After a while it doesn't really change anything. You just have to adjust a bit in the beginning to make sure you aren't drifting too far to the left of the lane. Shifting is still second nature.
You, however, do grab more attention from other people because they tend to be so bewildered by the fact that you are on the right hand side.

I'm torn whether to follow your build or not Pete... the lust it stirs for a beautiful 'stock' FD is giving me an insufferable case of "rotary blau-*****"! Worst of all, last week's GME stock windfall could painlessly fund it. You ARE the Devil, and you car is your chariot of temptation!

Fun Saturday photo shoot at Navarre Beach, FL.
We had:
My RX-7 Type-RZ
2 R33 GTR
R34 GTR
NSX
Supra
Silvia
Here are some iPhone photos from the day. Professional shots coming later that I can’t wait to share! You can also expect to see our cars featured in some upcoming national advertising for CarPro, which is a detail/ ceramic coating business with installers across the USA.

So small update...
Finally got around to ordering my ShineAuto parts this week. Lead time on them will be a few months while being made but here is what I have ordered:
Shine Auto FEED Replica Side Skirts Carbon Twill
Shine Auto RE-2 Street Rear Diffuser Carbon Twill
Shine Auto 99 Spec Carbon Twill Lip
Shine Auto Odula Replica 99 Wing Insert Carbon Twill
Other planned items will be RX-Light LED headlights here shortly and Sakebomb Wilwood Brake Kit with Rear upgrades & Stainless Steel Lines.
Should make for some interesting installs this Winter.
