Why strip it if he can bring a 1993 Zenki S14 K on the military's dime? You'd be stupid to strip it if you don't have to do any work other than completing paperwork, deregistration with LTO, drop it off at the port and wait for it to get stateside.
Coming from somebody who stripped his 500whp S14 in Oki, I wish I could have just shipped it whole so I didn't have to pay the stupid drift tax on a chassis stateside. I shipped almost 4500 lbs worth of car parts with my HHG.
Only thing shitty about it is the Japanese caught on the whole 25 yr old importation gig. Prices of 25 yr old cars in Japan has gone up significantly due to demand for R/S/A Nissan chassis and the Toyotas are starting to do the same thing too.
But back to the OP, you do realize that you can get better cars that will be 25 yrs old by the time you come back in 2018/2019 right? Think FD, MKIV Supras, Soarer, Chasers, etc...
