Our raptor is similar to the us version as it has coil springs and 4 wheel disc brakes. Any way I hope that petrol model comes to Australia. Time will tell. I can only hope.
Just proving your ignorance here. There is no RHD 2.3. Would require a lot of work to get it done. Moving the steering rack and brake booster to the other side would require a lot of design work to get it all to fit around the 2.3.

Which then all requires re-testing. And re-certification on australian fuels and standards. Plus crash testing.

Should only cost about three fiddy right?

And the US version is significantly different.
