...which again is illegal.

So what you are saying is that it is illegal to import a right hand drive car into the UAE, convert it, and then try and register it? On another note gt, Would you reccomend that I get rid of any cars older then 10-20 years by the end of this year or should I keep them?

I think that it is illegal to bring a S15 to UAE. First, right hand is forbidden in UAE. However, if you can get someone to register it for you then it will be 100% legal. 2nd, get rid of the cars which are more than 10 years old. There is a new rule here in UAE saying that all cars more that 10 years will not be REJESTERED. But those which are classic cars will be registered after passing the TEST.

Just to slightly correct the post above it's 15 years or older they wont renew registration, 20 year old cars will be allowed for next year and then no cars older then 15 years starting 2010. Cars older than 10 years, you won't be able to register under a different name, i.e. you won't be able to sell a car older than 10 years old as the person buying won't be able to register it.

As said below: in all honesty forget it. Leave it at home.
However, if you want it as a dedicated track car, then you will have no problems BUT, you will have to trailer it to the track, you will not be allowed to drive it on the roads.
