I've been thinking about this for a while, I really want to import a GT-4 to the U.S. I just want to know the cost for shipping and how hard it would be to get parts for the car. Can Anyone help me out?

if you want an import skyline just get one off ebay that has been legalized. as for a gt-4 it may be harder. and if you put a GT-4 engine(4wd) into a gt or st(fwd) your car wont be safe as anything above 200hp in a front wheel drive vehicle isn't safe. but if you willing to get yer car converted to all wheel drive then go for it.

have you ever hit the gas in a FWD car around a corner. If its icey its very hard to steer. Sometimes I race people on this curvey road in town cause it's funner that dragging. (SOMETIMES NOT ALL) And when I slam on the gas the car just peels out and goes straight. And even when I drag I have the revs up high when we start and they car is kinda hard to control sometimes especially when they're is some sand on the road.

Importing a GT-4 in the states has been deiscussed before and tried by me. All I can say is that
it is next to imposible to do legally. mad.gif

the reson y it would be hard to import a gt4 is that u need crash testing so u can show it would be safe to bring over here. i just herd that from a few people.
