LHD Skyline

No kidding. I was watching an episode of Dream Car Garage on the Speed Channel this weekend, and their 'modern dream car' was an R33.

And it was LHD.

This company in Santa Ana, CA converts them. Their website will be at www.skylineracing.com, but right now it's nothing but a front-end.

I can only imagine what this costs for a 'base' Skyline. But beyond that, the company also offers engine tune packages that rate 400, 700 and even 1000HP. These are street and smog legal cars.

Sweeeeet... <G>

Theres another company with the website www.skylinegtr.com that converts them. They're pricey, but not unreasonable.

Yeah, but what I thought was really cool about this other place was that they convert the Skylines to LHD. All of Motorex's Skylines are still RHD.

Of course, I'm sure you pay for it.

I think I'd want the RHD, it would be unique in america.

Im working on getting a 96 R33

Skyline at the moment. RHD is the only way to go......
this one is a V Spec Model and with that pkg you get the
lightweight front seats and some other lightened parts.
Stock has about 300 hp, AWD, all wheel steering, twin turbo
etc.. Even for an 96 with 28K miles on it its going to be around
45K...

My Soarer is RHD and I wouldnt change it for the world...just be like another US car.
