did they share with you HOW they legalized the car without crash testing and such like motorex had to do? when i asked the only answer i got was i had to buy one to find out :rolleyes:

yeah that's what i thought... which means there's no chance in hell i'd buy a car without knowing if what they are doing is actually legal or some loophole crap that's going to get the car impounded and the owner fined ;)

MIKE.P
01-25-2006, 10:40 PM
naa i dont have to worry about that shit...i know mike really well and i talked to the person that is doing it...mike has sold a couple of cars and ppl have never had a problem with it, getting insurance, hey get a title like any other car, and so on and so forth...its very legit....i will have a title just like anyother car so if i sell it the buyer will have title in hand and they would ake it up to the dmv and get it in their name just as simple as that

all this info is from sedahttp://www.southeastdrift.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2575&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=40
We do not legalize cars. We have a separate company that will for $3000 . If you want me to tell you who it is or how they do it, BUY A CAR from me. It is 100% legal and you will get a title. Knowledge is power and anyone who knows me or my reputation knows Im a very honest buisness man. Is it possible that the people who say its illegal or it cant be done just dont know all the facts? Is it possible that I just know alittle more? These cars are inspected and given titles as the cars they are. The title will say Nissan Skyline on it so you know it was not titled as a Kit car or a 240sx.

. Yes MotorEx is gone, but since they crash tested the r32, and r33..no R34's.. the info is on the books for whoever to utilize.

top-notch info, i had wondered why motorex was shut down and now i see why. they tried to cheat the system.( the info was to big for me to copy and paste just rea he whole thread and youll get very usefull info)

Motorex isnt shut down. They can still help people get stuff just on a smaller scale.

The thing is though an r32 gts-t cost like 700 bucks in japan. lol

The motors are a thousand bucks max selling with a profit. Imagine what the car is worth.

the skinny of it is they crash tested only the R32's and a couple of R33 models, but they were importing all R32-R34 models into the US under the guise the were the earlier models that they had tested. so basically they were shut down for fraud.

R32's are my favorite by far. Although, depending on hoy much $ you already have in it, I'd lose the RB20 for the RB26 w/ Rb25 tranny and have a nice little RWD beast.

Can you tell us what you paid?

I've always wondered why people are so cryptic with Skyline and Skyline legalization info. Maybe because they don't want anyone else to get them and blow their relative rarity.

i think it's more the companies importing them not wanting anyone else to get in on the game... although MOST of the current importers of these cars are cutting corners and not legalizing the cars by the letter of the law. the only company that has done so was motorex, who did all the work to get the R33 legal and onto the NHTSA list of approved vehicles (crash tests and EPA testing) but got greedy and slipped by the R32 and R34 without telling the govt they were different cars. hence the reason why i'm so weary of people legalizing R32's and R34's because they are not approved by the govt for legalization and i'm sure nobody is going to the trouble that motorex originally did (at least they were on the right track).

sounds fishy. I'd like to see this title you got. Motorex used to charge a shitload over the price of the car for a legal skyline with a U.S replacement vin but these guys are doing it for just 3,000 dollars. I don't care if some dude says hes an honest businessman but if he can't reveal how they are truely legalizing the car something is up with that.

That is around 500lbs heavier than an s13...

And a gtr is awd so its nothing like it. I don't care how much you paid, paying for an rb20 car is paying too much. Regardless of its cool "skyline" name.

Too much.

That car is like 500 dollars in Japan. People buy the cars and cut them in half and sell just the motor/tranny for 1000 making profit. Then they throw the rest of the car away.

There are plenty of laughers not haters. I'm not hating on you cause you bought sub 200 ft lbs of torque of RB20 goodness. That;s your prerogative. The name skyline is intimidating because of gtr's. Otherwise you have an S13 that weighs more that you paid more for.
