its not funny let him do it

then when he tried to install it and figures out it won't fit even a bfh won't help line every thing up and that we has timing chain and not a timing belt

then we can laugh at him...

oh for the right hand drive conversion you have to take a torch and some camoflage duct tape ( so you cant see it of course) cut the steering wheel off and tape it to the glove box. and if you get it on the glove box you will still have tilt steering. and then torch your brake pedal and gas and cluch as well. take some fishing line and hang them up from under neeth and wah la you have a right hand drive scion tc!

you should get a clue the flaming is for a reason.. once you get the idea... i hope you realize how you:

1. shouldn't listen to your friend
2. not waste money
3. learn that some ideas are really that stupid and/or impossible
