Nice progress. Can either one of you or both explain the registration process in detail? Either here or PM? I am interested In getting one, but really don't have the desire to have a 15k paperweight or paperwork in limbo, or worse, car seized... Puff, I think you are in NY, but you have Montana plates? Just trying to gain as much knowledge as possible... Thanks.

I'm just waiting on the title in the mail so I can register it in NY. I should receive it any day now but it is registered out of state temporarily.

Damn bro. This car is awesome. I've been trying to get info on importing one. I live in nj and can't get any straight answers. Any suggestions for me? I've found a ton of nice looking aristo online but I don't want to buy one and not be able to register it. Thanks. Btw that nterior is sick. I love it.

From one GS to another huh. Nice pick up, hope you checked the compression...If you plan on pushing 500whp you better upgrade the trans or run a really big cooler and pray. The stock 4spd doesn't like anything over 500whp, atleast not for long. Get a supra rear 3.76 LSD, that's what I'm running. Good luck with the build, do it right....
