The only other way I know of really is something about owning the car for so many years then you can legally ship it or something... I dunno importing is such a touchy thing nowadays..

If you have the dough to spend on something like that why are you asking here? Call up your local us customs office.

The actual shipping isn't what's expensive it's the taxes and crap you have to go through to register it in the US.

You have to have it de tuned and up to snuff with US emmissons. They aren't expensive to import, its all the stuff that needs to be done to it after it hits US soil.

Motorex is the importer for Skylines. You would be hard pressed to get one through customs on your own. The glass needs to be DOT approved, the emissions need improved, it needs to have a VIN assigned. It is really quite hard to import a skyline since it was never sold in the states. (if it was easy, don't you think there would be more running around)
