92 Japanse RX-7

[PapoSwing]

I have been looking at a 92 Japanese Rx-7. Do the Rx-7s they sold in Japan comply with US Standards? If not what company can legalize one for me? Any other info on importing an RX-7 to the US would help me out a lot.

there were no 92's... not in america atleast, I don't think there were any in japan either though, they just kept selling the 91's till the 93's came out early

You guys didn't answer my question though. I don't care about the year or whatever, I simply want to know what is the process of legalizing ANY Rx-7 from Japan? What company is capable of legalizing ANY RX-7 for the US? And how much it would cost me?

First of all, I'm not a guy. Second, if we don't know which model is it, how can we help you with it?

[PapoSwing]

Let's Just say it's a 93 Japanese RX-7, OK. Does that give you ANY more info into you knowing what company does these conversions, or how much it costs?

Why not..just... buy one here? it'll be cheaper and easier.

Oh i know.

You want JDM y0! If its JDM it MUST be better than USDM

Dude, i'll tell you right now, the only real difference is that the steering wheel is on the other side of the car, and the convertibles were turbocharged.

What the fuck does that have to do with anything?

[PapoSwing]

SO by telling me that the only difference between a Japanese Spec Rx7 and a US model is the steering wheel placement, than I don't have to convert it into US standards? Right, I didn't think so. The only thing I want to know is what company can convert me a Jap RX7 to US Standards. I yeah I could get one here, but I want the one over there!

Just so that we are clear on this, if you could buy a carrot that was 1/2 lb for only $1, or you could spend $1 on a JDM carrot weighing in at 1/2 lb that you had to spend $2 converting to US std. You'd still buy the JDM carrot?

Are those three ridiculous little letters that important, and if the answer is yes, please explain. The only concievable reasons I can come up with for 'needing' something that is the same but costs more follow. Please feel free to add to my list as I'm sure you have a great reason for needing a JDM carrot.

1. Mental defeciency, failed basic math.
2. Mad tyte JDM yo!
3. You ran out of your meds and havent gotten your new perscription yet because it takes a month to ship JDM pills.
4. Your compensating for something *cough*smlpns*cough*

There is no company that converts them.

Exactly. Steering wheel placement, and a couple emissions things are missing.

That.
Is.
It.

yea you just have to find a company that ships them and usually they can fill you in on what needs to be done... the cat. conv. probably need to be switched to US spec ones to pass emmissions(maybe) but really theres not a whole lot to be done...

but honestly, I'd encourage you to just buy from here... shipping alone is gonna cost you crazy dollars

[flex339]

sometimes people sell JDM rx-7s on ebaymotors so you could check there.

[PapoSwing]

Does anyone know of any companies? Or how I could begin to look them up?
