right hand converison?

[gone_hog_wild]

how hard would it be to convert my 240 to right hand drive? i know what parts i need just was wonder if it would be worth the time and effort..

[SlipnSliden 240]

It cant be done. Never has never will.

[gone_hog_wild]

why is it not possiable? Im sure if you can make a civic rhd you can make a 240 rhd...

If you were capable of doing it, you wouldnt need to ask. Just because somthing can be done doesnt mean it should. Try searching next time.

[gone_hog_wild]

was not asking for smartass remarks just want to know if any one had done this and if so how hard was it...

Had you listened to me and searched, all your questions would have quickly been answered.

With time and money nearly anythings possible, including this.. Its pretty, haha, simple.. You get a full front clip from a RHD silvia outa japan and you weld the whole thing in. Swap out your dash, pedals, ect and bam, rhd 240sx.

Of course its probably the biggest waist of time ever, because RHD sucks(unless your a leftie maybe?) , but whatever floats your boat!

I guess the biggest question is WHY?.....just so you can have a car that's "M4D JDM 7IGH7, Y0!!!111one" ????? ...ridiculous...

[grmreapr]

my friend did it said it was the biggest pain in the a** ever and he would never do it again took him about four months to do it and why he did was he got bored (yeah he's crazy like that)

I have a thing for RHD. I'd love to drive my car RHD.

I converted my car to RHD years ago numb-nuts.

It was sarcasm, its not as simple as you make it out to be. It does take some time, and logic.

[480sx]

Im supposed to pick up your sarcasm through the internet how, 'Numb Nuts'? Who the fk uses sarcasm on forums, you should know better. Like i know that you coverted to RHD instead of getting a RHD car imported. Get real

[SlipnSliden 240]

I have a whole build thread on here where I have mentioned it was converted. If time was spent reading and not making ill logic post then maybe one could receive some knowledge.

When one reads the object is to comprehend the words left to right, top to bottom. Once one does that maybe one could pick lots of the sarcasm passed around forums.

I caught the sarcasm immediately, I thought it was rather obvious.

You should really look up the definition of logic, your use of the word is kinda funny. It seems that you think if you say the word logic, it makes you look intelligent. However this is not the case.

Lets say that i dont spend all my time on Nico, reading through each forums minutia. How then am i supposed to pick up on your sarcasm, since 98 percent of the people on this website have no idea who you are, where you come from, and what you have done with your car?

Also, who the **** cares that i didnt pick up your sarcasm in the first place other than you? If you had made a post that was intended to help the OP, (kinda like i did) instead of being a jackass, maybe we wouldnt be having this conversation.

No, u still would

To the OP: Ignore all the e-badas*es on here, dont sweat it. RHD conversions are very possible (obviously). They are not cheap, they are not easy, they are not fun, and they are absolutely not safe. Safety is the biggest concern, in my opinion. F*cking with the firewall (which is meant to save you from being crushed) is not smart. Unless your car is going to be a b*tchin show car thats never driven, I wouldn't do it.

When you mess with the firewall (cutting and rewelding and such) it loses alot of structural integrity and becomes much less rigid. In a head-on collision (which do happen, believe it or not) it can be very very dangerous, it might not hold up (welds breaking if not done absolutely perfectly).

Cliff-Notes: Very dangerous, DEFINITELY not worth the time, cost, and absolutely not worth the risk.

100% flame free post for you

You can do it, it has been done.

You said you have all the parts you need, so I won't outline those, as far as time, if you do it your self, your car will be down at least a month, working on it 16 hours a weekend, taking the time to do it right, then trouble shooting errors.

I can see why you would do it; I wanted to do it to make the car more unique, different, and the idea of cops walking to the wrong window is still funny to me TO THIS DAY.

With that said, I hope you are very good at welding. You have to cut that firewall out, and put the JDM fire wall in, wich is not easy from what I am told.

A more expensive, but less extensive way would be to do a fly by wire setup, and at that point, I'd stick the steering wheel in the middle lol

BTW everyone is right though, a couple of well worded searches would have saved you a lot of frustration.

I learned to drive on a stick on a RHD car. If you live in the united states you won't be able to see around people to pass them which is dangerous, and you won't be able to do drive through food. If you are a postal worker however, go for it.

[IanS]

You can do drive through, just make sure you always have a passenger with.
