Just have to be patient. Good things come to those who wait, my friend.

And speaking of e-mails, I have a couple from Jeremy that I need to address here soon.

Jeremy, if you read this, I haven't been ingoring you, just been uber busy the last few days as work starts to wind down towards the end of the school term.

They don't have a functioning and approved OBD II system. They never had one. When I was at Motorex, JK told Motorex they were working on one then.

Instead, they never actually got a working system approved.

Is it possible to do a system, yes. Do I think JK is capable ? No they are not.

As far as JK being the only one that did crash testing, that is true. However, JK has never actually got a bond release on a Nissan Skyline. They never cleared a single car. I cleared nearly every single car at Motorex.

All of the crash test information is available. All the normal and the confidential information. It was supposed to be confidential for 10 years, but the OVSC released it a little early.

If you are in California, they will never be able to bring a car into Compliance for you. There is only one company in the US that has brought a car into compliance for California, and thats G & K. They did the compliance and testing on every Motorex California car.

thank you for your wise advice but cant it be possible that they do find a working OBDII system?Also what is the main purpose of G&K ? Is it to put the car in compliance with the DOT and EPA? Do you happen to have any prices for the skyline?

I'm sure it's possible they have some sort of approved deal going on or else they wouldn't be doing it. I highly doubt they would risk their business and reputation to pull some Motorex stuff.

You have to develop it and adapt it to the GT-R.

There is no RB26 OBD II ECU . Its not like taking a part and installing it. Its a complete emissions monitoring system, that needs to be tested and approved by the EPA. It was rough for the OEM's in 1994 to implement the system, so it was pushed back to full implementation in 1996.

Some of the basics that OBD II has, that the RB does not is misfire detection, backside 02 sensors. The RB has no EGR. No purge rate monitoring. The RB has no air pump, and honestly it needs it to try and meet emissions requirements.

So how many times have Drift Tuners/JK actually done FTP testing on GT-R's ? Just FTP.

Who "Drift Tuners?" Some no nothing kids from Canada that have a website ?

The same kids- that the last time I called out online, shut up and disappeared for a while, and found a new playground where I wasn't. Somewhere I wasn't exposing their lies, one after the other.

Its 10 years later now. 10 years after I started answering and dealing with these things.

Now there is a small contingent of people that know a bit about the laws. People I have met and talked to , explained things to over the years. They help out.

People need to understand that we are trying to educate them, to get them to ask the right questions. If you buy something illegal, know it, know how to deal with it. If you buy a state car, know it, know what it means. If you buy a federal car, know what that means.

Well guys are you sick of dealing with people like Sean Morris?? and this importing issue?? Read below what i wrote, this is what was posted on another forum. Also we recently filed a lawsuit against Sean Morris, he has failed to prove who we have scamed...

Read below

Sean, I know you’ve been having a rough time, even this past summer. Let’s talk about this for a moment. The EPA process is not that hard, the EPA is around for emissions so when you install/have installed an EPA approved motor then emissions is no longer an issue. Also you got a call from a guy recently that has an R33 that was done stamped DOT with a valid vin and a title and I guess he didn’t like the way you treated him on the phone. As for J.K. we are still good with them however we just got a new setup in the U.S. where we now are getting the DOT office to come by and inspect our cars and when they pass we get the DOT paperwork. 2 weeks and around $5,000 depending on the car and work needed.

Also you should calm down just a bit because we are going to post the documents from J.K. of the recent DOT, EPA R33 on NICO Club through Greg the owner. Once you see the documents and call everyone you know in the Government to try and prove us wrong you’re going to realize that it's the real deal. Why don’t you help promote the good guys instead of always trying to bring people down? Just because you don’t know how we run doesn’t make us a scam, been online for 3 years now and own 6 other JDM websites so if we were scamming we would have been like the other scammers and would have been long gone by now.

Sean, your Government states that these cars can be imported, simple as that, if there is consistencies in your Government then that's not the people’s fault or problem it's the lack of communication between departments. I mean there are even a lot of guys importing as parts then installing EPA approved motors and doing the DOT work, brake lines, glass, fluids, seatbelts, tires, etc... having someone from your Government come over and approving it as being DOT compliant then giving a title.

So where is that the fault of the buyer or the seller?? It’s simply the fault of the Government and hey if the Government in certain States are approving this then the Federal Government are the ones that need to go after their own in the State Government. So Sean it's simple, you waist a lot of time yelling and being loud but the fact is you shouldn’t be yelling at a guy who is just trying to make an honest living and making people happy at the same time "Living the American Dream" you should set a mission if valid, to target the ones who allow the cars in the U.S. in the first place, and that's your Government. Think about it how else are the cars coming in, we don't work at the border the Federal Government dose. I guess it just shows how secure the borders really are, I guess?? Or is it because it’s not really a big deal to the Government in the end anyways.

And to all of you reading this I have no problem giving references to people on our customers, I can’t post them here because that would violate their privacy but I do have permission from a few customers that I can hand out there phone number and email

I wish I had all the links to the good things people are saying but here is one from a customer’s friendhttp://www.supraforums.com/for...15753

Also Sean not one person has ever said that we have scammed them and if they do it’s because of your influence because I know all our customers. And yes we are very busy and sometimes it’s hard to get a hold of us so please leave a message and we will return it. A lot of the time people call at the same time we are on the phone and we don’t put customers on hold that we are currently talking too ,to answer the other line because we like to serve each customer on a first come first serve bases.

If an idiot calls me, I treat them like an idiot. I have no time to waste on people. I think I know the guy. Somone in Florida or somewhere in the south east. Had a car with mods, traded it on a Vette. JDM Importers or something. Someone can listen and understand what I am telling them, or they can not call me. Don't call me unless you want the truth. If you want false information,and lies, just call you.

The DOT doesn't do this. You are thinking DOT in the "state" way. Not the federal department of transportation.

Many states call their local DMV a DOT. Arizona for instance. Then these ignorant kids, like yourself think the Arizona DOT is the federal DOT.

You can't even get close to DOT and EPA certification for $5k. Who is doing your FTP testing. Mod and test ? JK. They never did a single GT-R. Every GT-R FTP'd in the US was done by G & K in SoCal. Just a single FTP test will set you back $2500. Cats, evap cannister,ecu and you start to get up there in costs.

Whos making your airbags ? Door bars ? Seat reinforcement ? Whos altering your speedos ? Headlights ? Taillights ? Side markers ? Should I go on ?

Don't believe everything JK tells you. I asked you about that confidential information. Information they were under contract from Motorex for. Information that they aren't allowed to legally use. If you aren't using JK anymore, but claim to be able to do the same thing for $5k, vice $26k from JK, how does that happen ?

No they dont. Where on the list of non-conforming vehicles is a Silvia ? Or a RHD Supra ? Any of those cars ? . http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/imp ... 050108.pdf

You are telling people they can import these cars as "race cars". You are so ignorant, I am surprised you can figure out how to keep from walking into solid objects.

See you have never actually done this. Just showing your ignorance here. Most vehicles manufactured in the 1990's all had mostly DOT compliant items. Brake fluids , Glass , Brake lines. Glass is always the funny one. Its marked right on the Windshield - DOT - AS1. Every single GT-R has DOT glass from Nissan. Every Single One. Someone that doesn't know this, just a joke. Kid, you are a joke.

You aren't making an honest living. You are selling someone something, they can not have legally. Thats not honest. You are lieing to people, and you are so clueless you don't even seem to realize it.

With all of the money that Drift Tuners is spending on lawsuits against Kaizo and Sean you think they could pay for some legal consultation about how to go about actually legalizing cars. I'm glad that I've been following this drama for the past week. Hilarious.

We just called JK Tech to talk to them. Ask about DOT , EPA, OBD II . We asked them if they knew Drift Tuners " no,a lot of people throw our name around" was the response.

We asked them if it was 26k to legalize a Skyline and they said" no the process is not 26k". JK quoted us $36k to legalize a car.

When we asked them if they had a Certificate of Conformance for the OBD II system they said "it has nothing to do with DOT".

It may not have anything to do with the DOT, but it has everything to do with EPA compliance and bringing a car into full federal compliance.

You can contact them yourselves to check up on the story. Were we talking to the wrong person ? Lois ? She is listed as the owner of the company.If there is a deal between Drift Tuners and them, I would imagine that she would know.

JK [email protected]

People should call and email them. Ask them about Drift Tuners.

I'm 99% certain there's no attorney, there's no lawsuits, and there's no legal consultation.

This appears to be the same old song and dance we've been through in the past. Same game, different players.

No, I was commenting on J.K. Tech. They are a very reputable business and it doesn't seem likely that they would risk passing non-compliant vehicles through to customers. If they quote $36k for the process, which seems to be a concistant amount that was also posted on our forums by some of our members who've talked to them, I'd say it's safe to "assume" they have all the checks in the boxes needed.

I have had direct dealings with JK. When I was at Motorex, they were the ones that worked out the process, did the crash testing.

They had good connections, and knew ways to do things. They were good at it. Close to the OVSC in DC.

We just called them, and they were fairly evasive on their answers. We asked them real questions, hard questions. Ones people don't want to answer sometimes.
