True. Tons of shady stuff there. But didn't they actually go through the process of having their converted R33's crash tested?

The cars that were at the shop were seized by the gov. if I remember correctly.

How ever most of the cars that had already been sold got grandfathered in because the Dot/Epa had already deemed them legal.

Wont make a difference, these are the Feds going after the Kaizo cars. People in TX, CA, NV, NM, NC, SC, WA and FL has been hit up. They searched and seized all computers from Kaizo that had a list of all their clients. Needless to say, they have a fucking shopping list of cars to go after.

Like I stated above, they are going by the list they obtained from Kaizo...so if you have a Skyline and you didnt go thru Kaizo, you are kinda safe for now. But it wouldnt take much for them to go thru every states DMV and search up Skylines and JDM vins listed to go after you.

As far as Motorex, all Motorex cars were grandfathered in. Basically if you have your car already and you went thru Motorex and they actually went thru all the process of making it legal...its legal to have in the states.

Kaizo is getting hit up because they imported the cars as Chassis only. Feds are not playing dumb, they know that these cars were brought in, reassembled and driven on the roads with illegal engines. Guess thats what got their panties in a bunch. I bet if you have an R34 and you stuffed an LSx in there, you'd be golden.
