I highly doubt it will ever come out - you will need to know how to fabricate to do a RHD conversion - basic cutting and welding - and if you know how to do all that a RHD conversion should be no problem at all.

All you have to do is cut out the LHD firewall - weld in the RHD firewall - and swap in all the RHD parts. Its pretty straight forward - its the work (labor) thats the hard part.

hey bro i was going over your auto to manual dvd and it doesnt really go into any details as far as transmission harness what needs to be hardwired to where? if there is no manual harness. Also where did you get all the bolts for the swap? i cant seem to find them anywhere and the person i bought the"complete swap" from didnt include them.

Well its wasnt a complete swap then.

Get them from someone on the forums - I am getting bolt kits together to sale myself but havent completed the bellhousing bolts yet - the rest you can get from my site.

The video does go into what to wire up - I used the auto tranny harness on the video and cut the 5th, netrual and reverse connctors off the 5 speed tranny harness - which insted of the 5 speed connectors you can just hardwire them.

If you have my DVD its chapters 46 - 57 that all have to do with wiring.

You can download the Chapter Layouts from my site as well - click on whatever DVD you got and on the top of the page there will be buttons you can choose from.

You might be confused somewhere?

Using the auto tranny harness you get to keep the Speed Sensor Connector, O2 Sensor Connector, the crank angle sensor sub harness connector (you can use the auto crank angle sensor too) and behind the fuse box - you get to use the wiring for the reverse sensor (but you have to get the connector off a 5 speed harness or just hardwire it).The only (2) left are the 5th position switch - which you dont hookup if you use a auto ECU and you dont have to use on a 5 speed either if you dont want. I go into all that in the video.And the the Neutral Position SwitchWhich they both run to the ECU and I go into that as well in the video.

I also go into wiring up the ASCD Clutch Cancel Switch in the video.

So I am not sure why you say it doesent go into detail abotu wiring the harness? Maybe you just skipped over the DVD and didnt watch it fully?

LMK if you need more help - thats why I am here doing this.

Yeah get rid of the 5 speed harnesses and use the auto ones - just get the needed connectors off the 5 speed tranny harness to put on the auto tranny harness and call it a day.

Does the SR20DET swap DVD also cover the removal of the KA24DE? Also does it cover the SR20DET wiring? Or do I need to purchase all 3 separately?

Thanks in advance!

I bought a couple of these DVDs recently (KA24DE teardown, and S13-14 suspension install,) and they are quite good. They are great for getting a visual on things I've only seen in text before. They also tell you specific bolt sizes for every step, as well as the proper removal/replacement orders and torque figures. The only suggestion I could make would be to have a separate step to show all the parts added and tools used, to make prep work a little easier. Otherwise, the videos are fantastic, and I will be getting more down the road.

A email would be better - I sometimes dont get a email that someone posted

I have no idea where your located - I ship Friday after payment is recived - and usually takes 5-7 business days.

I am not responsible for lost, returned or stolen mail - items are shipped via USPS First Class with no insurance or tracking - so after it leaves my hands I have no idea what goes on with it.

I will help as much as I can just LMK.

Thanks man!!! I know you guys probably hate me for such the very long delays but you would not belive the things I have been through in the past 2 years! I have actually started my SR20DET Motor Build Series but its behind too and I have alot of sponsors waiting for those!
As for the KA Part 4 the owner (my buddy) motor has been through quite alot himself and that why its been held up but we have been talking about firing it back up and finsh this thing finally! So keep your eye peeled this summer! I might even get my full SR series done s well as my turbo rebuild and maybe more!!! :P

I seen your videos on youtube great contributions to the community!

^I'm trying hard not to give what I learn from your video's online because I know you have a family to support. Hence why I've only really done some raw degreeing cams and a foolproof stock timing chain explanation. I actually want to see you do a 'how to use JWT cam gears' and 'how to degree cams vid, because yours will probably make more sense.
