I just got my ca18 front clip yesterday and at first I was just going to do a swap and call it good but now Im more interested in doing a RHD conversion. The only thing is Im missing the clip didn't come with a steering rack or column or dash for that matter. Im wondering if I need to buy extra parts or if the stock steering rack from my LHD 240 will work. I would very much appreciate it if some one could point me in the right direction.

just look in the classifieds section on here and/or post a wanted ad. I'm sure a lot of people have those parts left over. I can't imagine any way that your lhd rack could ever possibly work, so....

I also have a rack, dash & everything you might need, but from the UK shipping would take the piss.

I kind of have to be out of my garage in august so i dont have a whole lot of time. I'm thinking of just putting the motor in now as is and doing the rhd conversion later in the winter after i move. That will give me some time to get some money and collect the parts i need.
