OMG A RHD 4 lug! LOL

 

Where can i get an engine like THAT?!?!

 

sweat-shop

 

not bad....

That's a funny looking motor though... some Nike's may give you 1 more hp... that and candy bar as NOS.

 

it'll look good until you install it into the car.... unless you have a way of covering up the exposed shifter assembly now that you cut that off but it looks like you have some fabrication skills, so im sure that already on the drawing board.... congrats on being creative!

personally, i think you should have made the glove box flush... or are you gonna reinstall the door?

 

Looks sweet... but I'm with Vipers with wanting to know how it'll look in the car...

 

Looks like a right hand side dash, is that legal in the states?

 

Hope your not running that thing with an open header....the fumes would kill you.

 

haha first off im trying to find the other pix on the dash in the car and secondly this is in japan but i am going to do this on my car iv already bought the aluminum sheets all the tools needed but im not starting this project untill i find out what size gauges im getting but its an idea iv been looking for to see if its worth doing so yea ill be posting up when i start the project, if anyone has done this before let me know if theres anything else i should know before doing this

 

of course it is. you can import cars from japan now. up here in canada we can only import cars that are 15 years old and more (www.importconcern.ca is an exemple) so i'm sure you guys can have those right hand drive cars too =)

a guy i know has an rhd FD in Florida

 

Actually, you cant in the U.S. There are people have that have but its not really clearly legal like in canada. its like a bunch of fancy paperwork and lots of money and time and its usually pretty top secret.

 

oh em gee i want those gauges.

 

That is true... I was gonna buy a Cosmo from a friend in the carribean... The car=$5K.. to import it ~ 3k and to legalize it was ~ $6K... I said **** it and just had him send me the engine, lol...

 

so i guess it's true what i heard about the motorex guy having problems with his gtr. i thought you guys could import any cars =\ thanks for the clarification

 

Yea... we can import any car... it just depends on how much money you have to legalize it... They will let you import it, but you wont be able to drive/register it until it is legalized which is gay...

 

yea that's sucks =\

nothing major involved here ... price of car, shipping from Vancouver BC to wherever you are and then registration which is like any other car. I wana import an FC or maybe an FD next year. the 1st FDs are turning 15 in december

/threadjack ok i'm done ... lol

 

thats a sweet assed dash. i like it

will look really good, very stripper special

 

Yeah, the thing about motorex is true. He had only legalized the R33, but he was selling R32's and 34's as well. Its technically possible, but not worth it unless you have a ton of money.

 

theres a place here in fl called skyline imports, they do r32s to fd's to even escort cosworth rs's oh and they even finance, i was YEEEEEE close to getting a r32 gts for 12k and all i had to do was drive 3 hours a pick it up. but ever since my trip to pr iv felt my blood pumping for a rotary and so i did and saved me a heeeeeeeeeeeeeep of dough....well for now lol

 

Actually The Guy From Motorex Is In Jail. They Only Legalised R32s And Everything Is Else Is Under Radar. Hes In Deep Fro A Bunch Of Other Illegal Activities

 

OH, was it r32's? Anyway, he had something like a $1,000,000 bail for stuff much worse that illegal importation - money laundering, racketeering, etc.

 

omg 1M bail haha so he's in deep uh

 

Yay for home built dashboards, looks really good man, it'll be nice to see what it looks like in the car.
I couldn't stand that lip by the idiot cluster, and the block switches on the sides of the gauges. so I went full custom.
Here is mine, not finished yet.
