My guess would be a lot more expensive/work then just to sell yours and buy one from japan then ship it to cali fly there and pick it up

Its a stupid simple swap. It can be done for about 6k for parts and labor.

i guess its simple if you are an excellent welder, have a jig for an s2000, and feel comfortable cutting the front clip off your car and welding the RHD one one. Then installing the engine and all accesories, plus suspension parts. Not me.

You don't necessarily have to cut off your front clip and weld on a JDM one. Hardest part is banging out and shaping the firewall. Other than that if you have the right interior pieces and linkages just swap it out. You might have to relocate a couple things in the engine compartment too. Ive never done it to an S2000 but its a common conversions in integras.
