hey,
these are pix from last year .. i will post new ones soon .. car does not have WRC wing anymore as it was sold on accident (not by me!!!) .. getting another one next spring .. have a real TRD wing going on when i fix front and paint ..

motor is dusty but i powrewashed and man i could not even find a oil spot on motor .. lady in japan really took care of car ..

only mod is a 3" fujitsubo exhuast .. nice smaller tip 4" tip ..

i paid less then 5k for car and except for damage the car is unreal how clean it is.

MORE NEWER PIX TO COME..


OK .. on importing .. car was imported as goods (listed as a parts car and bill of sale and invoice both say car was made for non road use) .. really the only way ..i have heard some horror stories about guys buying canadian market cars and trying to cross image a Jap car .. if you wonder how i am going to title well i am not sure yet .. going to look into options .. indiana has some vague laws i need to really study but just like customs there is ways to make system work for you.. i am not giving out what i do unless you own a GT4 in the states.. i can't help you past customs if you ship over but if you make it past them i will help you ..what is point of giving out info if you can't even get off the boat .. my car was listed as parts from japan and never had a issue with canadian customs..

does it run, how bad is the damage?

Congrats on the car. That is a nice catch.

why should he post it on a messageboard? besides, all state laws for title and registration differ, what he does in Indiana may not be legal or capable in other states.

Why shouldn't he? A lot of people want this information, even if state laws differ, it gives u an idea

what about actually shipping the car over in parts?

was searching around and was curious about this post - was there ever an update about the gt4 into the states?

I know the guy that sold it. He has it in the states now. It has been there for a while

there is 2 st205s in Oh .. we will be meeting up at some point as other guy lives 90 miles away

i am not going to answer any how to questions .. the hardest part of getting st205 is getting here .
