OO and just by random occurance another thing just jumped out at me on EBAY that we should also all be proud of that is FOR SALE and someone on these forums should buyyyyy it!!!!! There is an authentic Nissan Silvia S13 coupe black from japan imported to canada with around 27,000 miles on it sporting the OG original gangsta engine the you guessed it CA18DET!!!!!!!! It's black and seriously if someone has the cash on here buy it!!!! The guy says it was supposedly never dragged drifted abused, and even if it was 67,000 km is NOTHING!!!!! It is also a K's.... Take a look ya'll especially those of you in FLORIDA. (and then find out for me how he got it registered here with no problems lmao!!!)

people use scrapped S13's vins to register them..... kind of a real bad idea if ever caught.

either that or it is a kit car.

I think it's a legit S13 from Japan, and Gabby might be right, but it looks like what he did was actually all legal. The car does have a Vin issued by BC and that is real. So Basically what he did because I ended up asking him lol was at the boarder you do pay around $1,000 and they issue the new paper work to get it titled in the US so the BC vin remains the same because it is a legit vin, but you have all the necessary documents to take to any dmv here in america that states the vehicle is in compliance with all the smog/safety equipment. What he did was perfectly legal I guess lol... as far as I've been told. Though I do have to agree because one of the girls I know just moved here from Canada, and she brought her RHD Accord down with no problems and got Colorado plates. It's an 02, and she said the same thing. At the boarder in Canada you get stopped and they do all this crap to make sure everything is good. And pay your dues she said she only ended up having to pay around $800, they give you the paper work, and she's rocking colorado plates with a Canuk vin lol. So idk.... either way not a bad deal, or if I had the money I'd do it

I bought my s13 at 14 000km right away from japan... 100% stock and yes ca18det and yes ABS. Right now a 45 000km after 2 year's. Most of you already know that we can get those from japan in here (canada)

This s13 is from japan but not legal on the road ( in the us) Remember Motorex ? The drag s13 you just shown is a track only car.

In Canada,Legal Importation from other country for car is with 15year old and up ... us is 25 year and up.Right now we can import January 1994 car. YES you have to take the fabrication month is

So there is no way a 2002 rhd Accord from japan can touch the land here.

But, there is some exception... some are cheating ( not legal) a little bit and this is why we have some r34 and s15 over here ...

Ask me is you have some question.

Btw ... that's the JUN Hyper Lemon CA18 if i'm not wrong.

Cool, we are talking about the Silvia on EBay, not the Asano btw:) And of course that's a drag car only. But the S13 on ebay is road legal, and pure awesomeness. Yes Motorex sucked balls kinda, and yes most of the time you have to be a registered importer to get these cars into the US. But if you are Canadian and you want to take your similar car that you have there that is comparable to a US car here it is do-able. Idk I'm sure there are some exceptions in Canada because I know of a few cars from Canada here that are rhd registered and legal here. I know a guy with a 97 civic type r no conversion that had his when he lived in canada and moved down here and brought it with him, and it still have the canadian issued vin. Drives it all around Denver and has never had any issues. I think you are right though there are always loopholes etc. And some if not most could potentially bring in cars illegally. Skylines don't wor because they don't have a us counterpart. But the silvia's civics, accords, cefiro's, and a ton of others have similar american counterparts so I guess it's all good...
