I did do a search and didn't see anything in the topic. anyway, Im curious, How to make a car street legal from Japan? I know that Emissions is the biggest thing hindering it from being street legal.
so what I'd like to know, and I'm sure there are others as well, is: 1. Is it legal to drive a RHD car on public roads in the US? 2. what Emission work needs to be done, and whats the possible cost on it. 3. what else would need to be done to make it legal? Thanks for your input guys, Soul |

I know that so far Nissan Skyline and Nissan Silvia are the only two japanese domestic vehicles that are already pre-approved for import on the FEDERAL level. (A few people in our local car club have them.) Other vehicles youve seen are sometimes on a state to state basis. One of the big hindrences of importation other than emmisions is crash test data.
