Hi, I am thinking about buying these six cars from Japan. Toyota crown, toyota IST, Nissan March/sunny and honda Odyssey all under 99 to 03. As you all know, they are right hand drives. I am worried about their conversion kits/conversions and the price. Your opinions and advice will be appreciated.

Thanks Mayor but I'm looking at the possibility of having them done here especially the crown and Odyssey as they have unique dashboards and in the case of odyssey gear selector. The others I believe have european versions. The Nissan march is Micra for example but I would like to know if they are available here in Nigeria and a good mechanic who can convert them.

I would NOT get any of these converted in Nigeria. But, it's your call.

Conversion in Nigeria is not the issue. The big question here is would it be done well. Have a converted nissan almera recrntly brought to my workshop. It was converted in naija. All CAN wirings have been compromised. Now the car has a security system issue. These are some of the issues you could likely face and much more

Rather than buy 6 RHD, best to buy 3 original LHD vehicles.
I know cars in Japan could be cheap, but would be a loss leader on the long run!!!

Thanks. I am considering them for their unique looks, they are not for sale especially these two. The crown and Odyssey. The Odeyssey because of its unique interior and the crown....you know na but if all else fails, I will rather go for LHD though e go pain me if it cant be done here.

I can vouch for them, the one @ molete has his workshop close to adedibu's house, the other side of the road though. He did quite a number of jobs I saw and was impressed, except you were told the car was converted (camry pencil, camry muscle, honda civic 2005, honda accord 2006 European model) those I know and drove
some had display and was tested after conversion worked well also scanned to check 4 electrical fault, none.
I don't have his number also forgot his name it's been a while
