What do you guys think about that?

The main problem about LHD's is that they are WAY more expansive than RHD's :S

Any facts, suggestions?

Thx!

RHD RX-7s are often imported cheaply but you don't know the condition of them and it's just as easy to get a worn out POS. Remember that just because it's RHD, does not mean that it was taken care of.

 

Reselling it will be almost impossible. Getting used to the driving will not be the hardest though.

I also agree with the poor condition mentioned by Aaron Cake, in Vancouver there are quite a bit of RHD FDs and once I talked to a FD repair shop that said they are very often wreck, previous owner would beat the cr#p out of it. If you go down that route I'd make it inspected before (by someone who knows about FD). I does not mean that it's all wrong, it's just that you got to be careful.

Good luck in your research.

 

Its a trip geting used to driving a RH. I get a bunch of funny looks too But its not all that hard passing on a 2 lane road can be hard and taking turns to sharp is common also parking was a task all in its own. but as they said above try to look at the car in person dont trust pics and if u dont have a friend that knows about them. look at aaron site on buying sevens the inside of the car can tell you alot about how the person treated the car. good luck

 

only ppl that talk about rhds around here are jdm nuts. to me, its just a fad and if you want the real thing, go for it. my suggestion is dont convert. i've heard that the car's frame would be difficult to work with. so best of luck to you.

 

Alot of guys do the conversion on s13's and ae86 chassis by cutting the firewall but i dont know alot about rx-7 chassis so i dont know id it would be a heavy supporting factor in the chassis rigidity
