What's up everybody. My name is Andre but everyone calls me Chef. Came across this website on tapatalk actually and figured I'd sign up, it's pretty cool so far. I drive a 93 civic hatch that's converted RHD. I also have a 94 del sol vtec and just recently parted out and sold my turbo integra. Plans for the civic is to boost it. I been trying to turbo this thing for two years now but I keep backing out lol. I just want to get it "exactly" how I want it. Anyway on to the pics. Let me know what you think.

the RHD conversion is sick! I'm so jealous... I've been seriously considering doing it to my DC5 since no one does it.. but what a pain for that car.


Love the swap I bet that car is a lot of fun!

Great pictures, looks great. I think you should boost it :turbohug: Really wish I had a RHD car. Was thinking of doing a DD with a RHD Honda of some sort. Decisions....

Oh, and :welcome:

That's awesome, a RHD hatch! I'm jelly :giggle: How long did it take for you to get used to RHD?

Thanks for the comments everyone. I love the car and rhd wasn't that hard to get used to. I daylied the car for over a year before I went crazy on it. When you first get into the car you'll usually hit the windsheild wipers when your trying to use the turning signal and visa versa. You get used to it though lol.

How did you do the RHD conversion? How expensive was it, what were the hard parts, etc etc. I've always wanted to do a RHD swap. And the windshield wipers/lights are switched too?

I like my LHD rsx. I lost interest in it when watching someone try to drag race it. Way to difficult for me.
