Yo Collen I think you should read this thread on NSXprime. http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?t=115204

Apparently if you bring back a right hand drive NSX it'll probably be the only one in the entire U.S.
kinda glanced thru it...

the only way (besides military) is to buy a salvaged nsx cheaply, and swap over the VINs onto the JDM nsx that you have imported "for parts and off road use only".

then when you get pulled over, you can show the USDM vins and stuff, and say you converted it to RHD.

too much work to have a car almost virtually identical cept yer driving on the other side.

I'd say the biggest difference between a JDM vs USDM besides it being right hand drive is that the JDM gear ratio's are closer together while the USDM ones are further apart. Therefore the JDM NSX's have better acceleration when it comes to shifting the gears since the shifts will be in VTEC range and higher in the powerband.

sorry I didn't make it to the meet. we were stuck at work because of flooding on Kunia Road. you guys might have seen it on the news.


With regards to bringing back an NSX, it will not be a problem. I think I told Rob why, but I don't wanna go spilling it all over the boards. If I come back to Hawai'i after Japan, I guarantee I'll have something from Japan rolling around on the rock.
