only real difference is the emissions equipment when it comes to wiring.

i've heard some stories of the wiring being pretty hectic due to the jdm's being wired for right hand drive.

nah, no noticable difference, it's not like u'll be slaving over the wiring harness for 6 extra hours...

pretty much same ****, the RHD doesn't mean much, I mean the engine's still shaped the same way, the TB cable jsut goes around instead of straight up & accross like LHD cars... aight maybe that's a bad example, but it's pretty much the same if ya catch my drift

you can actually do the swap without making a single wire longer, and the only real difference is that you will have an evap plug left over and you need a new throttle cable, or like a lot of people you could rig the one thats in your car now
