Left drive? - Page 2

Now that you mention it that "bluebird" dash does remind me of a first gen altima. Actually looks the same from the vents up. The area for the radio and acc is different. The center console blends to the dash differently and the handbrake is on the wrong side for the usdm market.

I just like the idea of being able to steer with my right (stronger) arm while I'm shifting.

i would keep it RHD b/c people think its krayzie. only downfall is going through drive-throughs alone...

i driven rhd, nothing really wrong with it. downside is temporary which is the signals and wipers and moving your hand to switch gears, i hit my hand on the door couple times when i was trying to shift.

The altima IS the bluebird in some markets... it's a rebadge thing.

Changing a car from RHD to LHD is like cutting off your manhood and having it stitched onto your back!! Something that aint meant to happen... Hahaaa

Nope. That interior looks like an older model Nissan Altima, like about a '93-97

reading this reminded me that most of you guys drive on the wrong side of the road, whats the go with the legals on driving on the street with rhd over there, USA that is? or not a problem?

You can legally drive a RHD car here in the States, just awkward in a few circumstances. I guess LHD cars are not legal in Oz though, right? What's the story there... I'd love to visit your country some day though.

No Way... So if you drive a LHD in Australia, you have to have warning plates on it? I'd feel like a bit of a lepper if that was the case.
For some reason, i thought LHD cars weren't even allowed in Oz... Lives and learns!

Yeah, the 4 "S" words: Sun, Sand, Surf and Skylines! Who needs sex anymore eh folks! We'll take Skylines ALL day long... Nice one RSX84
