Rhd conversion gone wrong
We all have read and seen the rhd conversion done. There is a good amount of how to's on this site and some great info on the correct way of doing this. What you dont hear about is the conversion that go terribly wrong. Has anybody heard any horror stories about a rhd drive going wrong.
I'm just wondering I have a 94 gsr that I'm pretty much bored with.I already have the jdm front end, 5 lug, jdm type r interior. I'm thinking this would be my next step/project. Nobody in my area is sitting on the right side its funny because I really dont think people even know ita a integra. Here's a pic

Hm, but I never heard of anything that went completely wrong...

thanks for the compliments. I guess the biggest complaint is the amount of time it takes. I can get the swap for 350 thats everything. 500 with the doors but my doors have been shaved and The jdm glass isn't safe so I'm going to stay away from it.

Wow, haha, for some reason I can see that happening. I'm sure there are tons and tons of people who just glance over the car and have no idea what it is. A rhd conversion on it would trip those same people out even more.

I personally never heard no horror stories on people having there conversions go wrong. But the worst I heard is when you have your new firewall in. To make sure it's on perfectly. And all the spot weld holes line up to each other.Other wise your windshield always be cracking and that would suck lol.Just have fun and be careful and that's pretty much it.P.s I know because my buddy does Rhd conversions as a living lol.Here's just some pictures of his car
My buddy Roberts integra (his girlfriends car)



,And his car


sorry for the only picture of the interior almost completed in this picture.

Yeah rhd is cool and all. I have to say tho, that since we don't live in japan and we drive on the other side of the road i think the money could be spent in other places. All the cars pictured are awesome looking. Good luck on your build
i dont mean to jack your thread, but if your car is already registered in CA, will you have any problems after? like the DMV wont call one day and say random inspection right!? haha just wondering
