Should I RHD convert my rolling 94 GSR 4dr or sell it
I already tried searching but it is unavailable right now.
I have a 1994 Acura Integra GSR 4dr. Thinking of converting or selling this darn thing.
PRO:
Currently Registered to 2006
2.5" Piping with aftermarket muffler
Shaved side moldings
Painted Gun Metal
JDM SiR-G cluster
JDM / Stock H emblem
JDM SiR-G front nose
JDM SiR-G Fenders - no sidemarkers
CON:
Salvage Title - Due to Theft Recovery
It's a 1994 and not a 1995
Tan Interior
Rear drums
Damage VIS Racing CF Hood
Both airbag blown
No Engine
No Transmission
No ECU
Conflicts: The place I live is a community neighborhood and so they complain that I've been working on this project. So do you guys recommend to sell the rolling shell.
Time Frame of Work: Well I ask my friend and he told me I can work on the car inside his garage. But it won't be until like a month or so. I'm uncertain about the time frame. Right now the car is just sitting on the side.

Now I think about it I should do the RHD conversion cause I know that nobody will buy a rolling shell that has tan interior.

I think RHD conversions are a waste of $$...why not put the money into the engine (get one first) instead.

Annnnd your point is? There was no difference between the 94 and 95 DB8 other than maybe a interior fabric change....Unless you know of some secret that I dont...

JDM ITR starts at 95 and not at 94. Unless you prove me some information that I'm wrong.

I just want to say first off, this is not my car. I am just giving you my opinon.
It is a wast of your time and $ if you do the right hand drive swap.
Look around, you can swap your hole tan inteiror for around $300. WAY CHEAPER!
Do you have any idea how much work is involved to do a RHD swap? It takes alot of time, and unless it's done professionally people are not to excited about it.
i would sell the shell, you are not going to make you money back it! Salvage doesn't sell for what its worth, because insurnce sucks on them!
The only people that get a decent price on the RHD tegs are people the invest $20,000 do a whole JDM swap completly rebuilds it by professionals and then they get like $15,000 for them on a CLEAN TITLE! these are cars that are so sick that they win shows, and get on the cover of magazines!

I suggest you DO NOT DO IT. DC2 tegs make more money then DB8's even though there arn't many.

What good does that do? Still does not make it worth more and that just means you'd be lying by trying to pass it off as something that it is not. And even if you do it yourself, the parts will still cost you money (more than the shell is worth IMO)

And? Your car is NOT a JDM ITR, it is a USDM 4dr GSR (a really messed up one at that). Doing a RHD conversion, will NOT make it an Si VTEC or and ITR.
It's your car and you can do what you want, but I strongly advise you to change your mind

Your choice from the get go, in my persona.....I am always very firm when it comes down to clean title or salvage. Getting involved w/salvaged cars is always a
idea from my professional stand. I have seen some pretty jacked up **** happened to people w/those cars. I would get a legit clean car if it were up to me. Up to you though either way

Alright I just converted it and the car is still naked. So I'm deciding on what paint I should paint it. Planning to paint the car inside and out from nicks nacks, engine bay, inside of the car, trunk, pretty much everywhere. Both windshield has been removed and window moldings has been removed as well.
