The police are also restricted more heavily than a private investigator such as L. They have to go by the book.
Smart enough, but it's not a question of smarts. It's a question of mindset. If Kira is L, then I think it's more likely he isn't fully aware of it himself. The stress of his position could be getting to him enough to drive him to split his identity deeper than just acting.
Kira and L do have something in common: a fairly strong sense of justice. They could have been in one another's places easily, but I don't think either of them would swap sides now. If they could, neither of them would be the kind of people we think they are.
I can't be sure, but I think Kira is in Japan. I went back as far as I could, and the first death matching Kira's MO was a fairly obscure Japanese criminal. If he is in Japan, it's statistically most likely he's somewhere in Tokyo.
