I'm guessing, that unlike the GT-R, the silvia along with other cars that have an "american" counterpart makes it a lot easier to register here. Maybe telling a little fib on the owners part helps too.

i claim BS. If that car is as hard to federalize as a GT-R, there's no way he went through and crossed his T's and dotted his I's. Who did the crash testing?
The headlights -> hood gap looks wrong to me, and the amber turn signals on the air dam look wrong also.
Part of me says I'd bring over an R-32 GT-R and never register it.. just drive it at the track... but thats a lot of coin for not a lot of driving.. and I've already got a track car.
Isn't it true that once a vehicle is 25 years old you can import it no questions asked (comparatively) ? If so, 2015 is when you'll be able to bring over R-32 GT-Rs and street them easily/legally. It might be worth it to bring some over now, put them in a barn, and sit on them. Hrmm

Re-read what IchibanKiller said. The S14 was here in the US. Legally, all he has to do is have dual airbags and install glass from a USDM S14. Therefore, he doesn't need to do crash testing, as this was already accomplished by Nissan USA in 1995.
The amber signals: Those are J-spec signals on a J-spec front bumper. The reason it looks goofy is because the foglights are missing, which would fill in the gap.
Headlight gap: Look at the back of his hood. It's got spacers in it, just like mine and Fabers. When you do this, it throws off the front part of the hood a little bit. If he were to put it back at stock configuration, it would all line up perfectly.
25 year age limit: Correct, 25 years, supposedly no questions asked. This is how a USAF officer got his black 1971 Hakosuka GT-R brought over. Pics of it are in my NOPI 07 pics thread.
I believe it's legal. Hell, there's 2 legal S15's in my town right now.

Ya know I'm not an import guy but I like the silvia front ends especially the s15's That thing is pretty sweet, like faber said boo on the bolt in cage tho.

I am not even going to start. Look at peters post.
what about all the EDM and JDM front end conversions..... Ebay lights, HID swaps.....
Also, a R32 is not that expensive, you just see all the hardcore overpriced shit on the US forums.
