That might be a scam, but a couple of friends worked with Skyline Motors a while back. Not sure if they're still in business, but they were in the busness of converting to LHD, and Motorex still mentions them on their site as a source for conversions. They use fiberglass molds for the dash, if I remember correclty.

These pics are from RB Motoring's site:

One would think there might be a longer description, espcially because the car being sold is a Skyline. I wouldn't trust that fool with my snot rags let alone bid on his nonexistent (most likely) car.

If I had a skyline I would LHD convert it just to cause controversy and mistery questions like this.

Interior pic was taken outside, exterior pics are taken inside.

This car = scam

......although it looks hot

::Edit::

I think that interior pic is an 02' Nissan Spec-V, but i'm not 100% sure

Ummm...Don't think so.



Looks like GT-R dash with conversion pieces for LHD. Seats are GT-R, but look like R32/33's.

On most modern cars the key hole is on the right side, right? In the interior pic it is on the right while being LHD. If it were really a RHD pic reversed the keys would be on the other side.

**** i have no clue.. but its up to 20k and thats **** raping cheap for a skyline period.. especially that year.. so something is going on.. it probably has a damn nuke inside it and they'll blow it once its near somethign importiant.. hehe just kidddin

im thinkin its legit.. ive seen quite a few photos of LHD r33s in Dubai/UAE.. and ive seen a few pics of an R34 converted to LHD...
























damn, and theres more pics of a yellow LHD R33 with 1000 hp.. i cant find em though, all i remember is that it had a top secret body kit, and was tuned by future motor sports, or something like that..
