My ultimate goal is to do a VII conversion. Just do a conversion. Front bumer, hood, rear bumper and wing is all that really matters. Besdies, RHD in America will get old REAL quick. The novelty will wear off really fast. I was on a quest for a LHD Evo 6.5 TME for the longest time, obviously unsucessful. A LHD non-USDM Evo is so much more rare

Everyone cut out the rude and prejudice remarks. This is your last warning.

I've been trying to tell people this for years. I did it for a little over 2yrs and that was 2yrs too long

Importing a car is much more work than it would seem. It will not be worth the headache unless its something rare like a V-spec r34. Theres honestly no point in having a 7. Get jdm VII parts taillights, hood, bumper and call it a day.

From what I've seen and read it is a major hastle to have a vehicle imported. I would love to see more of this done but it gets so costly in the long run.
Please keep us all updated with your plans.
