Narrative:
While flying at 1800' MSL tracking inbound on the srq localizer one mile outside of outer marker on a visual approach to runway 32, a twin engine light aircraft went by my aircraft approximately 100' below and 100' to my right side at a 135 degree angle. This aircraft was reported at 1700' by jacksonville center before we switched to tpa approach control. Before talking to tpa approach, that aircraft was west of the localizer and paralleling outbound. Tpa within asked, informed me that it was outside his airspace and VFR so perfectly legal. The light twin's pilot used extremely poor judgement in not talking to approach while flying through a localizer 100' below glide slope intercept altitude.

Title: NMAC WITH ACFT TRANSITING THE AREA IN THE VICINITY OF THE OUTERMARKER AND NEAR OUTER MARKER CROSSING ALT. IN THE SRQ ARSA.
Narrative: WHILE FLYING AT 1800' MSL TRACKING INBOUND ON THE SRQ LOC ONE MILE OUTSIDE OF OUTER MARKER ON A VISUAL APCH TO RWY 32, A TWIN ENGINE LIGHT ACFT WENT BY MY ACFT APPROX 100' BELOW AND 100' TO MY R SIDE AT A 135 DEG ANGLE. THIS ACFT WAS REPORTED AT 1700' BY JACKSONVILLE CENTER BEFORE WE SWITCHED TO TPA APCH CTL. BEFORE TALKING TO TPA APCH, THAT ACFT WAS WEST OF THE LOC AND PARALLELING OUTBOUND. TPA WITHIN ASKED, INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS OUTSIDE HIS AIRSPACE AND VFR SO PERFECTLY LEGAL. THE LIGHT TWIN'S PLT USED EXTREMELY POOR JUDGEMENT IN NOT TALKING TO APCH WHILE FLYING THROUGH A LOC 100' BELOW GLIDE SLOPE INTERCEPT ALT.
