Default How hard would it be to switch right hdan drive to left?

Because i know a bunch of people in japan and they said that there going to get me a type R and take the engine out. Then send it at different times and then put it back to gether over here. But the only thingis that i would like to change the drive side. If you could tell me if its possible and how much work/time/money it would cost.

Thanx
Kirk

Wait...wait. People are sending you a RHD car piece by piece and you plan to put it together and make it LHD?....WHY? Just buy a USDM ITR.

besides driving a rhd you would have to go through a drive through backwards.. or have a passenger in the side do you can get ur meal and cash from the bank..the only good thing would be checking your mail.

i personally like the usdm over jdm. why? because jdm is overated. i dont think its that big of a deal to have jdm front end on a usdm car.. id rather buy a whole jdm car than just to buy a conversion.

I asgree with MolecularIntegra why not just buy the USDM type r that is already LHD and get the jdm frt end conversion with the money you save?
