Welcome to the forums . . .but . . .why convert to RHD, there's no benefit, only detriment . . .to your wallet. Not to mention the sheer inconvenience of driving a RHD car in a LHD country.

Not a smart idea at all.

Haha, you have to go through drive-thrus backwards, ballet parking is not an option. Plus driving someone else's LHD car after being used to RHD would be a mess. I thought about doing it but thinking is as far as I got.

1. You're in Japan so RHD to LHD is not a problem because you get daily exposure to both.

2. You're an experienced driver with track time so "CAR CONTROL" isn't a huge factor to you.

3. You're not converting a car just to say you did it. No money, no fuss no muss.



This guy doesn't know how to properly control a LHD car so RHD is out of the question in LHD traffic and he's setting himself up for failure with monitary issues abound.

The sheer thought of converting a perfectly fine LHD car to RHD just because it's JDM is retarded at best.
