Unless you have performed the mod yourself, then no, you cannot.

(I don't even know if you can if the mod has been performed)

yeah, you have to pay for the legal fees and ****. go through the DOT and EPA. its not fun or cheap and it takes months if not years.

im RHD converting my FD this winter, a ton of work but itll be worth it in the end.

When I said this, I meant "unless you have performed this on a LHD car". I wasn't sure if he was talking about importing.

you have to get it titled as a kit car. then register it as a collectors or kit car. this will cost around 2,000.00 to 3,000.00. depending and you will only be allowed a max of 3,000 miles a year.

Dude, there are tons of FD's for sale, legally.

If you're gonna go through the trouble of legalizing a RHD car, do it with a car thats worth it, like a skyline or something.

But an FD? Theres like 50 on ebay right now. Get the shopping.
