Question Anybody converted an Evo 9 to RHD?

Has anyone done this or know of it having been done? Is it a swap for standard RHD Mitsi parts or do you have to start cutting the firewall apart?

Thanks in advance.

No, I'm from the UK and was thinking about taking my Evo back with me when I go home. It would be cheaper to get it swaped here than there, but probably easier yet to sell it and buy another one there despite the rip off prices we have to pay for everything in the UK

I'd like to have RHD here actually, I don't use drive thru's and changing gear with the wrong hand sucks should have bought an R32 Skyline or a TVR Cerbera with me

Dude if you live in the UK, sell the USDM evo, its a piece of **** compared to what you can buy in the UK! Why bother?! In the UK they have skylines, JDM Evo's (with AYC + ACD) and everything else that is totally badass. USDM really isn't even worth bringing back over with you. Just sell it =)

Can you say GHETTO? You drive off the road trying to see if the needle is just above the E or right on it.

lol evo6, I'm sure he means with the actual rhd dash and appropriate changes, the only real concern is swapping the location of the clutch and brake mastercyl but if you look closely our evo's are set up for either r or L hand drive

Enh, even Top Gear said they thought Mitsu went a little too far.
