canman: I'm looking into that.. fortunatly we have some MP's from Guam on island
and one of them works for the DMV in Guam. My friend said that all I have to do to register my car in Guam is to have DOT glass and MPH speedo... Now I have to find out about getting it from Guam to the states.I'm stil working on it.. have some more phone calls to make.

dont give up!!
Get the car shipped over here as a parts car. take fenders, seats, lights etc. off. ship separately. You should have no problem getting it past customs. Look on the nhtsa website and call the RI in costa mesa, CAlifornia. Black Rhine motors i think. Talk to cornell. He might be able to help you get it here. Dont waste his time. Be direct with you questions and dont sound like a dumb ***. You are able to do it. dont give up.

I have friends... but most don't want to take care of my car because they dont want to be resposible for it.corkbone: I'd love to bring it back as a parts car. I'm looking into it. It's just that I'm running out of time.

Dammit... this thread is ancient!
He moved to the US without the car.
Got out of the military.
Moved back to Okinawa
Bought Igy's FD and started de-Igyrigging it.

Bret is trying his best to do so! All of the tie-ties have been replaced with metal fasteners and bolts, a stereo has been installed and Bret is adding aero parts from Chris's old yeller FD.

He owns a 3 rotor FC now. It's in the body shop getting repainted right now. He removed the PP motor and installed a SP with 3 ITB's. This car is really sweet. It's actually kinda famous in Japan.

If yes, I have it on DVD. Awesome sound. Tsuchiya said the car was a "Dorifto Machinda".
