Skyline spotted in Diamond Bar

I was in the Diamond bar area last week about to go into a Korean restaurant. I pull into the parking lot and see a charcoal grey Nissan Skyline's back end. The first thing I say of course is wow, and immediately point it out to my friends. I take another look @ it though, and notice that the steering wheel is on the left side of the car. It looked like a skyline. It said it was a skyline. But it... wasn't a skyline? Anyone able to clarify this for me?

There are a few companies that do left hand drive conversions.

So I'm not crazy right? It was indeed a skyline? The driver was pretty AZN, so the conversion could be a possibility. I didn't have a chance to take any pictures though. . All I wanted to know though was that I'm not crazy, and there are left hand skylines rollin' around out there.

How many R-series Skylines in the states right now? Last time I checked it was like 65 R34s, most of them in the west coast.

yeah...i saw a couple times in Rowland hts, DB, and hacienda heights. one R 33, and 1 R34. The R34 was right hand drive. O, and there was a gray R34 parked at the life plaza for half year and has a for sale sign on it. The price was pretty good (asking 27,000) but too bad it's a right hand drive too.

WHAT, an R34 for 27k? Didn't sell for half year?

I would've sold my left nut to buy an R34 for 27k.
