u know who did the crash test for Motorx? J.K. Tecnologies a.k.a. J.K. Motors. I know some of the guys on Automotive Forums have had the oppertunity to talk/visit the owener of Rbmotoring and right now they are like stated in the process of getting approved. All they skylien they sold went through motroex first.

This Guy just wont give up.

Who wrote this? They are very right. Not sure about a circuit called Nordchleif though?

That was me writing to a response in which he called me a skyline fan b/c of the movie and yup the R33 did do it. Supercars.net search for skyline then click on the R33. Also i think the nur. ring site has it on there. Nordchleif is the term for the Full Nurburing. There are 3 vartions i think the F1 track, The Nordchleif, and a 6 mile one i think. To Top it all they just called me a lier so i told them i'd mail RBmotoring and ask them if thy are currently legalizing skylines and post the email.

Speaking of importers. Does anyone have info on any RI's that deal with importing cars from Japan. Not Skylines in Particular, I know the whole deal with them. But other cars from Japan.

If u check the links to the websties listed in the RI thing most of them say what they deal with Itailn,German, Somthing already here, and most are open to discussion.

Theres a company called gspeed that import JDM engines and transmissions. They also have a Skyline sedan, JDM Supra, and RX-7 for sale. How they got them in the U.S. pass customs I dont know. Heres the link. Check it out. http://www.gspeedcorp.com/cgi-bin/home.cgi

Post the link to that site. I'll back you up! Put them in there place.

http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=57728&page=5 there u go the exact thread.

Some Good News

There are alot more registered importers this year for 2005. But the question is what cars are they legalizing? If the Skyline was one of only cars on the eligiblity list that could be imported and legalized and motorex could only do that, why are there so many other RIs? I here of people importing Civic Type Rs, JDM Integras, Soarers, and Fairlady Zs with no problem but who legalizes them?

i just made a post. buhhhh.

i love gtplanet. i go in there to discuss gt drifting :D.

yah its a fairley good nice thred save for the one moron. yah there are alot of importers of skylines but the only legalizer i know of was motorex sill waiting on my emial from rbmotoring to prove the jackass they cant. i know of a site importing legalizing evo 7/8,integra,s13/14/15,pulsar GTiR.

Post a link to this thread. That site has not sent me my confirmation e-mail yet, so I cannot post on there.

Post this link on that site, for that kid.

That guy is not too bright. Don't waste your time on him. I am surew you have better things to do.

I posted a email i got from motorex earlier and i told him i wasn't going to mess with ne more. right now my main objective is getting a job so i can grab a stelath RT/TT that is in my aera. I thinking that could hold me over till 2014. Btw check the post i made in the R34 GTR N-1 thingy. I just realised Igor lives a hour away from me. And thanks for all the help.

Whats the site legalizing Evos, Integras,S13,S14s, and S15s? Can you give us a link? And as for Gspeed corp. They are legit but illegal at some of what they are doing. YesturdayI emailed them and later called them I called them thinking they wouldnt reply to the email. When I called them in asked the guy about their cars and the skyline then pointed out it was not on NHTSAs list and asked how they got it pass customs he knew it was illegal and would not give a straight answer. He sounded nervous and stumbled with words alittle. He lied and had an excuse. He said I dont know, I will have to talk to the boss. He is not hear right now. He knew the car(s) were illegal. Then today I got a reponse to the email saying Thanks for the email. Thats unfortunate news. I think they were being sarcastic. But yet they have a complete Skyline and JDM RX-7 sitting in their savage yard and by NHTSA laws you cant even junk a nonconforming car for savage.

evolutionimports.net the Evos,integera are on the front page. The others are under used cars but if u buy be sure and ask them to legalize it. Like when i asked bout the Pulsar GTiR they said it wasn't legal as it stood but they could legalize for not much more.

Thanks for the link. I saw some cars on there that werent on the eligibility list. Im going to ask them about a MarkII/Chaser? If they can do that they got my bussiness.

Isn't the chaser the japanese equalivent to a lexus we have here? I can't find that one where is it? Notice they have skylines but like i said they dont' claim to legalize nething but what is on the first page so like u said ask them bout it. They are a very nice company it they can import it for u they will. You will proabably get a response within a day or 2 if u have a junk mail filter make sure to check the junky folder.

No. There is no Toyota/Lexus over here equavilent to the Chaser. From 1992 in on there isnt. At one time we did get Mark IIs here.They were the cressidas (markIIs in Japan). But in 92 they went there seperate ways. A new redesigned MarkII was released in Japan in 92. The Cressida coontinued production one more year hear in was discontinued in 93. It sucks the new MarkII/Chaser did not make it to the U.S. A 92 Toyota MarkII Tourer V is what I want. I always wanted one of those. If you are talking 91 and back then yes there is a U.S. equalivent. 92 and newer then no.

And oh yeah. I havent asked them about the MarkIIs and Chasers yet but I sent an email asking about their legalization cost. And while looking through some of their pics I saw some Chasers (96 and up) in the background. I think that may answer my question, but Im still asking them to be sure.

evolutionimports has already been proved to be a scam site.

BTW - tougedrifter = me.

That is new to me a few guy at a evo forum bought there evo 7s from them. They can do LHD conversion if needed. But i've never herd of nebody calling them a scam.

U seem to know alot bout this import scene thanks for helping. It says the 90-91 MR2 is algable but how i can i find out who is importing/legalizing them?

i dont know exactly how to import the sw20's. but there are different requirements for each car, some cars you can just pick up at the dock with a letter from the manufacturer stating that the car will perform the same in crash tests as the LHD counterpart in america. your best bet to find out how to get certain cars into the united states is to call the USDOT or NHSTA and talk to a representative that can give you all the information you want.


ps. insurance would be a pain.


oh and p.p.s. we have the US equivilent of the Toyota Altezza, which is the Lexus IS300.

So are they legit or bull shit?

bullshit. did you even read the link i provided?

Yes I did but Dreamspawn claims there are people that had no problem with them.

well those people are bsin. come on nitrous, youve seen all the people that come into the US section saying they bought skylines through so and so, and how its perfectly legal and everything.

I don't know nebody that has got skyline through them but evo 7s and integras yes.

Ask them for a physical address and see what they tell you.

EDIT: Nevermind they do.
Dont know if they had one before but they may have added it later.(its not on the site, the Better Bussiness Bureau may have obtained it.) Thats where I found it.

322 East Central Blvd
Unit 1713
Orlando, FL 32808

and

309 Rachelle Ave.
Suite 634,
Sanford, FL 32771

The have maps to both of these addresses including the PO BOX.

They may import cars and sale them but that doesnt make them legal. People bring in drugs and people do drugs everyday but it isnt legal.

They dont even have any info or claims to legalizing the cars or cost on doing it.

On a side note: I wish the Skyline wasnt the only JDM car that could be legitly legalized and imported. I wish there were other legalizers for other cars that were legit.
