To the OP, I was talking to the guy who is gonna do mine, and he said the best bet is to either just drill new holes in the firewall, or cut out a section from the old firewall and weld in a new section from the RHD firewall. He hasn't started yet because the clip still has the engine in it. So I'll let you know the route he takes.

thanks for all the comments guys. i know it seems like a useless time consuming project for most of you guys but i guess the reason for the rhd conversion is to be different. it would be different from the rest of the supras in ny i never saw a rhd one in ny.can you really buy a rhd supra and make it street legal? i always thought that you couldnt. would you have to buy it and put the 7m in or the just leave the jz in there?

I don't see why it isn't legal there but oh well.
The MKIV will be available soon and maybe I will buy one cheap to swap a 7M in to it! :naughty:
