Just wondering if it is practicle to actually take a front end clip of a prelude and have it welded to my existing frame? This way I could minimize any wiring and any other trouble shooting that might occur. If I do this is it goinging to leave the rest of the car and the frame to weak? Should I just forget this idea and go all out and buy a right-hand drive prelude sir? Thanks for your info.

yeah that wouldn't work too well.

 

Sorry, cars are not like legos. Only way to get RHD is to chop up your firewall and get custom steering fabbed up, or import what you need. RHD is a waste of time and money, and is just a novelty. Take that money and put it into something useful.

 

Matt are you trying to just do a swap or go RHD? If it's to go RHD I'd just buy the whole car from JDM land via an importer.

 

I just wanted to know if It could be done-simply welding on a front end clip, as it would possibly end up cheaper that way. I should have remebered that If I really want to do it right then I can't take any short cuts. Your right Kris; I should just wait and save for one from an importer (which I found for around 8k recently), it's just that there will be practically no way to insure/register it.

Just Email me when you get it all done... So I can drive up to Madison and slap you
