Default RHD guys. Just about to start my conversion.

Hey looking for any tips and things to look out for while doing this.
Or anything else you would like to share about doing this such project. Know a lot about it already and I think I have just about everything I need. I was jsut looking for some insight from someone who has done it before.

Thanks in advance. I will be posting up pictures of the conversion with some "how tos."

The before picture:

Not planning on it at all. I have plenty of time to do it right, thats for sure. Its the money part that im partly worried about.

Anyone know what the estimated cost usually ends up being?

F that. Skip the RHD conversion and buy another project. K20A Hatch, S2000, something. Your car is sick. 2 cool cars > 1 cool car

Why? So you have to go through McDonalds drive through in reverse? It will be sick, but your car is already literally my favorite Integra ever. Looks so sweet.

Thanks man I really appreciate that but in my opinion this will only make it better.
I was planning on taking the motor out anyway for a rebuild so i figure thsis is a good oppurtunity, plus i can tuck some of teh harness while doing this and have a reason to repaint and clean up my engine bay.

Just one big project to solve all my problems
