what a stupid waste of money. WHY?!? JDM is really NOT that important or cool! Give that money to starving children or invest it for a future family.

you would have to change so much it would be easier and more cost effective to buy a JDM Integra and bring it here. Then you wouldn't have to do anything else to make it WAY JDM.

actually i talked to a few people who have it done and its not hard at all , basically, get the dash abd convert that over and switch the steering and pedles over. i was gonna do it in my R , i might still i talked to the dude from Prodrive, his buddy can get the parts for me for a decent price.

and all fot the "jdm" look.
but if youre set on it, i think the biggest problem you'll face is getting the dash. youll also need to move some of the stuff in the engine bay around, probably make new mounting holes for the steering assembly

my advice, do NOT do it... you're asking for trouble. Driving a RHD car on the right side of the road can be downright dangerous. Think about when you want to pass someone on a 2-lane road, or if you're in the center lane of an intersection trying to turn left. You will have a very difficult time seeing oncoming traffic if you're all the way over on the right side of the car. Think about it.

the parts are not hard to get at all , just have to know the right people . as far as the conversion goes it basically cutting off the usdm LHD front clip and welding on the jdm RHD front clip . ( cut off from the firewall forward and replace wth the RHD firewall , etc..) not really worth it . i guess it would be kewl at first but after awhile im sure it would get old .

I don't know, it would be cool, but I think the money could be better used someplace else.

Heres the plan,
Get over to Australia, Japan, or England to by a RT side steering interga. Spend money looking for it, lodging & food, travel expenses. get the car, ship it back, then go through a bunch of crap exporting back to the USA. Then find a DOT/EPA shop to make it legal to drive & by then you just spent way too much money on this project. If you want to waste some money I can help you with that gladly.

it being rhd isnt the reason they are hard to bring to the united states. . . ive seen plenty of rhd cars, it aint dangerous if you knwo how to drive.
you have a hard time seeing traffic when your riding with someone and your in the pass seat?. the toll booths and drive thrus is a down side, but **** id still do it .

get a jdm front end conversion or a nicely tuned turbo... wtf is wrong with u? ur going to be spending money to make ur car harder to drive, and how the hell are you going to shift with ur left hand? and besides.. not a lot of people are going to care.. ur car WAS an Acura and it will always BE an Acura... if u want it badly enough u'll sell ur car and to go japan and buy another integra and bring it over ..

IMO this is done right.
Waste of money? Not if you have it... Don't hate and don't deny its beauty
