Default Conversion to RIGHT HAND DRIVE

Hey everyone,

Im exporting my '03 S2K to India and I for some apparent reason they only permit RHD vehicles and Left Hand Drive vehicles are banned. Strange. In anycase, I was wondering if anyone could suggest where I can get a conversion done? If anyone has any suggestions on the pro's n con's of getting such a thing done let me know..

thanks...

Yea, factory in Japan.

What are you nuts? Asking a question like that.

Ask Albert at SpeedStar, he likes a good laugh.

i imagine it would be pretty expensive to ship a car that far (on top of having it converted to rhd). wouldn't it just be easier and cheaper to buy something comparable there?

Thanks guys... unfortunately i had to search long and hard to find an '03 S2K in the condition that mine is in.. and i just bought it like 1 month ago and it tears me apart to sell it again to buy another car...

ofcourse most reasonable thing to do would be to sell it here and buy one from Japan.. Its pretty gay that they wont permit a LHD in India. Wanted to know for the heck of it to see if someone in the GTA could do this swap over from LHD to RHD...
