wow, we didnt know the skyline was comming to the US.

motorex will NOT drop the prices, why the hell do people think this. and what do you mean places like motorex? that is the only place.

to quote myself from nissanforums.com

they legalize the cars on a car by car basis, and since they dont get that much business from legalizing skylines (i believe the last skyline they sold was months ago) they cant mass produce/get wholesale for what they need. you gotta remember that legalizing skylines ISNT motorex's main source of income, its a side project of theirs to make alittle extra money. you ALSO gotta remember that legalizing skylines ISNT the easiest of work, these things take time. right on their website, they say it can take up to 8 months. also - recently the DOT has frozen ALL skylines comming into the united states, and the skylines currently under legalization.

if anything you can expect the pricing to go up as the demand increases for the cars, especially since alot of em are getting sent to the crusher, and are getting totalled and what not.

well I am sorry if I am not as informed as you are. still doesnt excuse you from being an ass.

[nismo_power]

but it also doesnt excuse you for not looking around alittle. if you wouldve looked, we have numerous threads on this same topic. AS WELL AS THE ONE THAT YOU POSTED THIS IN.

Now i am not a big fan of nismo power myself. but um he's/ she (i have no idea) right here. If you start complaining about stuff you were not right about than you are a dumb ass. the way you get the info is the way you get it. at least then you know...

any how nismo_power i looked into it a little more and to tell you the truth i really did not know how MANY there were that actually used the turbos- although it still does make too much sence for drag racing to me. one does not need a whole lot of power after the cars is already moving. I mean think about this does it not take between 10 and 20 horsies to keep a car down the hiway?

[nismo_power]

you dont need a whole lot of power once the car gets moving, but you want to keep your car in the prime rpm ranges, meaning you want the majority of your power right where your going to stay at the whole race. granted, superchargers are great for getting off the line but when you use a supercharger you sacrifice high end power.

I agree... I see no reason why MotoRex would drop their prices due to the fact that's 'not all they do'. Also think about it... the R32-R34 and the whole RB series of engines has reached CULT status... it's a classic... if anything the price will go up!

Well check out skylines downunder

There is a new thread under the USA section - motorex may be closing- ask sean about that. He thinks that hiro is going to jump out and liquidate all of his work and skip out to japan.

Sean is always right about this kind of stuff. HE is almost done with getting aproal from the DOT NHTSA- and the EPA. So....anyhow motorex is getting sued for not getting out the cars to the customers on time and whatnot- people are dishing out cash and not getting there cars and are getting pissed off at them for this...so motorex as said by sean may not continue to exist.

So this may not even be an issue in the near future.

[1viadrft]

He can always sell his 'patent' work and break even for awhile....

[nismo_power]

that whole hiro leaving is crap. its just a rumor.

and sean is not always right about this stuff, HE is not almost done with anything, i have no clue what your talking about. and he doesnt have any affiliation what so ever with motorex anymore, so how would he know personal motorex business?

[blight]

um he is the one with rbmotoring they use motorex right now and he has been trying to be considered a fully legal ri for legalizing these things.

[nismo_power]

dude....ive been talking about rb and sean for the past month to you.

he isnt with RB motoring at all, hes just trying to get their petition to go through. they dont use motorex in a sense, they buy the cars from motorex and then sell them themselves.

[blight]

oh so that's what he meant- I must have missunderstood him...sorry that makes more sence.
