Right Hand Drive Supras?

I currently live in okinawa japan and i have a jdm rhd supra, it is possible to bring a jdm supra back, the thing is that the cost out here to have it shipped to your to a state like FL in your name will cost about 10 grand. maybe 12 grand. what one of the companies do is they convert the bumpers windows and things like that then register it threw canada then drive it to the states then register it in one of the states.
my buddy brought back his 96 skyline like that and another one of my buddies brought back a 94 supra. it is possible but when i tried to ask the man at the DOT department of transportation he said if you have a "RI" doing your vehicle and he just pretty much scams out the whole "conversion" your car will get impounded and you will never see it again. i you get pulled over.
the best way is threw canada cause my friends never had problems. im saving up $10,000 so i can bring my 93 supra back its a N/a but it will be a monster when you all see it in MIAMI.
also the man at the DOT said 1 week ago in cali they impounded 2 skylines r33's cause they were speeding and they never saw their car again.
also he said make sure you keep the "ri's info incase you get a fine.
good luck im still hoping my importation will go through.
