Last time I checked, there was no restriction on how many miles someone can drive a registered US car daily driver.

my whole argument is... a guy named A brings a car to the states. cant afford to comply it to DOT and EPA, and hence puts it on EBAY to sell to someone else to register it instead... and that is completely legal.

Nobody but an RI can sell an imported car from another country.

There is no RI THAT CAN MODIFY JDM S CHASSIS. IS IT THAT HARD? The SR is illegal PERIOD. If one part of the car is illegal the entire car is, no RI can modify it without the proper testing (what Motorex did). The entire sentence I just quoted you saying is TOTAL MUMBO JUMBO. No one can import a car and just go "oops" I can't afford to make it legal, then resells it. BOOM ILLEGAL. That is the contract you are making with the government by filling out that paperwork. You import a car yourself you can never resell it PERIOD.

This is the argument. READ IT WELL. Night can't legally import a car in the first place. Nothing else is in question because I am right, so stop trying to save face you are making yourself look really dumb.

No my car is not registered as a kit car (do you even know how to register a kit car? You will see why I can't do that if you knew how). No my car is not a daily driver. My car is off-road/race legal only. There is no mileage limitations on me racing my car :rolleyes I trailer it, race it, trailer it home.

Do I have to quote myself for you to understand?

Oh and here's MY sticky in the Skylines forum with the Official links. Your link is through the Treasury dept with a 404 error? That's funny...

It is illegal to sell a non-compliant vehcile in the U.S. If you have imported, bought or been given a noncompliant vehicle, it must either be converted by a registered importer or exported. If you purchase a vehicle imported into the U.S. by someone else, and that vehicle turns out to be noncompliant, Customs can seize the car. Buyers should always make sure that a car is legally registered in the U.S. before they purchase it to avoid this situation.

BAMMM from customs FAQSOOOOOO since he isnt an RI and there are no Ri's for Z32 or silvia, he is illegally selling the car. end of story

Hell this says you cant even bring an S series chassis into the US. Under 49 U.S.C. § 30141(a)(1)(A) (formerly section 108(c)(3)(A)(i)(I) of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act (the Act)), a motor vehicle that was not originally manufactured to conform to all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards shall be refused admission into the United States unless NHTSA has decided that the motor vehicle is substantially similar to a motor vehicle originally manufactured for importation into and sale in the United States, certified under 49 U.S.C. § 30115 (formerly section 114 of the Act)

Oh, BTW "Only an RI may import vehicles for resale. If you would like to bring vehicles into the U.S. for resale, you must become an RI."That good enough for you?

UNLESS:

Cars that are more than 25 years old are exempt from EPA and DOT requirements. In 2003, model year 1978 and older cars are exempt.

So I guess you can wait until 2021 or so to get that s13

Ummm, retard, the argument has always been about S series chassis, Swift and I both know that the rules change from car to car based on this list...http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/....html
