By No, you mean that it will still be left hand drive?

yes it can be left hand drive. in fact i haven't heard of anyone making it right hand drive and if anyone has they did it for other reasons. read the stickey at the top which says what is needed to swap rb25.

the part on the downpipe has to do with LHD...the downpipe might need to be custom (depending on mount location) to clear steering column for a LHD setup

look at other people's engine bay pics...see any obvious signs of LHD? u should.

Short answer; no, it does not need to be converted to right-hand-drive. Thread closed.
