That would be pretty sweet to have a right hand drive car, especially since you don't have to get used to shifting it.

Very nice.

The shop I dynoed at a couple years ago with my last car here in Pittsburgh, had an really old Cosmo. They specialized in uphill racing, and it was one of their cars. They did a massive *** port to it and couldn't get it to run when I was there. They're turbo CRX was nice though.

I'm tempted to keep it mostly stock but as most know these things tend to get out of hand easily. Thinking maybe some lowered springs, tint, exhaust and air filter. Then I'd probably need an upgraded ECU to get rid of the boost cut and a bigger intercooler would be nice too.
