Alright caught red handed, actually I don't brag about stuff on my car but the occasional mentioning doesn't hurt anyone....

 

After driving my car back from Miami, it was a piece of cake.

I saw your car in the posted Atlanta Integra Type-R meet, the car looks great....we have a lot in common!

My R is a silver 96 4 door as well, but I'm determining if I should paint the car again?

 

It takes like 10 min. max to get used to. Shifting is a breeze and steering is simple. Only thing I would forget every once in a while was the signal thing oh and maybe might catch your self drifting into the left lane, but thats just takes some getting used to. Not really much to help you out with. Just go drive and get used to it.

 

My fiancee has a RHD EG and he can switch back and forth between RHD and LHD with no problem. I drove his car once. It took me all of the distance from the house to the gate and up to the stop light to get the hang of it. I have a hard time with the healights and the windshield wiper, though

That sounds too good to be true, can't wait til the project is finished....

 

"Driving" is no problem. Anyone could just hop in and shift with the left hand around town.

But be careful when you are driving hard tho, make sure you don't mis-shift. And most likely your feet would be faster than your left hand so there's a higher possibility of grinding the gears.

driving right hand or left hand is the same...at least that's what I experienced before...for 21 years driving on the right hand side, and as soon as I arrive in US, I just started to learn and get the idea of driving in a reverse side.

 

As others stated, it is a breeze. Just get in and do it, don't think about it really. Of course I am very used to it, being in Japan for almost the last 11 years, I actually felt more comfortable driving on the "right" side and not the wrong!
