Hey everyone, just looking to see if there's anyone out there who has done the 3SGTE swap and also converted to right hand drive. I'm just trying to find out some info before I start any real work. Thanks in advance,

Robert

You will need basicly a lot of thing - some of them - yes they are interchargible - but some are pure side specifics. if you search General Topics you will find a tread where I and BaceTuner discused whats needed fot RHD > LHD swap..

The easyest way would be to get basicly WHOLE cut of the front dash. The hardest part - Reweld the Firewall. You will need to remove your front window if you wanna make the job RIGHT. there is a way to not do this - but you will have to experimentate..

As for the WIRING - you CAN USE THE SAME wiring. its just what you will need to "Rotate it". All the fuseboxes all the plugs and etc will be in the same places if you do this right - but if you can get your self RHD wiring - then get it and avoid the hastle!


You will only need 2 of the brake lines to be extended (made new ones), they will go OFF the main cilinder to the ABS unit. You can use the existing brake cilinder.
