Yep, but I could easily modify it for when I decide to eventually move back to the USA and put it in a RHD FD.. I could also easily make a subframe like the others that are sold right now, but I wanted mine to be much stronger, theirs all look pretty wussy...

Do you also use the stock mounting points (with the REW backplate) along with the side mounts ?.

I decided to use the Cosmo 20B RE back plate and the stock Cosmo mount brackets and cut a big chunk of aluminum to fill the gap and replace the stock rubber mount to create a completely solid mount. I was going to mod the FD REW back plate and use the stock FD mounts, but with the tork and HP I'm going for I was worried about possibly breaking off a chunk of the FD rear plate where the motor mounts bolt up on a hard launch.

How much does the subframe cost for a RHD FD?
