Cool, so how long do you think the process will take?

[borini63]

I think in the end of October or November at the most....the shop that doing the swap is packed with cars and they are very busy(everybody converting to LHD).

I hope the 240K will be here in the new 2016 year.

280ZX N/A engine and 5Speed close ratio tranny are in the Kenmari.Also the steering column and the steering wheel are in too......

Shipping from Aus to Dubai to San diego must be expensive. Is this a one time import or do you plan on getting more 240k's?

[240kMad]

Will come up nicely once done mate, got any plans as far as colour is concerned? BTW your friend has quite a nice collection in the background

No it's a one time import....but you will never know.I might do it again.

I can't find one here with decent price so we decided to do it the cheaper way......
