How much $ to legalize JDM S13? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

even if they share the same excact chassis, the manufacturer (nissan,toyata,etc) still has to make a formal statement saying that the chassis will react the same in a crash as it's us counterpart. Which no JDM auto maker has ever done so far. Without the manufactuer's statement you have to crash multiple cars, and spend a great deal of money to make it possible for anyone to legalize them. Which is what was done with the 2-door 32-34 skylines.

Just keep in mind, just because you see people driving around true jdm cars, doesn't mean that they're legal. And with a front clip it's pretty easy to make an unsafe rhd jdm wanna be, car, so you can tell people it's jdm tyte.
