Just a little FYI about the parts car thing:

I know a guy whose JDM RHD S14 has been stuck in customs at the Los Angeles harbor for a week or two now. He is bringing it as a parts car, not for street use. He had to remove all the glass before shipping it, because it's not DOT-approved. Now he's getting hassled about the headlights & taillights not being DOT, they will probably end up getting thrown in the trash; they don't want him to keep them because they're not street-legal.

I'll try and post more info as I receive it.

Why do people have this fascination with "JDM" "RHD" stuff? Unless it's a performance enhancement (which is usually isn't)...

Even senior citizens are into RHD. I spotted this RHD car a month ago...a 60+ yr old man was behind the wheel.
