Do you have a website to check it out thanks

I think he lives in Japan.

Japan. Over here a Skyline is considered a normal car so insurance is cheap.

o0o .. Anybody here in the US have insurance on there skyline if yea what company and how much ?

I need some info???? im gonna make this car street legal and everything and the last thing is to get a insurance quote to be 100% street legal with no problems..

hhmm you know you just cant go to your insurance company and expect them to cover it, They dont even have the car in their systemYOu have to buy a policy from them and tell them how big you want the policy. Keep in mind if you pay lets say, 10k for your skyline, i would insure it for a 20k car. The car aint cheap if you wreck it.

R34 GTR Vspec.. state farm

Sky-kit.com 1-941-276-1082 give them a call.? I'm thinking about selling my S14 and everything I have for it to buy a R32 GTS-T and can't afford getting ripped off! I've emailed these guys and they replied back. They also deal with Capital One Auto Finance to finance a Skyline or S15.?? I don't know how legit it is.??

I also emailed sky-kit about getting a R34 and they emailed me back with about 10-15 R34's that met the category that I indicated on there inquiry form. I saw they have that capital one finance link on there site but, I'm still a little unsure of how legit they maybe. I found a guy on another forum that said he got his car from them, it comes as "parts", and he was in the process of putting it together. I asked him for pics and he said he would get them to me when he got the chance. I don't want to say he is lying but, I would like some solid proof so that I will know for sure.

BTW, does anyone with a skyline recommend any insurance companies besides State Farm and Progressive?

Them are the only two that I've seen.

With Sky-kit you can have them re-assemble your car or they will do it. If they do it, it's alittle more but less hassle.

I heard that it may not be able to come to the us as a car, but as parts its ok. I think its because its less hassle goin through customs.I might have them reassemble it though, so it can be complete.But I'd like to put mine back together. (could cleanit up and learn alot about the car) plus it'd give me something to do.

Well, if you go through them, please keep us informed because I am sure that I'm not the only one in the market for a skyline. I haven't heard any bad things about someone working with them. I just have my doubts They sent me an excel spreadsheet that came in the email with all the picks they sent of the R34 that fit the criteria of what I want. It had the prices and everything. So I am hoping that they are legit.

If you have it as parts then you will never be able to register it as road use vehical. Any one who is telling you that you can reassemble it here in the US is lying to you or they don't know what they are talking about. I have a close friend down in Japan and says he could get me a GTS R32 for $2000-3000 fixed-up and Shipping would be $3000 but only as non-rgisterable car, if it were that easy I would have already done it. Not only that but US customs says any car that does not pay import car tax is illegal here so it will never be able to be registered. If your paying for parts tax instead of whole car tax don't even bother.

Not to say that your lying but, there are a few people in the US now with skylines that get them as "parts" and reassemble them and register them as "kit cars". Once they are registered as a "kit car", depending on the state they live in, they can drive them all night and day if they so choose. Read what this guy did with his FD. Importing Story It's worth the reading if you haven't already read it.

(Sorry for being off topic). I am still curious if anyone (most likely military) has used USAA to insure they're skyline?

Well there are already FDs here in the US I don't see it being so difficult as doing a skyline. As one person said "insurence co's dont' have them on the computer" policies are tailored for this car. Anyways, I don't think its difficult to bring a skyline to the US I think the hard part is registering it to use as a road car, as I said earlier it if's illegally here they they will never let you register it. In the post that you reffered me to the person that broght in the FD didn't finish with the registration yet only importation. Maybe as a kit car it is possible to be truthfull I have not look at this senerio, but I doubt this will work since it not really a kit car and the manufacture will not back it up as a kit car.

FDs are easier though, we already got UDSM ones.

you guys quarrel waayyy too much about this. and by the way kim. my friend. yes someone i know first hand not a third party story. has a a white r33 gtst and an r33 gtr in florida that sent the cars over as parts and registered them as kit cars. because in florida you can practically register anything. and the companies in business here get you florida titles. and after that its as simple as transferring the title to your state. as far as the insurance goes. you may take out a premium for the value of your "grey market" car and then chose the amount you want to insure it up to. its not 100 percent legal but if you want something bad enough like some do. we arent littlle worry wart whiners who sweat the small details. so before you bash and criticize do your homework and find out all the facts. thanks

Do you by any chance know what the total fees he paid were? I live in Washington state, and it appears that I can register a kit car no questions asked here so long as it was previously registered in another state. Otherwise I have to get SAE certed bumper, DOT certed glass and MPH conversion.

EDIT

That is so long as a VIN is created for the car. A VINless kit car still has to go through the other registration in Washington, as far as I can tell.
