keep in mind FTP also needs to be done on kit cars in California as well, so they treat gray market cars like a kit car in simpler terms. Also FTP is to bring your car up to standards, so they'll add catalytic converters and such to get your car to pass, so expect to pay. You could go to a state referee and talk to them about legally swapping a usdm engine into the car, which will make the process a bit easier.

Couple questions. What port did it leave from in Japan and did you ship via container or RORO? Just curious because you said the cars were coming to Portland and I know I had to ship my car through Tacoma because there was no RORO ship routes from Yokohama to Portland. Just curious.

Also where about are you in Washington? If you're down south should have a RHD meet

I did a container share with GTR Garage so that's why they have to go to Portland. I believe it left from a small port to Kobe to Taiwan and then to Tacoma then on a truck to Portland. And yea we totally should! Im far enough south to meet up!

That makes sense. I know one of the GTR Garage guys, though I didn't get my car through them. Just let me know when you want to meet up, I'm down whenever.

If you happen to be going to PARCfest this weekend I'll be driving my Cefiro. Feel free to come say hi

Hey thanks! I'm going to continue to modify the GTS-t and I probably won't fiddle to much with the GTR.

We aren't aware of any Ro/Ro routes to Washington either. The closest is probably Vancouver, but then you have the mess of landing a car in Canada. Long Beach is the closest US port for Ro/Ro.
