If I'm not mistaken you currently own a 1990 GT-R (24 years old, and technically when next year rolls around you still can't "legally" title it)? Also a past owner of an r33? But you're the one to talk down about owning "illegal" cars right?

you Should do more reading. Steve's 90 GTR is a NISMO, which is a limited production car and imported legally under the show and display exception. This S15 doesn't qualify for this as it isn't a limited production car (standard is 500 or less production models).

Steve's R33 was taken by ICE as it was imported illegally 3 (maybe it was 4) owners before him. He exported that car because it was brought in illegal here (same deal here with this S15). There was a several articles on the subject and when he speaks to the pain and frustration of dealing with an illegal act done by a previous owner it doesn't get much more real for him. You can find the stories of his car all over the interwebs with a little reading and it isn't anything he has shied away from since the day I have known him.

Clearly you aren't qualified to even comment on the subject, as state titled isn't fed legal, EPA legal, or anything else steve has been talking about. He is continuing to talk about these things even though it has been covered to death why? because of people like yourself that don't know what is/isn't legal. Why waste his time? because he wants everyone to be aware what the risks are because it wasn't offered to him when he got his R33.

PS just curious, do you know what an HS7 is? would you know what it looked like if it was offered to you when you purchased a DR30? This isn't anything your average 240sx will ever have, as it isn't needed as it was legally imported by Nissan. The DR30.... not so much. It gets even more exciting when you have a JDM FD3s, and compare it to a USDM FD3s, but I will just stop here.
