Converting RHD to LHD
 

What do you guys think would be the biggest problem I would encounter trying to swap a RHD 7 to LHD?? I might be getting one of these by next month or so. ANd a company is offering me to do the complete job, but i want to have an idea of what is that they need to do.

so what are the parts that I woudl need, and what would be the biggest problem when swapping? according to them is just easy, but they dont have experience in these cars, They do have a lot of experience, but mostly toyota vehicles

Ummmm, why?

No offense, but RHD would be cool. The fastest way to swap would prolly be to trade with someone else....I am sure someone would do it.

my friend have a real jdm fd for sale, its street legal.

I would say, sell the RHD for alot and just pick up a LHD for alot less.

why would you swap or sell a 98-02 FD for a 93-95 one???

I dont know....I would not do it, but, its his car so up to him.

your biggest problem would be the wiring harness like the ones for the abs fuel pump lights...and switching the windsield wiper motor.

Im not trying to swap it for a 93-95. The thing is i am going to bring one from Japan, and since you cant drive a RHD here in DR, Ill have to change it to LHD. So I am trying to find out what should I pay more attention to, in terms of difficulty to swap from right to left.



Abs fuel pump lights?? You mean the one that turns on on the dash?

I thought about the winshields. Do you think Ill have to get new motors? or is there some way to use the same ones. (by swapping them or somethink like it)

I thought that it was possible to drive RHD cars in the USA though? Ive seen alot of skylines that are RHD.

I think its only permited in California

you can drive a RHD here in Ohio!

i've got a nice 93 i'll trade him.

Im not looking for a trade, the purpose of this thread is to know about the difficulties I might encounter trying to swap the car to LHD. Anyone??

Id be interested to learn this also... Ive got a RHD mini cooper in my garage right now

the plugs under dash that go to the back of the car they are differnet and routed differnt so you have to extend some wires and for the winshield wipers you have to put the wiper motor on the other side of the firewall because the brake booster is blocking it.
