RHD swap writeup.

[ghalee30]

i was always interested in doing this swap.. but didnt want to run the rod for the brakes.
do you feel a difference in pedal pressure ?
where did you get all your rhd stuff from? im thinking of importing the front half of an e30 haha

Yes and no. You can have a LHD car but it has to be over 25 years old and registered as a classic. Classic registration has some pretty stringent requirements. Like needing to have another registered daily and you're only allowed to drive it 90 log booked day out of the year etc.

Over 30 yrs in NSW. Then you can just register normally.

not really. the setup looks flimsy, but once you really see it its pretty solid. definitely solid enough for daily driving.

I ordered everything from sskoda, great seller. packs stuff correctly, and ships it incredibly fast. Ireland to LA in a few days.

and yeah thats what all the Honda guys do. thats easier if you know of a way of getting the clip. I didn't, thats why I just got theindividual parts from sskoda.

good luck man!

May I ask why you would convert a E30 in the USA to RHD?

For the public record i fully back this DIY. I myself have very high ambitions of building someday a "Kanjo inspired e30". :finger:

yeah it was a pita, but because of the Japanese theme I'm doing with my car, it was something I really wanted to do. not only that, but I wanted to challenge myself. coming from no professional experience like most guys here, its always fun to keep yourself on your toes and see what projects you're capable of tackling by yourself.

you Australian guys are really giving me a hard time about this:ST1G:

Because we know how much of a PITA RHD is an E30 and are familiar with the hassle it is to convert them.
