nice job. its hard to find folks who provide detailed pics of this conversion. you should consider making a write up, maybe documenting where all the spot welds are. that helps. thanks!

Shmexy job on the RHD conversion sir  jdmeriffic even. But I noticed you mentioning more than one sr20 in your first post ^^ if ever any of those bad boys are for sale plz plz plz let me know. I live just west of DC and 295 is just at the top of 95 north (about 2-3 hrs from here) and I could def convince a friend to help me pick it up with a truck. I would also be interested in any 5 spd trannys you have (no not the kind ronaldo likes, the other kind of tranny) Xp

Yah ok i hate to brake it to u Julio your not that slick !! lmao thats why u ddidnt even leave my house tilll like 3 am and i woke your *** up at 12 seeing whats up ! fire works my *** .Well i got good weather to work with today but a late start heres some updates ...
heres all the brackets that didnt line up taken off.
the RHD brackets welded in (notice there blue only was able to use 2 USDM brackets the 2 white ones)
something i found intresting theres indents on the firewall from the factory spot welds should of been if it was made rhd from factory ! it helped to line up the bracket!
pic of the bottom part of the rhd column lined up with those indents !
heres the mock up of the climate control box's and the steering column to make sure it all lines up and what a mess to cut open a hole for the blower motor once again there verty braces in the way and the angle is diffrent on the opp side i got to figure out what im going do with it i have and idea hopefuly it works
and got to fill in the old blower motor opening ..

Im trying to lean towards a tru jdm look . and we all know some jdm things are far out of the normal for us all more reason for the gold.as for the color its called inca tiger eye pearl its allmost and exact color of the brembo brake gold . its a 2 stage paint sprayed from a gun .

Don't get me wrong, that paint is... fabulous - that's the only word that comes to mind. It's cool for sure. Don't mind me though, I'm told I have no style... by a guy who wants to do his interior in coach or something...  Just keep up the good work and I'm sure when all is said and done it will be bad ***.
