or wait till the car is 14 years old(i think its 14, maybe 15) and have it imported to canada, legaly


It is 15. The reason why you can't import a GT-4 is because it won't pass the crash rating. US has strict standards and Canada has even stricter crash standards. But any car 15 years or older doesn't need to meet the standards in Canada. In other words, there is no way in hell you can legally get a legal GT-4. However, you can illegally get one. VIN swap will probably be the cheapest and easiest.

crash ratings are only if you want to import a bunch of them and sell them, like motorex does with skylines.

if the car is for yourself, you dont need to get crash test ratings for it.

Motorex gets crash tested because the sacrafice a car for the testing. For personal you'd have to get it crash tested. The reason some of those dune buggy things get on the road and **** either because older than whatever the rule is or because they're made from an approved kit.
