Default LHD Conversion?

I've only seen a 2001-2004 Honda Integra Type-R with RHD (right hand drive), but I'm actually looking for a car with left hand drive, does anyone know if you can convert it to LHD? And how much that will cost and who does it? Any sites or company's?

Thanks.

What's up with the DC5-R's? That's RHD aswell, right?

BTW, that's http://www.a-spectuning.com right?

No, A-Spec was a very overpriced option package from Acura.

I don't think you did.

But uhmmm... is it possible to convert a car to LHD? Like the 2001-2004 Honda Integra Type-R. And I don't 'just' want a Type-R. I've seen the Acura RSX Concept-R that had to look like it... well, I don't like the interior. Suede on the dash.. I mean.. wtf?

But anyway, does anyone here know where I can get a Type-R converted to LHD?

Well there is, just not a DC5R. I posted that to prevent confusion from others.

I would imagine the USDM RSX LHD dash and all the other crap would swap in, plus the door panels, etc.

You might be able to get more responses in the RSX forum since most ITR owners in this forum own DC2s.

LHD DC5R? Hmmm, a little bit difficult i guess. I own a DC2R 96 Spec and converted it to LHD. It was not so hard, bought some OEM parts and did everything again. The most difficult thing in the DC5 i guess is that engine bay is way too small, i mean, in DC2 there is at least some space to work, you can relocate battery, steering pump etc etc.
