JDM ST205 WRC coming to Texas... Options

[JDM_ST205_WRC]

Hi there guys… n gals??
At present I am in the UK but will be moving to Texas next year.
I WILL be bringing my ST205 WRC over with me under the premise it will be a show/track car (I have been assured & passed paperwork that will allow me to bring the car over but not allowed to drive it on the US roads).
Does anyone have any information on registering the car/preparing the car to be US road legal??
Things I am looking for are emission limits, tweeks to the exterior, side lights etc etc

Can anyone help??

Cheers

IS there Much differnce between UK delivered and JDM cars ?
(Topic for another day perhaps? :-)

> Cheers for the link GMan, will have a read & digest when I get a free second or two

No problem. Non US people bringing over cars has come up before, and Will again.

> As for location I will be moving to Kingwood (Houston), but working in Dallas.

That is a L O N G commute ?
Unless you are in Dallas M-F, and home week ends ?

> Found a great website with all of the Track locations in Texas,

Good info to have.

The main difference between UK spec 4’s & JDM spec 4’s are that the Japs run 101/102 RON fuel as opposed to the 95/97 RON we run over here, the Jap cars are tuned to take advantage of this (Just means when I fill up a couple of bottles of octane booster go in with the fuel).

Then there are little differences like in the UK 205’s they have an oil sensor in the sump, JDM’s do not… the JDM seatbelts are limp as hell (Almost so bad you’d think they don’t work!!)… the JDM models are REALLY well looked after & have hardly seen a days worth of hard driving as opposed to most European models that have been thrashed to within an inch of their lives

Working from home but the office is in Dallas, will only be going to the office 1 or 2 times a month so I am told… we will see tis only 300K’s no more then 2.5 hours tops
