buying a jdm car. can i do something to get it registered.
I want to know if there is some sort of way to do this legaly. Not swapping vins or anything like that. Is there a cut off date or anything, just some input from californians that i see driving those jdm cars.

if you plan on commiting a crime don't tell everyone on a public bulletin board that you plan to do so. there is no spot for a vin number on a jdm dashboard so chances are a cop wouldnt even notice it. if they did notice it, you would probably get your car taken away.

There's companies that'll make it so it can pass cali smog and everything'll be peachy. Last time I checked for a skyline it was upwards of 45 grand AFTER import costs and it arrives in the US and all...doubt it's much different.
Also, search, there's a thread somewhere around here that tells u about a loophole in cali's laws which allow you to register it in a different state or some **** like that (think it's a company that registers in a different state for you).
Do a search, it's floating around here somewhere.
