Re: R33 Skyline for sale or trade in phoenix
The feds here can be iffy about those cars being in the US unless its 25 or older. Have heard a few horror stories about cars being seized and what not... A guy not too far away from me had a few of his cars seized by posting it for sale all over the net... (It was the yellow F&F R33 GTR) Not sure what happen to the car in the end. Was supposed to be crushed last summer but I never followed up on the story really... But I know people that have owned a few GTRs in the states for years without problems. Depends on how savvy you are I suppose... Just seems like all the people that post up ads like this usually get f*ed.

No not my car just a rare car I found on the CL. I think you could register it in Northern Az n drive it on the street leagally in Az I'd trade my Ty for it but I want a Skyline too and My truck isn't in as good of shape as that car.

The bad part of owning those imported right hand drive cars is parts are a real pain in the ass. The kid up the street from me has one and he was ordereing parts from a middleman in Vanacover B.C. Took 3 weeks to get some of the parts for it. I drove it onc, damn is it hard to shift with your left hand after shifting with your right all the time.

15k is ok^^
you pay here in germany 17-20k for a gtr in a very good shape! the biggest problem here are parts and lights(for lhd traffic) but why buying a car like that? buy a 71 or 71 skyline its legal to import in the isa and its most rare!
a friend of me have a mitsubishi evo 5 rhd i found its not really bad to drive that! the first 2 hours was hard for me when i turned i pushed many times the windshield wiper ^^ hahahahahaha
or its funny when you drive into the drive in at any fastfood restaurant^^ or you drive in a car park for getting a ticket^^ my friend have one of these for the tickets

Old GTRs go for their weight in gold in the US. $$$$ Old evos are cool as hell too, and yes the RHD is tricky to get used to for sure!!!
No, its a GTS. Still turbo (RB25 instead of RB26), but has a lot less features than the GTR. And just RWD...

Not 100% legally. There are loop holes in some states to get them registered, but they are still illegal from the federal point of view (similar to legal weed in Co and Wa).

Yeah... The Feds aren't fond of "grey market" vehicles. I know a few years ago, there was a guy bringing them in without engines, and then putting engines in them at a later date.
