On a more positive note, your CRX is sweet (even though it is JDM to the core)

Well you have to cut out the firewall, and put in the JDM one. It would probably be cheaper to ship one from Japan and drive it around here. There are ways of getting it registered.

That car is a conversion. It was originally a LHD, cut and converted to RHD.

Still, one of the best looking EG6's I've ever seen.
