My Name is DJ

Hello from California USA. I just got mine well not technically because its still on a boat. Hopefully in a few short weeks I will be able to see it for the first time.

I also have a 2016 STI and a 2004 SRT4 Stage 3

Seriously though! If a 1200HP Bugatti Grand vitesse w16 quad turbo can get a California plate and pass smog I know that the RB26 can easily. Sounds to me like It's more political than pollution related obviously. From what I've researched It's been done but the costs to bring a gmv into compliance are upward of 10k, and well 15k is what I was quoted for the skyline then it has bi annual smog to pass regularly so no aftermarket mods either. Thats absurd I just want to go to car shows, visit the track and occasionally cruise it around with other classics. It wont even see 1500 miles a year. We have stupid hippies running things around here though. As soon as it arrives godzilla and I are going on a vacation to a no smog state for a few weeks to visit some family.

12k Is not a bad price. Any pics? GTR?

Damn I only paid $12k for my car lol couldn't imagine having to pay another 10-15k just to drive it on the roads.

Haha u really do need to get out of there. I'm still surprised New York isn't so stricted aboot this stuff

I didn't have anything to do with the import process. Bought it from this dealer.

They are awesome there. They do all the importing and don't put the cars up for sale until they are at their shop in Richmond. Basically it's just like buying a car like normal lol no hassle of doing customs crap and trying to do anything international

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.     
    • Time to decide what’s more import, your power level or your budget because you’re going to struggle to keep both
