Send me the 10,000 dollars you'd spend on it and I'll send you a big mirror to hold up in front of your car and take pictures of. Everybody wins.

I've had two rhds and don't recommend it at all. It's not very safe and is a pain in many ways. You also have to shift left handed.
Trivia: the SCCA outlawed rhds (which is why I am no longer a member).

RHD is only cool if its an actual japanese car. That still doesnt change the fact that its a pita to drive sometimes. You get used to most aspects but I find that judging where curbs and things are on your left side is impossible lol.

not to mention the whole passing on the left thing goes for a shit when you are sitting on the right hand side of your car.....

It would be pretty cool to have a rhd ep, I think there's only one ep3 ctr stateside which is in Mass somewhere.A converted one wouldn't be the same...

Rhd conversions are for ricers unless you are making a mail truck or making a lhd car easier to drive in rhd markets

If you really want it go for it.. sure its a big waste of money, but if you got it spend it.

By the way.. is there an offical ricer list? maybe a thread that says "you might be a ricer if.." and can one ricer part be cancelled out by a legit part...? hummmm...

Lol, I forgot that I had a rhd postal truck so that makes three! That was a really fun truck, wish I still had it. Would have made a great camper.

For the record, having the two rhd cars didn't make me a ricer. They were Brit cars, one of the first Turbo Esprits (Essex Edition) and a '61 Austin Healey 100-6.
