I didnt think that we could.becasue that you cause problems when you go to switch from the right lane to the left and you dont have a pasanger and you cream someone waiting to turn left in that lane. I think that they have to be converted or they are trailer queens....

yes you can leave it RHD, but Europe is LHD, Great Britian is RHD. Japaj is RHD.
all you have to do is convert the saftey features over to goverment acceptable levels. MotoRex is the best place to go and from what i remember a converted R34 ran about $100k even |

The Skyline I saw belonged to Garage Advance and I didn't meet the driver (looked to be about 20 years old).
 And to reaffirm HndaTch, yes, the RHD aspect is legal (think: mail trucks). The problems are safety and emissions/smog when it comes to legalization. -Ducky

yeah but only 1 company is allowed to do the conversion process to make it legal to drive... so you'll still need to pay them 30k plus to make it legal...
My dad's in overseas freight shipping (he deals mostly with japan)... I could have 30 of them tomorrow... it's just a matter of making them legal... (and having a buyer in japan).... I've got a boner for them and everything but frankly it's a little too overblown at this point... Nissan sucks balls for not bringing them over hear... much less getting rid of the 300z. Oh and no turbo sr20's here eats diock too... I never understood how the jdm boom came from honda... they have like 10 at most more hp then their american counterpart... but the nissans are REDICULOUSLY more powerful over there... imagine a 93 nissan sentra with a sr20det motor... that would be sick. that thing would have put the talon in it's place fwd or not.

Used R33 or R34 is cheapest. Why they not around the street in State?

A lot of people don't even know about them. You mention a Nissan Skyline GTR to most people and they blankly stare at you. But those of us who know would kill for one.
