wait, xproductionz since when can we CAN"T use the rsx-s subframe?

just read a thread on k20a.org that we can only use the ep3 or base rsx subframe. What is the diff. with the type S one?

who said that???...

if thats the case then someone better tell my car that it cant be using the type-s subframe and it needs to change it.. lol..

i think what they might be referring to is the axles.. you can only use the axles from a base rsx or ep3... subframe can be from a ep3, rsx, or rsx-s

with the hasport Wiring Harness Conversion what does that harness look like? do we give them this harness thats in our cars already when were ready to swap is this harness on the motor? i dont wanna wait 2 weeks while my car is down waiting for them ya know. on the hasport website do they still require the core?

xproductionz · 06-17-2007

the harness you need is that engine k20 harness from either an rsx or ep3. you can do one of 3 things

have hasport supply the harness and do the conversion

supply the harness and send it to harness to do the conversion

or do it your self...

pick one

ahh ok. ill just send them mine from my engine. at least i wont have to have my car in the shop for 2 weeks waiting for them to do it. i thought i had to pull a harness from my car and send it to them.

When i had my harnass converted by hasport, they said that we would need to send in our core rsx engine/charge harnass for them to do the conversion.

So I don't think they supply the actual harnass for us for extra, but i could be wrong. Their website even states they will need our cores to build it. I just received mine like 2 weeks ago.

sspem2, oh if you're planning to do the swap soon, just keep into consideration that they will take roughly 3 weeks to get the harnass back to you.

well they actually supplied one of our customers cars harness cause his motor never came with one. So we asked them to supply the core.

They can supply the harness based on availability for an extra charge. That was what they used to tell me a year ago so things can change from then to now.

Its like hondata. They tell you to suply the ecu to put the kpro in there but at the same time if you dont have one they can supply one for an extra charge based on availability

See back then i was the very first few ones to do the swap. I was the 4th person to buy the mounts that were made for the 7th gen civics. Turn around time for harnesses back then was if you sent it out on monday you would get it back by friday. Now it takes a bit longer. Thats why there are a few people on this site that wire up there own harness

imma send my harness sometime next week for hasport to do it. sweeeeeeeeeeet. just took it off. man thats a long ass harness with so many clips and crap

hey i just took my motor out, and i was trying to bolt on the rsx sub frame but one side of the holes are off???? i have a 03 em2

xproductionz · 08-13-2007

either you got they gave you the wrong subframe or you got it backwards...

or you got a bent subframe.. i say that because its highly unusual for just one hole to be off considering there are 4 holes.... if one is off then that means the at least one more should be off.. think about it.. if you match up the holes to the left.. that means the right ones would be off.. and vice versa... so to have one hole off has me to believe that one corner of the subframe was bent somehow...

streetthrowback · 08-14-2007

when i bolt on the front 2. the back 2 wont match up if i bolt on the back 2 the front 2 wont macth up

streetthrowback · 08-19-2007

hey i found out the problem it was the person who sent me the sub fram that was a lil bent (it was off by .5 of a inch) so i just used a hydrilic and just bent it back, did u use the em2 stock clutch slave cylinder or the type-s one???

xproductionz · 08-19-2007

u have to use the type -s cause the tranny sits on a differnt side of the motor and blolts up to a different spot oas well

streetthrowback · 09-14-2007

well i fixed it, i just bent the sub frame back to the specs, am also using the stock shifter cables for my k-frank swap, everything is good am just going to cut the n1 so that way i can fit the rsx down pipe, and i should be firing after that
