out of curiosity, why bother?

is it because you work as a mailman and you are used to driving on that side of the car, or do you just want to be as JDM as possible?

I would say $5000-$10000?There is so much work involved that I think that kind of money would be better spent elsewhere.Looks are not going to make your car faster. If you really want RHD why not try to get a RHD EVO. I know your really don't see any JDM EVO's in the states but I think it would be a smarter move to just get a real JDM EVO if you can find one.

i believe he is trying to get a "REAL" JDM EVO..hes just asking how much to import it..i doubt theres many JDM Evo's here in the U.S. I know of one here in Cali who has a JDM LY EVO IX..its sickk as hell but i don't know how much he payed for it.

Ah ha. I should of read a little further into the question. Well if you are looking for a whole car I would say at least $25,000 plus you have to get the car shipped to the US and than there is the problem with getting the car registered. Im sure getting a RHD car registered is possible but it is going to cost I would say at least $10,000 or more.

Why want right hand drive? There is no advantage to that, but to look different. The only real reason to get a JDM Evo 8 MR is for it's S-AYC.
