Japanese used vehicle exporting is a grey market international trade involving the export of used cars and other vehicles from Japan to other markets around the world since the 1980s.
Despite the high cost of transport, the sale of used cars and other vehicles to other countries is still profitable due to the relatively low cost and good condition of the vehicles being purchased. Contributing factors to the feasibility of such export include Japan's strict motor-vehicle inspections and high depreciation which make such vehicles worth very little in Japan after six years, and strict environmental-protection regulations that make vehicle disposal very expensive in Japan. Japan has very stringent vehicle emission test standards.
Generally, most exporters are responsible for the organization and completion of the vehicle's transportation until it arrives at the importer's Port of Destination (POD). At the POD, possession of the vehicle, and the responsibility of possession, is laid on the importer. Financial responsibility, on the other hand, is transferred when ownership is handed over. Ownership is switched after the car has been purchased and before being exported. In the case of damage or losses occurrinAny vehicle more than 15 years old may be imported to Canada without regard to its compliance with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. However, vehicles are registered at the provincial level in Canada, and increasingly stringent sub-national vehicle safety requirements make it difficult to register a Japanese-market vehicle without replacement or modifications to the headlamps and other lights and reflectors, the window glass, the tires, the seatbelts, and other equipment.g during shipping, the buyer is the one bears all financial loss.
mporting rules for the UK are stringent; all vehicles must undergo Individual Vehicle Approval to assure compliance with applicable ECE Regulations or British national equivalents. The speedometer must be converted from kilometres per hour to miles per hour, a rear fog light and unleaded-fuel restrictor installed.
The above only applies to cars of an age below ten years at the time of import to the UK. Older vehicles than this require a rear fog lamp in order to pass MOT, but that only has to be installed to MOT regulations, not to the standard set out for newer cars under the IVA rules, so as long as the fog lamp(s) is/are fitted with a telltale, which may take the form of a lamp within the switch or a simple marker that becomes visible when the toggle is in its switch closed position (fog lamp in use). Unlike newer JDM imports, the lamp as fitted to ten yr + cars doesn't have to be wired through the dipped beam or marker circuit, it simply has to be present and to work in line with the rules regarding the telltale.
Speedometers and odometers may show KM/H and even with no additional markings to show MPH, are perfectly legal for UK use, it soon becomes second nature to learn one's 0.6217 times table and although cars such as my own Toyota bBs can easily have a scan of the US market Scion xB (the American version of the first gen bB) speedo pasted over the one the car came with, it's not essential. Speedo converter ICs, often sold on eBay at over £50 by people who buy the actual chips themselves for around £11 for a pack of two in Maplin's, are a bad idea as they tend to alter the gearchange points of the electronic "learning" gearboxes found in so many JDM cars. MOT stations are able to write the distance covered as shown on the odometer in KM and this is perfectly legal under the new test rules that were rolled out on the 20th of May this year (2018).
The only other requirement for testing and registering a JDM import in the UK is that any pre-2004, Japanese market alarm & immobiliser system must be removed before the car can be deregistered prior to its move to the UK, this sometimes slips through the proverbial net but as the connection points on the JDM vehicle's loom are suitable for a Thatcham approved (UK legal) security system, it's just a case of budgeting for a decent Toad system or similar when buying from the Japanese supplier.
