What's up fellow LA 7th genners?

I screwed up my engine & I'm looking for either a donor car or tuner shop to help me with a k-swap & prices if you know 'em. So, my questions are...

Who would you trust in the GNO to perform a K-swap?

What salvage yards usually have what you're looking for?

Anyone have any other pointers?

Thanks!

I'd take it over to Hybrid Performance over in Mandeville (i think?). They can sell you every thing else you'll need (axles, mounts, wiring harness). Here is the link...www.hybrid-racing.com. They've got a good FAQ, and plenty other goodies for what you are interested in. Check it out! You won't regret it.

I've also heard that Sonic Boom will do it, but they specialize more in SR20 swaps in Nissans.

You can get Hybrid to do the install. But get the motor yourself. Use www.car-part.com Has a crapload of salvage yards across the united states. Also try www.clubrsx.com or www.ephatch.com if you want the k20a3. If you look enough.. you can find a type s swap for 3- 3.5k . Hybrid racing wanted to charge me 4400 for a type s motor. Save money where you can man. Theres a lot of little **** that you need. Hope this helped.

Peace

If you dont know what you are doing, talk to either Sonic Boom or Hybrid Racing. I know Sonic Boom did a 4-door 7th gen w/ a rsx-s engine. I think they did the whole swap for 6 or 7 g's. When I save up enough money I'm going to talk to hybrid racing to see what they could do for me.

6-7 G's for mounts, axles, wiring harness, and tuning(?) ain't bad!

I've been considering a swap more and more recently, and will probably go that route once the car is paid off. I've been checking Hybrid Racings website and they fabricate alot of things themselves (mounts, etc.), but they don't currently have anything for the EM2. It'll be interesting to see how long before they start into that themselves.

Help me out here....
To do a swap you need these things (its a question, let me know if I'm leaving anything out)
1. Engine (of course)...(if you have an AT, one that works with the AT; if you have an MT, any of them will work?)
2. Axles
3. Wiring Harness
4. Motor Mounts
5. Tuning(?)

did I leave anything out? and help me out with what K20 (a, a2, a3) is adaptable to the AT in our 7thgens.

Thanks.

I don't know about any restraunt being across Hybrid Racing. If you're talking about the one in Mandevill down Viola ST. The closest thing is a gas station on the corner. Anyway, these people are doing my swap and they seem like they got their s**t straight. I'm speaking from actually being a customer there. Well, I got a K20A3 engine with an 6 speed RSX TYPE S tranny for 2200 firm. ECU and throttle cable included. Let me know Kyle
Also, they specialize in K series motors
