Nice! I love the way your exhaust looks.

&& Did you do all this yourself? (The RHD conversion)

DRIFT CAR

Seems a bit silly to do a sweet conversion and keep S13 alloys and stock everything.

I don't get the whole rhd conversion deal, but everyone has their own taste. I do wonder how the driving experience is. Was it easy for you to convert to driving a rhd? Did it feel natural or a little weird?

I drove a RHD S13 Hatch, only weird thing was shifting into fifth almost popped it back into 3rd because I didn't pull towards myself enough. It was pretty cool experience. Taking hard turns or drifting I could imagine would be super akward tho.
