Right-Hand Drive Conversion, How-To Options

[trader21]

How hard is this conversion? if i was to buy a WHOLE FRONT CLIP including engine, would it include a right hand drive conversion? also i wouldn't have to extend the wiring harness correct? i'd probably going to have to make new pedals for it huh? anything would help...this could be an interesting project for me

You need to swap out the firewall, steering rack (if you use the SS supension, otherwise you need to source a JDM mcpherson steering rack) and reroute the electrical wiring for your lights/turns/wipers etc. Also need te replace the Heater/blower unit with a RHD one. Pedals and such are 'universal' I believe. Just need to swap everything over from left -> right. But you need to make new brake and clutch lines.

A Dutch Celica owner (Bacertune) has converted a JDM GT4 into a LHD GT4. It isn't something for the feignthearted. He takes his time for it but he's already been on this project for about 2 years now. It's nearly done now. He can drive it, but needs final stuff done to it.
