They are the dealer for Perfmax which is a Queensland Company that does the conversions to RHD.

$125,000 driveaway.

Comes with 4 year Warranty, 120,000km which is covered by Performax and done through Melton Toyota as would be the servicing.

I spoke to a bloke called Martin.

You could most likely convert a 6.2L LS3 into a hilux and get it engineered for less than that.

Yeah with our dollar the same as the U.S. dollar at the moment. They start at $25000 over there. Makes you wonder how much our government makes from the import taxes.

It won't last long. Remember back to when Ford Australia were importing and converting the LHD Mustang's?? They were asking 80 large, yes it was all factory, and factory warranty, but I can import and have a private conversion done for 50.

Agreed, looked into this sometime back using the import guy who brings in boats for me.
Depending on the year, condition etc, I was looking at between $50k and $60 for a mid 2000's model all-up, imported, converted and registered in Vic. Obviously dearer for later models.
An LS1 conversion however (into an 05 onwards) on LPG was around $13k......
Or lastly, a Raptor kit on the V6 with exhaust etc for around $9k......decisions, decisions....

You can register LHDs in the Territory. Stuff converting them,just have a VERY trustworthy passenger when overtaking a triple Roadtrain out along the Arnham Highway..... ;)

That truck with all the dudads fully loaded is 35000 max in the states. Forget that I thought you guys got screwed on the Hilux. You could build a much better car for cheaper. In fact people on here have and are doing that!
