Hey guys im new to the rotary community. I just picked up this 92 twin turbo type r just imported from japan. Stock, 79XXXXkms, HKS catback, HKS turbo timer, 17"AVS wheels, kouki tail lights. These photos are from the day i got it. I have since installed an intake and tinted out all the windows.

I know a guy in British Columbia, Canada who does the importing. Its a pretty straight forward process if you have all your papers. I believe its 15 years or older in canada and 25 years in USA. I have pictures, im just new to this and havnt figures it out.

NICE RIDE!!!

I think that registering a RHD car that already has a "name" in the states is easier than one thinks...if you have money anything is possible.....I was told by the RI that to import a R33 GTR would be roughly $10,000 to get it to pass inspection...that is not including the $10,500 to buy the car lol....

Thanks for the comments. Sad to say my rear main oil seal is leaking. I am replacing it ASAP. I have 2 k&n filters going on, controllers for boost & pre spool, installed Innovate Motorsports LC-1 wide-band, LMA-3 datalogger. Power FC at the end of summer hopefully.
