just curious how hard it would be to convert a usdm to rhd with a front clip to supply parts. i was looking around on the net and i came across a good looking front clip from a jdm wrx gc8 model with dash steering colum,wheel etc all inplace and looked to be in good shape. then i found a gc8 for around 3k for sale up north. the clip was about 4k or so. 7k worth it for rhd gc8?? (engine and trans in clip also along with everything else.) i would also be doing all the labor myself. whatcha think?

if you are looking for a gc8 front clip i work for a guy that imports clips and we currently have one in the shop. we have the whole front half of the car. all body parts such as bumper grille fenders headlights and hood and fog lights in bumper it is the complete halfcut it sells for 2,500 if you are intrested call doug at 253 565 9823

to do it your self it is kind of hard there is a guy in tacoma that does it for about 1500 dollars if you supply the halfcut

thanks for the info but i was just curious about it. i wasnt planning on doing it anytime soon. maybe a project later down the road. aslong as you get a good front clip and the chassis are relativly the same it sho8uldnt take that much fab work. either way im going to get a gc8 later down the road rhd or not

man i have one only its a brighton 2 dr.
its awesome.
not really that hard.
if some one wants it done ill beat that 1500 and do it for a 1000 if you supply the clip.
me and my friend could knock it out in a little more than a weekend.
