Unfortunately RHD cars have the A/C plumbed on the hot-side so the cannister needs to be relocated and the large hose from the A/C to the firewall needs to be re-routed:
Our "ABS octopus" is on the hot-side too so the hard-line in the shelf corner needs to be bent away from the downpipe which can be done by hand.
I still haven't hooked up the A/C plumbing but it should be simple for A/C specialists to redo the A/C plumbing kiezon, it's just a matter of them making a couple of new hardpipes for the new cannister position and making/routing a new hose from the A/C compressor to the firewall (will need to be heat-shielded).
Officially you need a registered A/C specialist to refill your gas anyway in Australia so you may as well get them to fit the new A/C lines.
I have a few other things I want to sort out before doing the A/C lines but don't think it will be a show stopper and cause me to rip out the A/C altogether - I REALLY need it in QLD!
If you'd prefer Savington, I can create a RHD TSE install thread here to cover these "RHD gotchas" and not mess up this thread, then moderators can delete my posts and refer RHDers to the new thread for specific information.

Purchased the kit in full 4/11/19, no reply until July when he said he would ship turbo, dp, studs, etc "next week". Never received these, didnt get another response until august, then no response until October. Received turbo in October, and after a response every other month I received the manifold and turbo studs on April 13th...Still no downpipe or oil and coolant lines. I was hoping to have it by late fall of last year so I could be tracking my car with it this year.

I am also in the same boat, ordered my kit in August of 2019. Got my turbo in October of 2019, I believe that was drop shipped from BorgWarner. Got my manifold and studs on April 13th, which will work, but casting leaves a bit to be desired, flange that goes on the motor has hardly any material. Not a huge issue I will still use it, however for the price I paid for the kit, I am pretty dissapointed. I have definitely heard the "it will be shipping in a few weeks" a lot. I have been very polite in emails and I understand that a small company like his has manufacturing issues, but the lack of communication is frustrating. Wanted to get the car done over winter so I could drive it during the summer. Still waiting for my downpipe, oil and water lines. Super pumped to get the kit, but not the buyers experience I was looking for when I bought the kit. I was assuming I would have it by Christmas at the latest. It will get here someday so I am not super worried, just slightly annoyed, was not sure if other people were also having the same issues, but I guess people are. As a question all around, would you have pictures of your manifold?
