Yep, I know of two in NY state and another in Florida. R32’s. There isn’t really any grey area here despite what people will lead you to believe. R32’s and R34’s are not legal PERIOD in the states (Unless it’s a grandfathered MotoRex car). R33’s can be legalized for a fee with a registered importer ($$$). R32’s will be legal here after 25 years opposed to your 15, so uh Early 2014 late 2013? (Did they have 1988 production dates for not GTR’s?)

I dunno if its a specific amount of km’s but they will win in court as the government cannot prove as to how many km’s they drive the vehicle and whether it is for show purposes and such…

Nope, I can assure you those cars will be crushed. The fed will claim Kaizo was rebranding chassis from Nissan that were otherwise unmodified, which makes them a Nissan chassis, with the original drivetrain in them, which is a CLEAR violation of EPA and nhtsa/dot regulations.
