AAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

So many n00bs with so many big plans and so little knowledge to remotely pull them off!!!!

RHD is right hand drive--a basic feature of every JDM car.

yeah, before you start wanting to know how to import a jdm-mobile, learn the "lingo" and most important of all, the car!!!

I dont know about a project car.... this one's already finished, ready to race.

Still deciding whether to sell, I'd want $9,200 firm, pick up in LA only.

It's got complete mugen kit, ssr type-x's, 6 point cage, cup suspension, hyper ground, etc...

reason being is that they come with the power roof and such that make the del sol a much nicer car that it is over here...i have a usdm 94 b16 model and id much rather have that power top and the other features you can get with the jdm model. but thats just me.

If you bothered to read other posts first then search for other posts, you might not get such a bad reaction. You can find JDM Honda's all over the States if you look hard enough. But why not just convert yours to JDM, everyone else is doing it

Just call around to local shops and ask around. There are a few shops down here that have JDM cars come in and out everyonce in a while. But if your doing it just for the power top, then just do the conversion. My friend did it for a total of $450 for the parts and he did the labor himself.

comeon guys, lets be easy on him. anyways, what is the reason you want that jdm? to have everything in the interior on the opposite, and be a bitch to drive sometimes? because you want the powered top? you can get a kit for that for $1200. trust me man, unless your planning on spending shiet loads of money for a del sol, your better off just buying a usdm and workin on it and getting it as jdm as you want. you'll be happier in the long run. but then again, its your decision.

ps..used the search feature

ive heard of a few places but they all turned out to be a flop.. seems like it would just add soooooooo much weight to the car.. not worth it to save 20 secs. worth of work i can do my self..

yeah i've heard of a lot of place but havn't actually seen one for sale. if not your not planning on running your car as in the 1/4, or 1/8 or doing auto-cross, and just want a decently quick car that pretty , get it. haha. otherwise, your better off without it and just having a quicker car. i've heard it puts on a lot of weight, but i still havn't heard of the exact curb weight and until i do, im still considering it if i have a lot of money to spare.
