I searched the site for a while and didn't find a topic about it so... if I was interested in importing a GT-4 to the United States as opposed to simply swapping a 3sgte engine into a GT or ST what would I need to do (besides obviously buy the car and bring it here). I am aware of the cost to bring something like that overseas however I have a few questions.
#1 Would the car be street legal? -With the car being right hand drive and probably from the UK would it be road legal? #2 If not what would I need to do to make it road legal? -Simple as emissions checks or complete conversion to LHD? Obviously the money isn't there right now, however just a thought for the future... |

theres defentially a way to do it...theres a guy that lives not to far from me who has an imported RHD GT-4...i am supposed to go down and talk to him so when i do i'll ask him how he went about doing it....i would just find someone up in canada that i can trust...hand them 12k and tell them to buy a gt-4 and then transfer everything over to me and drive it down...that seems to be the easiest way. Say you live in canada and you own a GT-4, you now want to move into the states and bring your car with you...im sure you can, and im sure you can register it here as well. theres ways of doing it, its just a matter of who you know.
