I found this with 1 google search "importing a vehicle for off road use" and it was the first link
Importing a racing vehicle.
If the vehicle was originally manufactured as a racing vehicle, it can be permanently imported into the U.S. under Box 8 on the HS-7 Declaration form that is to be given to Customs at the time of entry. The importer must obtain a letter from the vehicle's original manufacturer confirming that it was originally manufactured as a racing vehicle. A copy of the manufacturer's letter should be attached to the HS-7 Declaration form that is submitted to Customs when entry in made. In this instance, no approval from NHTSA is necessary to import the vehicle.
If the vehicle was not originally manufactured as a racing vehicle, it can only be imported on a temporary basis under Box 7 on the HS-7 Declaration form. A NHTSA permission letter is necessary to import a vehicle on this basis. NHTSA grants permission in annual increments for up to 3 years if duty is not paid on the vehicle, or for up to 5 years if duty is paid. If the vehicle was originally manufactured for on-road use, it would have to be in full race configuration at the time of importation, and lack equipment and features needed for on-road use.
Information on importing vehicles for racing purposes is available on NHTSA's website at

Either that or get a show and display eligible vehicle, which you can drive on the street for 2500/mi/yr. Must be 99 GT-R V spec Midnight Purple II or 02 R34 Skyline GT-R M-Spec Nür.
I have an acquaintance who recently got an R34 GT-R if you're really about that life and need a legit source to get one from. Took a little while to get it but he seems satisfied.
