dur did you forget about the RHD civic. yes not completely legit but still "on the wrong side"..... i never had any problems with cops for the year that i drove it around here nd in fergus and also before i owned it a few of te previous owners got pulled over in it and was nothing but a laugh...one of the time;s i was driving it the cop asked how it made it over on a boat in good condition... then said it looked like hondas rust in japan too... then i told him it was converted, and gave him my reg. and insurance and said he didnt know if it was legal in ND or not so he told me to bring it home

Well that's nice, but it still doesn't matter. Im pretty sure If you drove around a RHD car that isn't registered/insured/let alone legal one of two things will happen: **A) A cop will see you driving on the 'wrong side' and weather or not you are doing something illegal or not...will pull you over. Thus you'll get 100% completely fucked in the ass (huge fees/car crushed) **or B) You do something illegal (speeding, roll through a stop sign) and get pull over, or even worse, get into an accident...and...you guessed it; get fucked.Not to be a 'hater' or anything but I wouldn't EVER drive it around, even if it is to wash it and show it off. It's probably the dumbest thing ever.
Anything that happens after getting pulled over for no good reason is thrown out in court...so even if they found it to be illegal, they have to look the other way. Same thing works for DUI/Drugs, etc etc etc. If the stop wasn't handled correctly, the cop is SOL.

HOT SECKS!!! Besides its North Dakota who's really going to care about it not technically being legal to drive here. Most cops aren't even going to know what it is let alone that its not federalized. Oh and just to reiterate P you fail

Looks good Max, but you should have bought a BMW if it is going to be a track car, no one else makes anything remotely close, especially no fart can Jap Crap.

I have a whole gtr front end coming on the next container along with a aftermarket intake manifold, injectors, and fmic kit(not sure if I'll use a fmic or vmount) I already have custom turbo manifold and dp just need a sc61 and engine management and ill be set for over 500hp which I don't want so ill tune for around 400hp and as high torque I can get.

Why does the legality of any of this matter to anyone besides Max? If he drives this for 2 years, with no problems, I can't wait to see the bandwagon. He is testing the waters for EVERYONE (that would be interested in a Skyline). If he fails, he loses a grip of money and we all know it wont work. Within the scene, we all modify our cars to basically come to the standards of Japan.
Examples:
-
How many people have modified their crash beam to fit a bigger intercooler/bumper?
-
How many have removed their cats on their cars?
-
How many people have non-DOT seats?
-
How many have cars lowered/raised out of DOT standards?
-
How many of our cars meet EPA requirements?
Point being we all operate cars that we have modified from DOT standards, to sub-par. I'm sure the first person in the area to run an open downpipe was scared, but after no issues, we all have.
Max has a unique situation. If he gets into an accident, he is screwing the other driver over, as well as himself. He will have to pay out of pocket for repairs to both vehicles. If Max gets pulled over and the cop happens to know a thing or 2 about JDM cars (there are a few that I know in town that will see that car, and know it isn't legit), he is going to have to export the car back to Canada (something he has already said wouldn't be tough to do). If what he is doing is 'stupid', then let him make the mistake....But again, I bet this isn't the last Skyline to get imported in the area if he DOESN'T get caught.
His 'stupidity' is testing waters for all of us.

Well explained sir. The only thing I would like to make clear to others is that MY insurance company will insure it under liability only which means it is LEGALLY insured. So if an acident does happen I am still ok. I do not plan on making this the most know car by fpd. I plan on taking it to the track, a show n shine or 2, maybe one meet and the local car show. If I get in trouble its my ass not yours. The only thing I can see coming from this thread on this site is people like delslow that doesn't really care for me personally and would see me driving it and call me in. I have the ability to export the car any second I want and it would still be mine. Also if they do find it "illegal" then they send me a letter saying I have 60 days to export they won't just take it and crush it. I don't care if you don't approve of my situation, I bought this car for me and to see what would happen when I try to register it.

I'm more concerned with you screwing shit up for ALL rhd cars, by going balls deep into scetchy waters. I know i will not be happy if i get harrassed in my legal rhd converted car because you just had to drive that illegal skyline on the street.
You knwo as well as everyone else it's one of the most illegal cars to "import" and really there is no way to know how this shit will end. All i say is don't push the cops buttons on this.
