1989 240sx se, came from VA, SUPER CLEAN CAR. Had a spun rod when I bought it. I stripped it down and starting rebuilding it and than decided to go in a different direction. Bought a JDM front clip for the sheet metal and welded the right hand drive into it. I got the JDM 180sx taillights, power folding mirrors, and I am currently waiting to get the JDM e-brake handle since it mounts different and I can weld that into place. I gotta change the rear side windows and rear end. Now comes the fun part the wiring. I am still waiting to get another front clip. Like any other project it just takes time and MONEY. But since I did all the welding and such myself it saved me alot of money. I changed all 3 panels, firewall, wiper cowl and fresh air return panel. Everyone who sees it in person says it looks factory. Here are a few pics on my comp, have a whole series step by step by I got to resize them all. Hope you guys like it and dont BASH it.![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/180sx](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/180sx) rhd.bmp]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/180sx](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/180sx) rhd.bmp) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/180sx](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/180sx) rhd2.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/180sx](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/180sx) rhd2.jpg) ---
