As we in in the penal colony have such a remote location, I'm asking who is here?
Would be nice to get a list of members in Australia. Would help to get resources and information. I've met a few 914 owners here. Some damn nice toys out there Steve |

I imported my 914 from California in 1988 and converted it to RHD. It's a pretty straight forward conversion that involves modifiying the firewall, fueltank, pedals and dash. In those days the RTA didn't know what the car was and I didn't mention the conversion or the 2.7 motor and I got it through rego then without a problem. If you do an "official" conversion you will need an engineers report (expensive).
The road regulations have since been changed here in New South Wales allowing pre '89 vehicles to be registered LHD, all you need is a blue slip. If I were to import another one I'd leave it alone and drive it LHD. phil |
