Kel best bet id say is buy a Gts or Gtr shell from canada and bring it over here as a kit car. Register and title it as a custom kit car not a nissan skyline. That way you can rock the car here with minimal issues.

Theres one or two r33 shells for sale on nico. Buy a shell then 2k for a Rb25det or around 3k for a r33 gtr engine and your good.

the Si and the rx8 are just about dead even till top end rx8 wins.
my ex has one there fun to drive compared to other years,k20 for the WIN.
my other friend also has one but her's is a normal 08 civic and its slow as hell.
co worker has a 08 mugen sedan edition which is not bad looking.
but the rx8 lacks bangkok power

what about insurance or inspection
i know there has to be a loop hole in the sytem.
say a spend 6k on a shell another 3 on motor
and since I wont drive it every day like my summer cars anway
you think I can get away with it or would the cops bust ***** and take it from me.
as we stand I can get anywhere from 13-15.5 for my s2k.

The places where i always see people having problems is Cali. The cops know about cars out there....
Here In NY the only thing that thell find fishy is the RHD.... Ive seen a guy with a r32, uninsured, un registered, and with plates from his other car. And cops walked up to him and complimented him on what a beautiful mechine it was.... you can ask omar, he was there

They dont know what there lookin at... For petes sakes, look at this parking receipt i got a while back... LOL
You tell me if they know what a skyline is

Bro, forgot jumping a fd with a power fc and especially with a mini battery is a big risk. Supposedly the jump can fry the pfc and common to fry the battery. search it up on 7club. U should be in the clear but just double check.

Man handle it. That's what I did. Push really hard from the front and then pull the back up while pushing the box up.
