        Yeah...S15 is waaaay too new to import, but I thought you meant if I could import ANYTHING other than a Skyline. If you'd do enough work and find some loop holes, you just might be able to register it. All that work for an S15 is well worth it !

          Supra, definitely! it's like the combination of a GTR and RX7.

              Sorry to be off topic a bit, but what have you found that makes your GTR a money pit? It doesn't seem overly modified for high HP.
              I don't own one yet, all this talk of constant troubles is worrying me!!
              Is it the DOT compliance, the gas costs...?

                agreed. I LOVE FD's...but, im not a rotary fan at all...
                Thank You Hinson
                Its pairs a great car, with a great engine, and 350hp to start with. Simple mods will take it over 400hp... reliably 8)

                And... an RHD FD, this kit, the motor, and w/e mods to make it as sexy as the one it the pic will come in under the 20k range!
                Do it...
                Just one step on my way to Eleventy Billion horsepower.

                  because i thought i did a lot of research and was confident i was getting a deal but was lied to about the quality of my car before it left japan. it shower up needing some work. clutch, injectors, tires, adjustable upper control arms in the front and rear, radio didnt work, speakers were toast, broken dash vents.... the list goes on. but now that ive fixed every problem (as soon as my new tires arrive it will be complete) i have a good car, but funds have run low.

                  and as for the V-8 rx-7... hell no!!! if i get a rx-7 it is staying a rotary. if i swap anything in im stayin with an import motor. CHEVROLET FTL!

                    Plain and simple: There's a LOT of **** to go wrong on these cars. Coil-on-plug ignition, electronic controlled 4-wheel steering, electronic controlled AWD, individual throttle bodies, two ceramic turbos, tons of vaccum lines and piping, etc. On top of that, the stock engines aren't horribly reliable and have a tendency to pop if they're not taken care of.

                      Right, I get it. Its good now, right?
                      But it isn't holding your interest anymore? What in particular is fading?
                      or is it just time 4 a change?

                          well its almost done. but every time i drive it, i still get hard.

                          but a few reasons. i have always wanted one. i got one. played with i for a while and now want something else. ive always liked rx-7's and now that ive been checking them out a bit more, i want to own one.
                          and finaly, the best reason. ive found a source for used cars in japan at japanese prices. vehicles in japan are much cheaper. but they know that they can sell the same car to a canadian for double or triple the price. so we get shafted.

                                For me, 1994+ Toyota Celica GT4 RC edition. In fact, I will look for one next year when they become legal for import.
