from what i read its because they cant pass any safety emission that the has for all their cars to pass but theres prob more to that but i think thats the base of the prob

yea the engine that the r34 gtr vspec's come with i believe the rb26dett engines are also illegal, offroad use only from what i'm aware. theres a lot of red tap around those cars, plus the chassis have to be reinforced upon importation because they don't meet the safety requirements for collisions and all the glass has to be changed as well. better off buying one thats already been imported and cleared.

Sounds like a bunch of bs. I don't see the big deal about it but hey whatever. There's a 95 supra for sale down the road from me they are asking somewhere in the range of 22k for it. It's nice and all modded up. I don't even remember all the stuff listed. If i wasn't paying for my balt i'd be buying it for sure.

I'm leaving for the meet at like 5:15-5:30, if anyone wants to join our small group.

Leaving from Promenade Shops at 5:25 exactly

We'll be parked in the back of LL Bean. Look for my car (below).
