Is it worth it to convert it from the inside and out?And also getting a JDM Front Conversion. And How Much would it be?

Depends what you are trying to accomplish. Looks and a nice car to drive or something to turn around and sell. No matter how much money you invest into it you wont get it back so its not worth it if you are planning on selling the car in the next two years unless you dont care about a loss.Here is everything you will need broken down:Since you said you want to go JDM Front then you are looking at - $1600 with labor or $1000 alone if you do it yours. Also that is for the non-hid conversion, it will be extra $400 if you want the hid'sRecaro seats - $700Type-R rear seats - $150Type-R carbon fiber center console with climate control - $200Type-R gauge cluster $100 for JDM or $200 for USDMType-R door panels with carbon fiber door switches - $200Type-R 5 lug suspension - $1000 or $1500 with wheelsType-R engine/tranny/ecu - $3500 roughlyType-R sway bars - $200Type-R front strut bar - $60 I suggest getting a aftermarket oneThen if you really want to look like almost identical. Take it to a shop or you can do your self and have the moldings shaved off and if you have a sunroof you will have to replace the roof with one off of a Integra RS model since the Type-R doesnt come with a sunroof

yea gofor it do the 97 type r conversion shouldnt b that much but if ur doing to sell the car a couplemonths later i dont knw but if u love ur car and only wanna make it better i say go for it its definitely worth it

It's more then the looks and the engine. The weight distribution, suspension, everything between an R and and ls, even a GSR is way different. It's a lot more work then you think. If you got the cash go for it, but other wise I'd just look for one.

I think it might be cheaper to Import it from Japan and then work on it. Thats what I did.
