There are 100,000s of rhd Lancers in the world. The OP isn't doing anything special by adding one more and he's doing so at great cost and effort. Again, it is his money and he can **** it away any way he chooses.

Typically, the people that do these things live at home with Mommy and Daddy and have no real understanding or appreciation for money. They lack the maturity to really appreciate what it means to earn a living and support themselves and that's why they waste their money on something so frivolous.

Can you honestly not find anything better to do with your money?
like i said it was just a thought, and just to let you know im a big boy who is very well off and i live in my own place and is paying for a wedding so i suggest you think before you type little boy. i work very hard for my money and family so you need to grow up my friend. i didnt want an evo b/c i dont feel like wasting all my money on the insurance so sorry if i want to try something that doesnt meet your approval

like i said in my first post, i knew i was gonna get flamed for this .

Well I'll be honest, I think its a waste of money, but moreso I think it'd definitely make your car unique.
If you have the time, and money and dedication to get this done i back you fully on it. I would love to see a USDM car RHD... I love RHD cars. It will probably be a long project, I wouldn't try anything until you get all the parts in and do it all at once though. Good luck and def make a progress thread. I'm also really buzzed right now so don'tm ind my spelling errors. Go for it if you want. I think it'd be cool to see.

So you're a big boy and you make your own money and you really thought this was a good idea? How old are you? You sound like a little kid with no idea of the value of money. The fact that you would consider pissing it away to add another RHD Lancer to what I would guess is more than a million already out there only goes to prove my point. I could understand you wanting to turbo or super charge your car to improve performance.

Yea, you're really well off. I get it, don't waste money on insurance for an EVO, but **** it away converting a Lancer to RHD. I never suggested you buy an EVO, only that you not **** away your money. However, as I stated originally, it's your money and you can **** it away any way you choose.

BTW, I'm 39 and I'm sure the readers of this thread have no trouble figuring out who the mature one is and it has nothing to do with age.

If he wants to go RHD, fair enough - thats his choice.

But if you were my friend and asked me, well, i'd tell you not to do it. RHD just to be unique. That's alot of money wasted if you ask me.

Drop in a turbo/supercharger or something, but then again that's where I'd put the funds. I'm in Sydney, Aus - I have a RHD RA, and wouldn't think about going LHD to just to be unique.

it'll be cheaper to just import an old RHD car that is probably faster..

for the tenth time IT WAS JUST A THOUGHT, i really have no clue how much it would cost and i had no plans of doing it if it was gonna cost me an arm and a leg. ive seen honda guys do it and i know the parts werent that costly but then again they are hondas. i didnt start this thread to argue with you ppl i simply put an idea out there to see if it would work. like i said im not losing anything in the end.
