RHD 240sx Roll Call

[OpeLok]

So I've been noticing more and more converted cars on the forums. So curiousity got the best of me and so I started this thread. Please post pics of your conversion and when you completed it... I'll start off

Phx, AZ RB20DET







I elected to have no a/c or heat. RHD conversion was completed 2-21-04

how did you recocate your e-brake? you did a good job on the conversion

[ILikeMy240sx]

wow that looks amazing. Very clean and nice.

[95nismo240]

dam, must have been very time consuming

[PantherRacer]

how about a how to guide eh? maybe I could actually buy a 240 that's here already instead of importing a 180 one time....hmmmm. probbably not, but a guide would be nice for my 240 driving friends...

Is there any particular advantage to this? Or is it just to be super JDM?

[vvaffle]

Wow, nice stuff man. Usually I'm not a fan of doing stuff just to be JDM, but to convert a car to RHD, that had to take alot of time and money. Did you do it yourself or pay somebody to do it? Shifting with the left hand though, I don't think I could do it. And as far as the RB20 is concerned, I've thought about using one of them. Can we get some estimated prices and numbers?

Did you do it yourself or pay somebody to do it?

My boss and I did it. I work for a local performance shop, and for that reason alone, I can not divulge how we did it only for the fact that we can be sued over something like that. If it was just me myself and I that did it, I'd tell you all day long. Perhaps some of the other members that have done it can chime in here...

Here's another one that we did with A/C and heat....

As I understand it touching the firewall is a nono as far as the government is concerned but who cares about that? I am going to hit the junkyards when I visit the states next time and cut the firewall out of a U.S.-spec RX7 to convert my FC to LHD.

[Stev0n]

I'm slowing saving up to start completely over again, but instead of just getting a CA this time, I'm gonna get the whole CA front clip - easy RHD. cut my car in half/weld on s13 front (not that simple, but just making it short). Hopefully will be done by the end of summer.

This isn't my car, but its a RHD converted 240.

so, is it fun backing through drive-throughs?

[Stev0n]

I love doin that in my friends MINI... Back into Sonic's drive-in

Of course, there's always Rally's/Checker's for those who have them in their town... made for RHD!!!! hells yeah!

I saw a girl in an R33 back thru a mcdonalds drive-thru once in atlanta, it was funny as hell!

[GT Ranma]

A gir? >.<! Was she hot? Did you marry her??OMFG, I met this one girl who was going to College for a merchanical degree, her dream was to modify cars for a living ; ; I was in love/~

*cough* Anywho, back on subject.

When you did the engine swap did you guys modify the Wireing harness yourself? I would like to know how hard that is ^^ I'm the Electrition, so I'm the one who's going to have to deal with it :P

What color was the R33? I wonder if I've seen it around. I know there is a midnight purple R33 and a moroon R33 around town that I've seen.

[nsrZ32]

very clean conversion

[Stev0n]

it was a silver R33, i think it had GA plates, but she might have just been in town for Nopi Nationals...

Oh, BTW when i said Atl, i meant the greater ATL area (i.e. Locust Grove)

[carofchoice]

working on mine now.
