Audio-Concepts Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 For the posts about the Skylines, Silvias and other J-spec imports bought overseas and tried to bring into the states. Any Japanese imported vehicle is deemed illegal in the states due to the US Automotive Safety regulations. Which is involved in crash testing and other ratings before vehicles can be sold to the public. With Skylines Silvias and other J-spec cars they dont meet the US regulations of safety ratings to which they cannot be sold in the US. But there are a number of specialized importing companies that can bring the cars stateside and convert them to being US legal. (i.e. Motoreg) These companies change out the glass and necessary reinforcement to doors and enhance structural integrity to all vehicles brought overseas. Most of these conversions cost 10k to upwards of 30-40k depending on vehicle. So to answer the questions yes you can have a legal Skyline Silvia or even a J-spec Supra, but to do so and get through US Customs you must have the safety regulation met and the conversions completed or you will never be able to register the vehicle stateside. Also involved in this is the titleing of the vehicle as a US vehicle and not out of Country. So new VIN, titleing and tags are applied. The whole process is a tedious and time consuming endeavor, but if you desperately want the car youll spend the money!

Dwn4BassAlan Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 My brother wanted me to do a little room renovating so I took out his carpet and put some bad ass mahogany floors, painted the walls a royal navy and then he wanted something different for his ceiling. So painted it white (was a canary yellow) taped it off, then did a really nice and light orange to balance out the brown flooring and dark blue walls. I love the way they came out. Couple hours of work too I know this is from a few pages back but I've been gone for a week. Figured I'd give a hint if I could about using tape lines, next time try putting some caulking over the edges of the tape to avoid bleed, which is looks like there is some. Just in case it interests you. Some people don't care but I'm sorta a neat freak when it comes to paint.

Everytime I see a guy driving a mini cooper I cant help but think he loves cock & (2/29/16)-My wife just bitched at me about throwing out things we don't really use. My response of well we don't really use your vagina so should we throw that out was evidently not the right response. I had to leave the room. I missed Alan. RIP 5/29/15 - I love you son.
