I think you're talking about making a hole to relocate the steering column or what not, I think it is possible but its a big hassle. RHD conversion are a bit pricey and takes a good amount of time to complete but hey if thats what the man wants then go for it.

Ok you can get a rhd front clip off hmotorsonline for around 500 bucks, You need to make sure it comes with brake and clutch cylinder and the steering rack

Other than that all you need is the fire wall and the dash the fender wells and everthing from there up is the same.

If you get the front clip it can be done for around 2500 to 3000 or at least thats what I would charge to do it thats if you supply the parts. If anyone try to charge you more then that its a rip off.

no not swapping the motor, b/c i heard the gsr motors like boost more than the itr (this is still negotiable though) but i wanted to do the rhd swap and then do the itr front end next

Hi, i live in knoxville and there is this company called Racing Innovations that can get RHD cars for japan for around 6-10k. THE WHOLE CAR. You can get clips and what you have to do is drill out all of the spot welds in the firewall (from the clip and the donor car) then switch them and weld them back together. Then just transfer the motor and everything else. Its not that hard, BUT DO NOT CUT the front end off, that will make your car weak. All you need is the firewall. Racing innovations number is 865-927-7333 if you have any questions. They can also get it registered here in tennessee, maybe in atlanta also i dont know.
