the only good thing about my country guatemala is that is not ilegal to have skylines and a GTR R32 cost in my country 16,000$ and if you want it left handed the conversion cost 2,000$
they can pass smog with minimal mods. it depends more on the testing conditions than the car itself. the readings are supposed to be taken shortly after the engine is started, they will pass smog if done like that. they do require some structural mods though to pass impact safety reqs.
Though seriously, the standards for cars here in the US suck! In fact, Japan is doing more than the US to help stop global warming. While in America, we come up with ideas but never actually do any of them. Yet we still drive big ass SUV's but it's illegal to have skylines. Oh the irony!!!!! lol
No Skyline can be legalized because there is no Registered Importer to do it - MotoRex WAS the only RI that was able to do it but they went out of business in late 2005. According to NHTSA, the only Skyline eliglble to be imported is the R33 from 1996-1998 or something like that, bu there is no RI to meet all the requirements (DOT, US Customs etc) Any other method not complying with U.S. regulation is considered illegal, including Kit Cars - even if some states allow it, it is not FEDERAL LEGAL.
well not really, a gtr in not so good condition can be had as cheap as 400,000yen or around 5,500CAD at the time i write this. but transporting costs at least 1,000$ for RORO. if you bring a bunch of cars over in a container it's cheaper but risks damage. then there is 14% tax thanks to government, air conditioning fee of 100$, then legalization fees, etc. a 5,000$ car can end up at over 10K. nice cars get more tax. a super clean gtr is worth 15-16k, nismo version is worth more.
@fatoni698 qubec is the best place right now since rhd cars arent able to be put on the road there anymore.. all the cars that were forsale after being shipped here are now waiting to buyers from other provences to come get them... r32 125xxxK mint car i looked at it myself 5500 ... and a GTR for 8500 ... both mint not a single problem..
@driverdriver1 I would say I am about to go there and get 1 for that price but that in canadian money is like 10k american I think I can find a r32 here for that price and save my gas money lol
@fatoni698 Depends what condition car you buy, An Australian version of a R32 GTR was just sold recently for 50k AUD thats the year 2011. Only one owner immaculate condition. Only 100 of the aussie version were built tho.
@SuzkiRm85Kijiji 5 grand, WHY in the hell is it so cheap in canada? An OLD USED GTR with 120k on the speedo will go for about 18k AUD. I good condition one will be between 25-30k.. These cars were valued at 110k back in 1991. a good condition gtr is well worth every penny of 30k in 2011
@btemtd mate ur thinking of a 34 gtr a imported 32gtr with 80k on clock is only 14K and a 33gtr is 17k and a 34gtr is 30-50k, no one is paying 25k for a 32gtr no matter what spec it is. and i am talking about good condition ones.
@fatoni698 Its easy in australia too but an 18k GTR is one that has been thrashed or its an old version, lets say 89 model. For a 94 model clean r32 GTR with low ks your looking at around 25k-30k...... LEts not forget these cars were valued at 110K AUD in 1991
@Leokun7 in 2014 you will be able to import 89 skyline gtr's because they will be over 25 years old and will not be required to meet the emission/safety standards
look up MINE'S Skyline and gather ur info, this is prolly the best skyline with a stock engine period. (u prolly already know this) haha. it beat the formula nippon at 200m. check it. mine's skyline vs. formula nippon. type it in to see the vid
LOL it's 100 grand for a R32 here
