Hmmm you would think that most people would want a RHD 240sx... expecially considering its got a full S13 front clip on it which makes it worth even more.

true JDM S13 parts sell for a bundle o dough... now with an S13 front clip done up right including the RHD conversion, and an SR20DET swap ( if its a red top JDM ) in a 240sx... most people would give their left nut for that car. Its the closest you will get to a true S13 silvia in the states without going through the trouble of lisencing it and what not.

as out there said, it maybe worth more, but remember demand. not many normal people are gonna buy a rhd vehicle just because it is that, and a lot of performance guys aren't gonna buy it because they are use to shifting with their right hand. so the only people that are gonna buy it are ricers and people into the jdm rhd stuff. so you have to find someone to dish out the cash for that. good luck around here.

well, as ironic as this will sound, the only people that would be willing to pay what the converted 240 is worth, are the fools (ricers) or the wise (people that know what kind of work went into it)

I also have a pretty nice shop with lots of stuff like hoist and airtools. I would love to do the RHD swap but if i get the clip and everythings all cracked and nasty beyond repair to much $$$ to be spend. The JDM gauge cluster alone to by goes for easily over $200 and dont want to know about dash and heater stuff

If you know what you are doing, it wont take long....but if you are a first timer without help, itll be some time, Im expecting a few weeks on a garage at home on the floor with hand tools without much help. Get someone with experience with working on cars everyday to help. Itll go by much quicker.

and my opinion, do it!!!....i wish I could afford a clip for mine, Id do it in a heartbeat.

Its not illegal to have a rhd car, but if u live in a state where u probably shouldnt have a swap and no cats...your RHD car is going to attract more attention.

got to get the stuff and find out exatctly how hard it would be to go to RHD and then see if that is worth what i could sell it for. don't know how much trouble with the cops i want to be in cause i want to still drive my 240 on the street

how else is he gonna get the front clip to stay on the car?

people buy front clips to make sure they get all the parts for the swap, they dont actually saw off parts of your car and weld others to them.

its going to cost my probably 12-14k for my swap, cuz i need a STi Version VI front clip and those are still around 8-10k depending on miles
