Rep Power: 0 Help with k swap info
Prep for wall of text I'll try to keep it short
Was in a base k swap ek hatch the other day and was very impressed so I'm going to do one.
The conversation parts are going to be the most expensive. Alot of the posts I found about it are rather old, like 2008 era which prices were a heck of alot more.
So far this is what I have
Immobilizer override-180
Mounts- 350
Wiring harness (may or may not need) 290
(may be able to just mod the k series one)
(Also no idea where to find the harness that allows you to use the OEM gauges)
Fuel - no idea if want to get a new rail with fpr or do something else for it
Shifter plate-130
Cooling insert adapter- 40
(Maybe back and forth with upper hose mount or lower)
Power steering hose off RSX maybe custom no idea on price at a local shop
And the header I'll figure out later I think Mugen makes a cheap one?
Ac-ill worry about that later
Anything else I missing besides random odds and ends dealing with wiring? And anyone know if the pricing is appropriate for today's 2017 standards
Thanks any info would be good.
Also if I'm in the wrong post section sorry

Moved to correct section.
Now, star reading the stickies on the top - tons of info.
Look in 7th gen section too, some engine info there as well in the sticky threads

it's swap, so kinda car specific, but not, complicated
