1984 Honda Crx conversion
I am looking for some helpful info if not advice on doing a conversion to my Crx. It's a G1 84' Crx with no motor and no interior. I've been looking at the inside of the engine bay and thought it might be fairly easy to do a conversion on this car with out a conversion kit by flipping the rack and pinnion. If I am wrong or if there are some easier ways to change the driving sides please let me know.

you can't just flip the rack.. you are destroying a whole bunch of geometry.. not to mention this is a terrible idea. you have to change everything from the dash, to the wipers, steering, brakes, lines.. etc...

Re: 1984 Honda Crx conversion
never realized that, but now that i really think about it.. the right side wiper on a lhd car doesnt really "wipe" the windshield to give you a clear view as well as it does for the driver.. so i guess it really is a must.. unless you dont want to see in the rain, as if getting used to being on the wrong side of the road isnt hard enough lolz

Re: 1984 Honda Crx conversion
I know that i have to change a lot of things but i was just wondering about the column attachment to the rack. If it would work if flipped if not thats fine I just thought it might.

Re: 1984 Honda Crx conversion
you'd also have to switch the dash bar where the steering column mounts. if you really want to go through with this, your best bet is to find a front clip to purchase. there are a lot of different things that you would want to do to make this work right.
