Ok now I have had the pleasure of riding in a Skyline GT-R Vspec and I would have to tell you this...it hooks up and gets friggin gone! Handled better than my Z and was one freaky ride in the countyrside.
So ummm whatever
EDIT:
If you plan on getting parts in Japan and shipping them be sure to learn a fair amount of Japanese to do so. I have been here 7 years and I am getting into it now heavily. Massive market and all the JDM you can handle.

APOs FPOs and post offices
Yeah that is a very nice loophole but remember to intermediate ship it becuase im pretty sure you can't return post a package to a APO or FPO if say someone doesn't want it they can't just send it back directly to you with an RA#. I was stationed on a ship for 5 years, granted it wasn't overseas so thier might be differnt rules. Also its ONLY USPS, not UPS or fedex as far as i know and and USPS isn't as close to 100% reliable as the other 2.
