lol can you get a Altezza front clip though? All you really need are all of the RHD components and have good welding skills and I think it could be done. Cept you kinda run the risk of having your car totaled out due to the fact that your cutting the firewall and rewelding in a new one.

Ya you Canadians have it made 10 years before us Americans. I see some R32s at the local drift events sometimes and theres nothing better than hearing a RB26 bouncing off the rev limiter

they are soon changing that.
canada adopted the same US bumper laws, thus a lot of evo 8s being importer from the states. also i believe they are trying to change the rule to 25 years. which means either all cars that are already imported will be off the road due to not being able to be insured, or the price for them will sky rocket as they wont let any further to be imported.

They are already trying to stop importing cars that arent already registered in the states. I think R32/33's are the only skylines that can be registered. Im not sure about insurance, but I would imagine it would rob your bank. As they know it will be a total loss or a PITA to repair in case of an accident.

You can't register a Skyline unless they were registered before the importing period ended - which was years ago. There are very few Skylines that are actually LEGALLY registered (meaning to registering as 240SXs lol) and typically those owner's won't let them go.

Motorex fked up everything with their shady business practices. There is an article on the whole importing a skyline process and how its almost become nearly impossible to do legally. Link is below, it really sheds some light on how things went down a couple years ago and why Motorex was shut down.

Fk the Yankees. lol I was praying that the Phillys would somehow mount a rally but it never happened. Kinda sad that they spend 208 million per year on players and yet this is their first time winning the World Series in 9 years. The next team's payroll is the NY Mets with 145 mil per year.
