it would be easiest ot import it to canada and sneak it across the border. it would be alot cheaper to, motorex can do it, whether they will or not is the ?, they sell their 45k skylines for 80k with just a damn more restrictive exhaust to pass emmisions in cali. ps, i dont know if they have tests in boston, but florida doesnt. im not anti-environment or anything, but down here in florida we can run straight pipes, or straight headers. i believe that there is atleast one new fd in the states under the title of 95. good luck on bringing that puppy over. where there is a will, there is a way!

Do a search. This topic has been discuss several times, although I don't think you will like what you read. This is a very expensive process if possible

motorex charges 80k because they have to crash test 3 per year. the new rx7 is going for 4,000,000 over there. So figure it will cost double that to bring it here in freight, taxes, and regulatory issues. If you wanna be shrewd, what my neighbor used to do is disassemble the cars and bring them into the US as parts. The taxes and restrictions are much more lax apparently.
