Default UK or JAPAN Type Rs

Well I was wondering if I would be able to buy a Japan or UK Civic or Integera and ship it to the US .(I dont have the money to do this . But if I did I would.) Anyways if I did I would problably switch everything over to a similar civic or integera because of these damn cali laws and the steering wheel is on the other side . Dont say JDM JDM nah son I am a righty and more than 90 percent of the population is(no offense to leftys). Well I would like your oppinions . Thanks . And sorry if I wasted your time.

Well when you do come up with enough money to buy it AND ship it here, im pretty sure that you're gonna have a hard time liscensing (sp?) it and if you live in CA, it will also be hard to pass smog. There are a lot of other things which only complicate things more and makes building your own "JDM *****" the better option, both financially and legally.

us spec smog equipment, us spec tempered glass, us spec bumper reinforcements, and lots of paper work to do it the right way.

or..u buy some wrecked totalled salvagable usdm equivalent, take the vin tags off, put it on the jdm vehicle.lol

or u just be hessian and drive that bitch and say **** tha police like nwa. haha

jdm cars r pretty damn cheap if u buy from a place like bestjapancar.com im not sure on the shipping but especially hondas, the ones we jock so much arent worth a damn thing before they get here and some shop rapes people on a markup.

to fix the right/left side thing of the steering wheel, you can pick the ITR/CTR in countries like Germany, France........Italy, Spain or Portugal..........

concerning the customs and registration thing I have no clue...........yet
I am working on it! Believe me, I still want to drive my 96 Escort Cosworth here......

Doesn't it take about 6 months to pass customs and DOT certification?
