    Your forgot no sound enforcement on those damn Harleys! They give us **** that said cars are too loud even though said cars put out a few times more power (and are still quieter) then a Harley yet they get nada!

      in MD if your bumper is hiegher then 32" from the ground you were fined......so we all made brackets to lower our bumpers :D

          There's supposed to be a bumper height law in NH.

          Something about the bumper having to be 16" off of the ground. Oops!

            mmmm, thats mighty low. i'll have to find some pics of my buddy's truck. its got a 36" lift on 44 TSL thornbirds. bumper is maybe 5 1/2 feet off the ground. it has a step ladder you pull out to get in it. looks like a monster truck with all the bars and heim joints in the suspension.

                which one?

                i asked importconcern.ca about a black GTX i saw and they gave me a quote of $4500 CAD landed in Vancouver. it was bone stock and in good condition



                a GT-R would be in the $6000 CAD range i imagine

                right now i'm debating if it should get an excellent condition GTX for about $5000, or a not so good GTR for about the same price

                check out their website, importconcern.ca, just ran by 2 guys, Dominic and Christian. lots of people have gone through them and all i've heard is good news. there's also terra2imports.com or.ca i can't remember, but their prices are higher. feedback for importconcern.ca



                or ask around on 780tuners.com (edmonton) or beyond.ca (calgary) for a good importer/broker

                  Thanks Jamaican,

                  I'm seriously thinking of getting a GTX or GTR in decent condition, hopefully by the end of this year but wanted to get more info. That way, no need to do custom AWD conversion on my 323 which will cost me more. A GTR would be fun as the GTX engine needs to go but looks like a decent GTR would run about 7k-8k which is out of my budget for now.

                  If 200 horses is good enough for you, get the GTX. If you want something with more power, either custom build an engine or get a GTR.

                    i'm leaning towards the GTX too, if i do get a GTR it won't be in the condition i would like it, and i don't want to spend anymore money

                    so i think i might get a clean GTX instead, the GTX motor can safely do 250whp too, which should get you into 13 seconds on a 1/4 mile

                    but i heard they might be changing the 15 year old importing rule to 25 years like the US

                    so if i can save up enough by april or may i'll try and get one

                          yeah, I heard it was changing because the original law was there so that people could collect classic cars for their collections not so that people can import cars and jack up the price

                          its because the current rule has been exploited too much for the governments liking
