Regarding JDM imports, I bid on 4 over the last 3 months through Bpro.

You want 98 for 5 lug and bigger brakes. Every half decent one was at least $20k CAD landed. Even 96 is not cheap anymore because Americans are buying them up since they are close to 25 years old. They all had some kind of deal breaker for me like a cage or noticeable accident damage in the engine bay. As well you are always taking a big risk since you buy based on crappy pictures.

In the end I didn’t want want to pay $20k and have RHD. The days of the cheap ITR are over.
