No more JDM RHD imports allowed into Canada by RIV
Hello All,
Be careful!!
I got this info from John Scotti Auto yesterday. It appears that Canada RIV will no longer accept JDM RHD imports or allow them to be plated for regular road use if the vehicle is less than 25 years of age form the date of manufacturer. This means no more RHD FD's allowed since none have reached the age maturity of 25 years old.
From What I was told they changed the law as of April 1st, 2008 and is in effect as of that date.
USA LHD cars are still admissible with no required mods if more than 15 years old (1993 FD) while under 15 years old they still require the Daytime running lights, KM's added. and bumper mods (94/95 FD's).
This means your car had to have been landed in Canada before April 1st. Anyone who has plans to or a car currently in transit look into it before going further.
Regards
Max
