93integraDA Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I just purchased a shell of a 2001 Acura Integra type r for 1500. No motor or trans. I was looking up motors for it and I found that on Passwordjdm.com they wanted 4900.00 for the motor. I also found a RHD front clip for 4300 full motor and rhd conversion. Do you think it would be better just to do the front clip and go full jdm or just buy the motor. How much hassle would it be for the conversion and which would you prefer. Leave one letting me know. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Just get the engine. RHD is pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Matteu Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I say do the RHD conversion. The electronics associated with the JDM front clip include components not found on the USDM version. If you goal is to get it running as quickly as possible, get the UDSM Motor and call it a day.
