right hand drive WTF is that, are you talking about rear wheel drive??? and no it would not be a good idea cause its not good for your t-case to just convert your power to the rear wheels...you will most likly break somthing!!!

nevermind, i figured it out, why the fuck would you want to do that???

Right hand drive=Bad idea!
It's definitely not worth the money. You're better off just selling your car(to me for example) and then saving more money and getting one imported from Japan.

Have you ever driven a right hand drive?
shifting with your left hand is no fun, well i guess you'll get use to it

i'm right handed, so i prefer shiftin with my right hand

some people try too hard to be "different"

Re: Right hand Drive

i'm just saying, all together, it would be cheaper to do that than to make a right hand drive eclipse. Fto is basically japan's Eclipse with completely different engines, and right hand drive. I guess the best way to put it is... "The Fto is to the Gto AS the Eclipse is to the 3000GT...". So, anyways, buying an Fto from Japan, getting it imported to Japan, would probably be cheaper then tearing your dash apart, your engine bay, and firewall, cutting new holes for the steering wheel in the firewall, customizing a new dash, and umm... dealing with the millions of problems your gonna have in that engine bay. Plus, you'll get to keep your sanity if you just get the Fto...
