My JDM FD has arived in Cali :)
 

It has been over a year since I was daily driving my FD in Japan. I'm super excited to finally have her here for good... :lol:

What a pain in the ass it must be to drive a RHD car in the US.

Congrats!

Looks good.™

Nice!

Did you import it under the 25-year exemption?

Oh man that's awesome, I'm jealous! And glad there's just one more of them in the states now :)

RHD on Westcoast
 

Welcome to the brotherhood.


Any issues for emissions in California?

What's up man! Stationed in the UK and looking to bring back my RX7 to Cali as well. Did you have any issues with emissions or registering the car at DMV?

Picture attached for attention.

so far it hasn't been at all ... just driving to work today on the highway it didn't even seem different... even in town. I daily drove it for 3 years in japan. it is funny seeing people break their necks as I go by lol :)

yes I did. she is 25 years and 3 months old this month. it was pretty easy. i'll register it in Oregon DMV was cool about it when I spoke with them on the phone. insurance was easy too progressive wasn't too much.

nice FD , i wanted to do the same when i was stationed in S Korea but i end buying one in WA after the korea assignment.

What's up man! Just following up to see if you were able to get your FD registered in Cali?

I still have my FD but undecided if I want to go through the hassle of bring it back...

bling... sorry i never even tried Cali.

How did you work that out? You must have had an Oregon address to use. Please enlighten me!

Welllllll. Im from Oregon. Im only stationed here in cali so it was quite easy. Oregon is my home of record. So i dont really have to mess with any of the cali bs

You might be surprised how easily you get used to it....I have zero issues here in Canada. I find the RHD stigma peculiar.

I imagine if you frequent parking lots and drive through's it would be a chore, and insurance can be a pain. But otherwise in my opinion LHD, RHD wheel in the centre.....no big deal.....!
