no experience what so ever that is why i told him to buy a car that is right hand drive already.

cause if you think logically you would have to have a whole RHD dash with harness then have a jdm engine so you could plug up your motor right due to swithching the side the plugs are on also you would need a whole new rack and pinion for rhd.

and those are just logical things i could only begin to image what problems you would run into on the fire wall have to relocate the battery the clutch master cylinder and the brake master cylinder. your a/c lines if thats something you want to keep etc etc etc.

so just think logically and you can think of what you would have to do.

Do you know what you are talking about? Bro', something like that is purely pointless. To do it correctly would cost you a lot of damned money and a lot of pointless work. You could get a front clip, then cut your car in half and re-weld on the new frame/sub-frame. It'd be faster, easy, and probably cheaper to get a RHD car from Japan.
