The engine is great! Idles smoothly, everything seems to be perfect! Still needs a full exhaust, front mount and a boost controller to get it running a little stronger. Then ill be working on the suspension a bit.

The point of a rhd conversion is to separate my car from most others! Its a unique modification and i get lots of people who think its sick.

^ Plus the added benefit of not frying your master cylinder. Nice build man. What other plans for the interior?

Nice work so far man. Definitely going in the right direction.

great... so what you pussies are telling me is:
- you like to get out of your car when going through a drive-THROUGH
- if you had the money, you'de spend it on useless shit
- you fail to understand thermal management
- you like to do things that most normal human beings do not do for valid reasons. instead, you consider them rare and unique.

next time i talk to my postman, i will ask him how he enjoys his RHD mail truck... and how cool and unique it is.

good to see that folks on zilvia havent lost their retarded edge

Don't hate because you can't afford shit like this. I'm not saying it's a functional mod but a fun one. I'm not particularly worried about drive thoughs because unlike you I'll have a friend in my passenger seat! Why don't you keep your negative thoughts to yourself because it's clear no one here wants to hear them! Why don't you get out of my thread!

but gotta quick question, when you cut the firewall out did the car bow due to the lack of support or did you brace the body before you cut it??

thinking about doing something along the same lines but wana be prepaered.


thanks

Cool shit bro... Way to be unique. As for the whole RHD thing, you get used to it after a while. Personally I feel a shit tonne safer in my R32 than I did in the three of my S13s. People at drive thrus generally have interac terminals on extended cords, and only real problem is left turns/bank drive thrus.

On another note, can't wait to see this thing done!

When we cut the firewall the car kept the same structure. It didn't bow at all! It was on a lift though don't know if that would make a difference. What are you thinking of doing??
