Can you get a right hand drive car legally inspected in the U.S.? Or would you have to pay to have it converted (or convert it here)?

you don’t ‘convert’ to left hand drive… you just have it pass all the dot tests and it’s legal… only a handful of companies do the certification, as you would have to crash a lot of skylines to prove it is dot legal.

Ok, so even if that Skyline came to the US as a normal left hand drive car, it still wouldn’t be able to be inspected or anything b/c its not been crash tested and the such to be certified to be driven in the U.S.?

I think RBmotoring does it too…but those are the only two companies. and it costs a shitload. Not really worth it in my opinion.

pure horseshit IMHO. They are asking 200K for this car that is supposedly uber rare and all they have are some dimly lit pics from a car show?
