ST205 RHD TO LHD, Conversion Options

[domyz]

I already have a 1994 rev 3 3sgte celica

But I would like to know if
it would be pain in the arshe to
- buy a cheap (9K$) st205 RHD
-buy a junkyard celica gt (1K$) LHD
and convert it to lhd with an used LHD celica (not mine ) ??

I think it would be an easy way to have a LHD AWD 6gen at a moderate price!

This question is because I don't know much about the LHD conversion of a car and looks like no member has done it before.
Is there any reason?

everything that is flipped between a LHD and RHD needs to be reversed. Firewall, wiring needs to go the other way, and rack and corresponding suspension (depends how you want to do it), MAYBE some hardlines even your dash, A/C, a lot of parts and everything inside that needs to be flipped. look at what you have and look at a LHD and see what needs to be reversed. Its a lot of work really.

I'd rather use a LHD too and then convert to a 3sgte. Going the other way around is tedious. its doable but its going to be based on your knowledge or someone else, money, labor, parts.
