?possible or not?

 

Everything is possible if you have the right amount of money

 

Its possible but those who have done it will never tell.

 

it is not just having the money to register it, but it is also who you know. You might have the money but if you don't have the source your still out of luck.

 

Research will only help. Use the search button on this site.

 

ive seen it done plenty of times over and over. its all about who you know

 

best bet is to take it a company that imports cars and pay them to do it for you

Hit the nail right on the head. Try N1 Concepts...

 

I'm pretty sure N1 wont do it for you.

 

ollllddddd *** post but i'll add the info i have gained via searching and pestering george @ gspeed for info(thanks george!!!). this post is copied from another thread.

to DIY you'll need paper work that should come with the car from japan(de-reg and title....) probably a bill a sale you'll need reg forms REG 343(application for title or reg) and REG 256(statement of facts). On the reg256 form you fill in section C, title only and section G i.e. i (name) purchased this shell as parts from (blank) and have receipts for everything. reg 343 is filled by you and the dmv/chp.

Smog is the only grey area i have found but what i do know is you'll need a smog certificate, or try to reg as a diesel and be smog exempt (i've heard of it being done but don't know how). chp will need to inspect the car and it also needs a brake and light inspection. ummmmmm thats what i can think of off the top of my head

 

good addition M_Shake

 

no prob mang, i've personally never done it but thats what i know. though i do want to try it some day.....

 

I don't even live in Cali, but it's a good guide to go by no matter what state you live in to try it. Figure if you can do it in Cali you can do it half as easily somewhere else haha

The inspection procedure is so lax in my area of Texas. They pretty much check your registration, insurance, headlights, turn signals, brake lights, and wipers. Everybody gets a sticker for 11$

I bet it would be easy here, registration is the grey area.

 

same thing i was thinking, you should go here or to oregon on a 2 day trip and do the registration before you attempt cali. i have seen a few RHD ITR's in my area

i remember looking into this before and the total cost for an average ITR in japan plus shipping was $7000. you then have to get it off the docks and do the paperwork. this is where i stopped since, from what i could tell, there is a chance your car will get cut in half if you don't use a registered importer; which of course jacks the price up to around 10k

you then look around and notice that R33's aren't much more
