As far as the rhd you can do it rationally guys....There are 5 or 6 cars i knowof withing 30 minutes of me all hondas but rhd. Hell there are even 2 skylines in memphis tn which is 1 1/2 hours.

2 nissan trucks close by that are rhd so before anyone acts like its some dumb fantasy rethink it

just my 2 cents...

no'one said it was a dumb fantasy....we said it was a waste of money for an economy car.

roddimus prime, i think your avatar sais it all... if someone wants a RHD conversion, by all means; go do it. its what makes something unique in the U.S. im considering doing it to my RX7. all thats left besides wanting to is money. it costs a lot of dough to do this to a 91 rx7 and i cant imagine for an 03 protege 5. labor is where it kills you. but the money could go into better places than changing where you sit driving your car with the same power, braking, suspension, etc. ive realized that im going to just put it on the backburner until im rich.

You wanted the price? Here it is: For the price of converting your car to RHD and having everything work and look as it should, you can get ANOTHER 2003 Protege5.

He's pouting now that no'one thinks it's a worthwhile job?? What a sissy.

How much would it cost to convert the car to RHD? It may be cheaper to just buy a Used Sport20 and import it over. While you're at it get the AWD version that everyone says they're going to build but never do then convert it to a 20B and make it RWD since you don't mind sinking $20K into a compact econo-cruiser.

It's like reconfiguring the wiring in a keyboard so that the keys are in alphabetical order instead of the QWERTY arrangement. Or maybe to have your name as the home row!
