Is it a US govt reqt that you go thru an importer? I read in the ST205 FB group that in the UK, the buyers can deal directly with the seller in Japan and make the shipping arrangements themselves. Well.. at least that's how I understand their posts

Nope you can do everything yourself. It really comes down to how much risk your willing to take. Did you want customs to crush your purchase at the docks because you missing a detail?
If your interested I would suggest
Jdm Importer | United States | The Import Guys I did use them for a bit and they are legit. They just don’t have boots on the ground in Japan. I’m using right hand drive out of Canada. They have an office in Tokyo so they have been sending me local picts as well. You can import a 15 year old truck into Canada. Unlike the US where it’s 25 years. This way you can import newer month/year trucks and store them in Canada. Storage in Japan is very expensive.
Anyways the import guys have a nice faq and give you a breakdown of all the costs. IMO the 1000$ they charge for bidding, shipping, import docs and overall logistics is worth it.
