25 Year-Old Law and Why Living In CA Sucks - GTChannel

Imported Vehicle Safety Compliance Act of 1988, AKA the "25 Year-Old Law" is precisely the reason why we can't import certain cars into the US until they are 2.5 decades old. Sean Morris from Top Rank explains to us what exactly is the 25 year-old law and even more why it's harder to drive these car in the State of California. #jdm #GTR #fastclass Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards -------------- Visit us at http://www.gtchannel.com Like us on FB: http://www.facebook.com/gtchannel Instagram: http://instagram.com/gtchannel/ Send us video ideas on Twitter: https://twitter.com/GTChannel

Paul Walker's Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 - Fast Class

By Sean Morris August 19, 2020 Chassis:R34, Fast and Furious, Featured, GT Channel, Motorex, Paul Walker

Paul Walker's Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 - Fast Class

Subscribe to GTChannel: https://goo.gl/g5wlmE

Paul Walker became a fan of the Nissan Skyline GT-R through the Fast and the Furious movies. In early 2000s he and Fast & Furious consultant Craig Lieberman both bought Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 through MotoRex. MotoRex was the only legal importer of the Skyline GT-R at the time. This is before things went South with MotoRex, which is another story on it's own. We interviewed Sean Morris who was at MotoRex at the time and currently is a director at Top Rank Vehicle Importers in Cypress California. The R34 GT-R that MotoRex sold to Paul Walker is now back with Sean and Top Rank. We talked with Sean on how this car became Paul's car and where it went after Paul traded the car in for another (his second) R34 GT-R.
