why would you do this? unless your a mail man this makes no sence to me......in fact i find it RETARDED.


now dont get me wrong. i have seen a few threads pop up here and there were someone has gotten a RHD clip with their engine and decided to take on the project them selves or had a friend or two that had skills that could help in the process (welding, body work, ect.) but to ask "any one know of a RHD conversion shop?" is the dumbest thing i have ever heard of........they dont exist! sure theres a body shop that would say "yea we can do it" but not a shop dedicated to it.

I said it once, and I'll say it again, go get a job at the Post Office, you can be JDM for 8 hours a day!

I just don't see the point of this. Sure some of your friends might think it's neat, but our laws, roads, etc just aren't set up for it. No more drive thru's, at food places, banks, whatever. Passing would be down right dangerous as hell. I just don't see the appeal, a hell of a lot of work and money for an annoyance.

You just have to do drive-thrus and banks in reverse..... OR have friends
I don't see how passing would be dangerous? You can't see less because you are on the right.

However, it is a waste of money to do a conversion, when you could just BUY an already RHD version in the states and swap everything over IMO.

If you are on the right side of the car you can not see around the car in front of you until you are all the over in the other lane. Its not that you see less, it is you cant see oncoming cars until you are in the other lane.

Just import a car, far more cool than a conversion.
