Has anyone heard from Aus lately? I haven't seen him around here on the forum for quite a while. Hope he manages to complete this conversion someday.

The quality of the RHD conversions varies a lot depending on who did them. Some look spot on with hardly any noticeable differences, others are a little more obvious.

@Carcenomy

I just noticed in the photo of your dash that they actually switched the shift indicator over to the right hand side. That's pretty rare. Most conversions I have seen don't bother with that, although it's not that inconvenient having it on the other side.

I see concerns about moving the brake booster those querying this are forgetting that it is just a line full of fluid. You could build a loop the loop in the lines and wont effect the performance as long as the booster can compress the fluid. My car doesn't look converted it looks like what a factory RHD would look like there are no giveaways to say otherwise.
This thread is a pretty good read for those considering a conversion. Almost getting old enough to wait for a LHD to pass rego think i will get another one that day.
