you have my quote with no answer? So are you saying you didnt' know that the 350z/g35 is the same car as the skyline? shucks thats a new one, too bad you can't admit it.

What the hell does a G35/350Z have to do with importing a RHD RX7 into the U.S.? ****, stop posting right now, this has been beaten to death. How about you actually search and look up the endless threads on the topic.

So how do they plan on getting this Skyline into the states?
what skyline are you talking about? whoever said anything about importing a skyline? And yes as of now, motorext can't bring any more r34s in. They were actually under investigation a while ago if they still arn't.

Yea, I didn't know. Where did I say that it wasn't the same car?



Spare me all the time making you look like a clown and admit that you are truly ignorant of all of this. Or you can continue to make yourself look like an ***. It's your decision kid.

stfu, Fumanchu started laughing as well with another member when i said that the 350z/g35 was the r35 skyline, i take it they didn't know.

Hold up.... you honestly believe that it is possible to get a brand new 2004 Skyline into the United States?


**You brought up the new Skyline issue in your one of your previous posts regarding a person coming into your shop and you referred them to a RI.

No airbag in the steering wheel.

I am growing tired of this quickly. I honestly have NEVER seen such ignorance on this forum. Hopefully Dom will come in here soon to destroy you kid.



That quote was in regards to you believing that you can get a 2004 Skyline into the states, which is 100% impossible to do.

It would be easier, but still hard to bring in the car competition use only .. then bring in a 2002..but still Mazda will not write a letter saying it is a race car not a street car. And the bond issue, in the 80's a friend of mine imported a new BMW 323i (predececure of the M3). it cost a fortune, which by the way no bank will put up a loan for. First buy the car, pay to have picked up someone pick it up in Germany, pay for shipping, post a bond with fed's for value of car plus cost of all mods, pay for crash protection, bumper, lighting and emission mods, Total cost in 1985 over $40,000. And at that time you did not need crash testing done if the car wasa for your personel use.

Save the importing for a dream car, a rare Ferrari or something .. at least they may give you a letter that it is a race car.

What are you talking about? That's an (OEM) Efini steering wheel.

Hey get that coc* out of your mouth and realize that all you would have to do is put an rx7 steering wheel with a airbag.
