BTW good luck with the right hand drive conversion, do you think you only have to swap out your dash and a stiring rack? Dude open up your hood and take a good look at your fire wall, do you see what i see? you can't do it, you also have to change your whole firewall, and you know how much time and money that will take it's easyer just to import and legalize another civic then turn yours into "JDM"...

ok.. look at your car as it is right now, LHD. see that fire wall. see the lip that runs from one side to another. and then it has a hump for the brake boost. do u see that on the other side? do u see the mounting bolts?

ummmmm....... the only thing you'll really be able to bolt up would be the complete engine swap, headlights, fenders, bumper etc., no, it's not a "bolt up" process to convert your car to rhd, i don't care who told you it is, it isn't :P

yeah, for the money you would have spent on a clip and having it shipped, and the engine installed, etc., etc., you can build a mean *** turbo setup for less than half of what you would have spent and make a lot more power......
