Default JDM integra type R Importing

hi all so here's my dilemma:
i really want to get a 2005 honda integra type R imported from japan so i can have a right hand drive vehicle. I'm currently driving a 2000 integra GSR and its time to upgrade. does anyone know of an honest company that imports cars from japan to the U.S.? any help would be greatly appreciated.
also, my GSR is up for sale. black on black. ill post pictures when i take them

EDIT: evolution imports went outta business years ago so don't post that link anymore. thanks.
ALSO: anyone who has a type R here in america, let me know! i have cash in hand and i will fly anywhere in the US to come get it

i cant think of any off the top of my head but when you do find one... SPECIFICALLY ASK will the chassis arrive uncut and in one piece. my friend found a smoking deal on an import company and bought 2 R32 skylines, they sent him tons of pictures etc. great deal. got them here. and he had 4 1/2 skylines....
a RSX is easier to import because its a chassis of an actual production vehicle here. so you could technically import it as a replacement chassis thru a bodyshop or car dealer or business.
while a skyline they call BS on it you have to jump thru the promotional vehicle track car shop car options which isnt as straightforward. if you do find a place though it sounds like you have enough money to register a 05 ITR... might want to try getting an EG6 SIR over here first as a test car. and if it works smoothly part it out make some money then try for your car.
if it doesnt at least you have a reasonably priced front cut and alot of bronze glass.
