none of us care

RHD conversions are gay and a waste of money. search this has been covered many times.

 

you can call most place that can get JDM motor, they can usually get them....I have been told to stay away from STI but most other motor places sell them...

I am trying to purchase one now but am having pricing "problems"

 

you can get a rhd conversion clip from HMO (hmotorsonline.com) its about $800-$1400. If you do it good luck I did it on my car and it does take a while. let me know if you have any questions.

 

Do some research

RHD conversions aren't something you order off the interweb and jump right into.

I did SEARCH! i just thought maybe people had experiences they might wanna share with me. Oh and for ur info i do know what kind of work and time it's gonna take but i really dont care cause im bored and i need to do something to my car, so i figure why not do a RHD conversion if it isnt too expensive. i just got off the phone with steve over at HMO and he quoted me $350 for a front clip with no engine or body pannels... looks like ill be RHD in about a month!

Hmmm...not quite...it has been discussed and flamed over and over, but find a thread that has a link to an actually RHD conversion shop. I know there's one in FL, I used to talk to the guy. His AIM s/n is RHDCivicEG, but he's never online anymore. I wouldn't say they're gay either. Its really nice when its all done, if its done right. Its just most people would rather spend $2000 elsewhere.

For the original poster, its not just the $350 for the shell. Thats a good price, but conside the fact that the harness needs to accomodate a RHD vehicle, breaking all old welds, and rewelding the RHD firewall won't be cheap or easy. A new windshield is also a must. A lot more work and time into it than you expect. Good luck in whatever you decide though.

 

if you can weld, drill, or most other metal working things....it shouldn't be to teribly hard....I am a welder and I plan on doing one to an eg hatch...I also plan on doing a 2000 front end conversion.... Have fun and post pics

 

enjoy spending $thousands$ and dozens of hours to drive on the WRONG side of the ******* road!

 

i love being broke...and I am fixing a car to drive like that...It will cost me around 1500 and paint to get it done

I hope you aren't actually trying to tell me I can't afford modding my car...if you are, I'll PM you the link to my K20A2 build up that will cost more than your whole wanna-be JDM car. And yes, I do have a PhD in getting *****.

 

Interesting thread.

 

lol sorry not trying to be an ***, but I mean when I see people spending 1500+dollars to drive on the wrong side of the car, and then see people begging on the corner because they can't even afford food, I get kinda irritated. next time I'll just mind my own business.

One question, Then why are just being a hater? all im asking is that you keep negative comments to yourself please. Remember everybody has different tastes... it would suck if we all had the same car

i get ur point but remember it can be flipped too, im sure you could have donated to the red cross instead of building a k20 hatch... its just the extra things that we work hard so we can afford you know?? and if this was gonna cost me more than 600 i wouldnt do it either, i just happened to find a good deal
