Is there a way to change the car to right side and does anyone know how much it would cost to get it done or do it yourself

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Re: Left TO RIGHT
....import a japanese mx-3.
I've driven a number of right hand drive vehicles, they really aren't meant for our roads. I'd put up with it for the awesomeness factor of having a real jdm car, but I wouldn't spend thousands changing a lhd over to a rhd :p

Re: Left TO RIGHT
Wouldn't you need the RHD chassis?
Dash, steering setup...
Is the engine mounted flop ways too? tranny on passenger side? What would be interchangeable between them mechanically? Suspension and brakes?

That would be my idea...ElectricEnergy wrote:....import a japanese mx-3, or maybe you can find an importer to get you a front clip (basically everything from the A-pillars forward).

Re: Left TO RIGHT
Because the Eunos Presso was not a very popular car in Japan, although uncommon they are relatively cheap to import. I inquired last year about getting a 93' GS from an importer and was told that once found I could have it on the ground for $4000-5000 but it might take months for them to find one.
94' RS/GS/MS/CF Monster Turbo...coming soon.
93' GS SE, the Black Beast, the former love of my life...soon to be gutted and crushed.
94' GS, black on black, now in several small pieces...and one large crushed piece.
2007 Mazda3 GT Sport --- super fun
2004 Honda RC51 --- Lost forever to some theavin' bastard

Re: Left TO RIGHT
So many penis jokes, so little time.
This could be top 10 for forum stupidity. Personally, if I were to spend thousands of dolla dolla bills y'all... I would expect some sort of gain. Noobs and their pipe-dreams. For what you would have to spend, you would be able to put in a new suspension, engine, hookers and blow.. maybe more. You are just better off importing.

Check with local laws about importing etc. Make sure your ins. company thinks it's as good of an idea as you do.

Re: Left TO RIGHT
Tranny and engine is in the same position, incl. exhaust etc. Steering is different, brake cylinder is on the other side, seats, door panels, dashboard, light beams are incorrect, fog light is on the other side, wipers are "mirrored", and also firewall between engine and cabin is "mirrored". And so on.. Waste of time, effort and money. Buy RHD car or keep it LHD and save some money & invite your girlfriend or wife for a wonderful romantic weekend.

Re: Left TO RIGHT
Exactly. Basically what yo would need to do is buy an entire RHD drive Mx-3 and move all the parts over, but if that's the case, you already have the RHD Mx-3, just leave it as be.Steve_SK wrote:Buy RHD car or keep it LHD
Some places you can just the front clip of cars, maybe you could get one from an mx-3, but I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't much cheaper than an entire car.
