Wait..., what number is she?
JK!
Welcome to the world of RHD, it's pretty fun and I plan to always have at least one in my stable, (current one is in the process of getting washed and clayed before I post any pics)
Also, any interior pictures? Would love to see more of the instrument cluster and the IR button.
I know you sold the R32, so I wonder what you got now. I'll take interior pics soon. The one thing I don't like is there is not color change button like the USDM models speedometer. Which sucks because I hate green lights and this is officially the 1st car out of the many that I owned with a green display.
Also I can't seen to find the IR button, so it may be something that came with later year models....Fuel any thoughts?

Cool. Now you're all set to start delivering mail and packages for USPS!
Sweet, that means I also get to transfer my TSP plan over. 
However I did agree when you posted on FB, I would rather have LHD, but due to the incredible cleaness/rust free everything and low mileage, I can overlook the fact that it is RHD.

Just got approved to show my car in indoor spot at a Springfest this year (yes there was a screening possess for indoor spots). This is one of the biggest Import car shows on the east coast and I want to make sure I represent for the VR-4 properly. I will be updated this thread as I fix issues and MOD the car to get ready for the show. Issues I need to address:
1) Missing upper windshield trim. It when MIA after a quick highway pull.
2) Minor curb rash on 2 of my rims.Nothing the local rim shop can't handle.
3)Need new front pillow mounts. One of the JIC mounts has seen better days. (RRE might be my best bet since Tein are NLA, and Cusco are special order). The car needs alignment as well. However a local EVO guy just posted a set of evo 8/9 KW V3s for sale.....very tempting.
4) Dents on the hood. Waiting on Juan and those CF hoods. If not PDR might work with the worst case being sent to the body shop for a respray.
5)4WS light is on, need to figure out why and fix it.
For mods, I have a 20g but no support MODs, hope fully I can have it installed and tuned by then.

Change: 101.
After going back and forth in my head on turning my car into a road course weekend warrior, I decided on not doing so. In the end the car is SUPER CLEAN and 90% all original and systems like 4WS and ABS are still intact and work. I would be a shame (in my head to gut all this stuff if it still works) and mod the car past the point of no return. I keep looking at Harold's on Speedhunters, and I wouldn't mind a time capsule like this with early 90's type of build with some modern touches like ECMlink. To itch my track bug, I'll think I'll be better off racing my EVO X, it's overall better and more capable car out the box and if anything happens on the track at least I can still get new OEM body panels for the EVO, that can't be said for a imported VR4.
