it up to you to think -> if its a dream or not. some of the blokes locally have done those conversion. at the end it boils down to money and how much you want to get it done.

as for going for the jdm 96 ITR. pls be informed that there are only a couple that came in as private import, there are still heaps of those floating from rebuilts.
Question is, if you ain't worry abt rebuilts, then either will not affect ur choice in buying...but for me IMHO, why buy a JDM 96 ITR, why go backwards?
