I did some checking as I wanted to get a SiR CRX a while back - no can do as engine differences alone will not be considered as sufficient reason to issue the compliance plates to brokers. If you can find a CT in Japan (good luck  ), then it may be possible.
Private imports are as bad - the car must have been owned for somewhere between 3-5 years overseas before it can be imported.
I truly wish it could be different - and those people who know the history of my car know why. I would love to have the compliance plate on the SiR - but I doubt it will ever happen

Isn't It you have to live in whereever you want to import your car from around 3 months?
