exactly... because the mounts are needed thats a given.. but u forget that our those engines spin in the completely opposite directions therefore the trannies are on the other side... now u cant just bolt the current subframe in the opposite sides..
the subframes hold up the engine, and hold the lower control arms in place, so they are really important in the handling of your cars

...Or just mount the engine upside down. Not only would it have a unique install it would start a whole new trend.. Imagine it--Spoilers upside down. Head lights. Body kits even! (But hey, I'm tired. So forgive the silliness.)

its at a high price right now.
I bought mine with only 6900 miles on it, with subframe, full tranny, and all the wires plugs and what not for $3800.
That motor is already at $3500, and still has 6 days left on it. and the motor has 25,000 miles on it. Might i add that the motor has a SRI, so the owner probably drove it really hard. doesnt sound like that great a deal to me. But whatever.

Its most likly from a total. My dad LOVES the RSX now. not because he drives one, but because of all the Kiddies that buy them and wreck them. He has more RSX's at his body shop then any other car. Fast cars and stupid kids (who don't know how to drive Properly) are great for business.

Cool, so having a SRI means that you abuse your motor. Anyone else see a leap in logic?
