you are correct about engine swaps, luckily we live in GA where the average cop doesnt know the difference.

Just like my RHD silvias i owned, the average cop didnt know it was from Japanland.

But try ANY of that in California and your car is seized/crushed/refed to oblivion.

Just because we can get away with it here doesnt mean its legal, same goes for Skylines or any RHD car.

Chances are, if it is RHD, it is ILLEGAL because the car doesnt have any Federal safety paperwork allowing the car to be on the road. DOes that mean your average cop is gonna pull you over? no. Does it mean if the RIGHT cop pulls you over you can lose the car, YES.
