Question US spec (LHD) DP on my RHD FD...?
Hey guys,

Ive heard that the downpipe for the US spec (LHD) FDs wont fit my RHD. this is supposedly becuase the stearing rack gets in the way of one of the bends...
could anyone verify this, and does anyone know where I can get my hands on a Jap DP?

thanks

To further clarify, the HKS has the RHD steering clearance.
