tell the guys at the shop to not trim anything till the motor is actually running.. then wait to see what part of the hood the motor hits...

Thanks cubanmike26! They had to bring in the motor from the bottom of the engine bay because of the turbo on the engine.

Actually its the main part of the engine harness that runs through the fire wall to the ECU. They are rapping up the AC line and its just as thick.

Good Luck with your swap!




Hi everyone, I stopped by the shop yesterday and took some more pics. They have the shift linkage hooked up and some of the intercooling piping hooked up.

I can see they started doing some work on the wiring around the glove box area.

The guys at the shop check an EP they had at the shop to see if it was possible to do the electric power steering rack. They said it won't work for my application because the turbo is too close to the firewall.

Here's a few more pics. Thanks for all the positive coments.

Opps here are the pics.

Nice, its coming along.

How long have you been without the ride?

[CIVIC X3]

wow...so hasport makes a k20 motor mount for the 04-05 model now? if thats the 01-03, i thought it wouldnt fit on the 04-05 model.

[EMK20a2]

^^^they are the exact same mounts, there is no difference

[xproductionz]

the engine bay for the 01-03 is the same as the 04-05
