Just wondering what you guys think would be the easiest/less expensive way to go if you wanted to get a Lhd Gt4 and lived in America.
Cause that's pretty much what I'm thinking about. I have a Usdm Gts. If you go with a full Gt to Gt4 conversion, it would be a a total f**k with the insurance company IF you could insure it. If you buy a euro Gt4, it would be very expensive to ship it and risky to buy a car you've never seen and also dangerous to receive it damaged through the shipping. So I believe the best way would be to buy a Jdm and go Lhd. I'd like to fully insure it and that's going to be a pita, but that's another story. What are your thoughts?

Old guy is going to chime in.. Buy one already there and get a firewall cut and do conversion. Been done in Europe many times by Doggy and others.
Could buy a LHD one in Europe but they are not cheap as they are in Canada..They are rare even in Europe.. I thought about this a lot and my St205 and decided to keep it RHD to keep it original. I have no problem with RHD but my car will never be a daily driver so that was factored in. If you strip down car and clip and take to shop i am sure can get firewall welded in and painted for under 2000 and you rebuild rest.If you want a shop to convert and do all of work then cost will go way up with labor hours..
