Zenki tails > kouki tails.

and I was thinking about the roof spoiler as well, it's just expensive as hell for that little thing. I won't do that till I tint my windows and paint my car black

I don't trust the fitment with the e-bay ones, even though they guarantee it.

[QUOTE=crazydrifter;375006][QUOTE=BlackZenki82;374975]the Japanese and Europeans turn left I'm sure, haha..

so i'm confused.... so, over seas, they only turn right? it's an international law that there will be no left hand turns? like left into a parking spot... or turn left into a gas station on the left side of the road.... wow.... you learn something new everyday.... yeah they turn left... jesus, are you guys even thinking about what you're typing? it's like saying LHD cars don't turn right, cause the steering wheel is on left.... odd...

i don't see how getting used to right hand drive would be much different than LHD... yeah, turning left would be weird for a while, but i'd be able to super scope the ladies while turning right....

It's just not worth it. There will be no advantage to having the steering wheel on the right hand side. It's a waste of money, and a waste of your time. It's not going to increase the value of the car, it's not going to make you drive better, it doesn't look better, and it's not easy to get used to.

actually i think someone mentioned this somewhere

the exhaust system is on the "left" side of the car, and the LHD cars are kinda "tilted" towards the left, on the other hand RHD cars are more "balanced"

i duno how legit that is...but seems to make sense to me

thats all suspension set up

also not saying you cant make left turns dude in other countries its fine cause they drive on the other side of the road.

ok listen lets say your at an inter section made for LHD Vehicles where we all drive on the Right side of the road here in the US. ok ok Lets say your at an intersection attempting a left turn there is another car infront on the other side of the intersection also making a left turn well since the road and rules were designed for LHD vehicles driving on the right side of the road you will be sitting on the left side of the car and will not be able to see oncoming traffic.

now might not be a big deal to you but to us normal drivers w/o exray vision we dont wana cause an accident and potentially kill someone and reck my car everytime i have to make a left turn

well guys, got another update, i got a JDM Nissan strut tower bar to replace my POS eBay unit... the ends were a bit rusty so i painted em flat black, the bar it's self is a bit worn and old... i mean come on, it survived a trip halfway around the world and is 12 years old... i guess it came of a Koukie Silvia K's but i could be wrong... question though, evn though it says "Nissan" on it, would it be considered a Nismo unit? or just OE?...

i also got a VC from my neighbor, and painted it with some left over caliper paint and polished the lettering, i think it looks pretty good and far better than my old, oil stained one...

and the photos!!
