Fake DC5 front clip on ebay.
LOL check this out.
Click on-->
Ricky's auto center thinks this is a DC5 front clip with a K20A motor in it. LOL Well Its not. It clear to see that that is a base RSX front clip with a K20A3. Why? Because it has a plastic intake manifold, no red JDM valve cover, and to top it off it comes with a auto tranny. LOL These guys are dumbasses.
Oh and I will be e-mailing these douchebags to inform them of their stupidity. LOL

Rep Power: 374 Heres what my e-mail said that I sent to them.
"Explain to me why the front clip you are selling is a JDM front clip? That is a base RSX front clip you have shown in the pic. The K20A has a red JDM valve cover and it does NOT come with a plastic intake manifold or a auto tranny. Nice try though to fool some dumb kids. You need to fix your auction ASAP. And if it is a K20A as you say that it is Post a pic up on your auction showing the motor code to prove it. Cause if you look at it, it will say K20A3."

Rep Power: 374 ^^^LOL a little bit. But I also don't want to see someone get screwed bacuse they were lied too. But then again, if someone honestly believes that is a JDM front clip maybe they deserve to get ripped off. LOL
ROFLMAO!!! This line cracks me up. LOL If this is what Japan sent them, then they got screwed. 
ALL THE ENGINES ARE IMPORTED FROM JAPAN, AND ARE THEREFORE JDM ENGINES.

Rep Power: 0 thought it's not a type r k20, it's still in the k20 family, i won't blame him for adding "jdm" and among other things, after all, people now a days adds all different stuff in their title to hope for more views
heck, i saw a fc that said "supra mr2 civic rx7 turbo supercharged", it did generate a result in my "mr2" search, so it worked, didn't it?
when people type in jdm, that motor will come up, won't it?

Rep Power: 374 LOL this is the reply I got from them......
USUALLY WE DO NOT ANSWER EMAILS LIKE YOURS, BUT JUST LETTING YOU KNOW THAT THIS IS A JDM CLIP NOT A USDM CLIP, IN JAPAN IT COMES IN AUTO.
YOU THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING , STOP BY OUR SHOP AND CHECK IT OUT, AND HOPEFULLY YOU WILL THEN SHUT UP.
Right buddy. Like I'm going to drive 20 hours just for you to show it to me. LOL He didn't do a very good job proving its a JDM front clip.

Rep Power: 374 This is what he e-mail should have said........
"Well we don't usually don't answer e-mails like this, but after looking at your profile and realizing that you live in Cininnati Oh and we are in Miami Fl and you can't just stop by my douchebag of a shop. So I'm still going to lie out my *** and tell eveyone that the front clip I got from Fat Bob's Junkyard down the road is really a JDM front clip with a plastic intake manifold and an auto tranny. Why? Because I'm a fu(king POS that has nothing better to do than to try and rip people off on ebay."

Rep Power: 332 What the hell is that? It looks like the car was thrown in the water crashed to the bottom of the ocean, found and someone through in a "K20" motor with the goodies. Whatever Ebay dude.
That response they gave you pissed me off so I had to e mail them also.
"Thats not a K20A from a DC5. True K20A's have only came with manual trany, Honda never mated the K20A with an automatic trany, only K20A3's ect. Also, K20A's do not have a plastic intake manifold. Please take a pic of the engine code on the block which i'm sure reads K20A3 or something along those lines. Auction is misleading
~nick~"
see what they say to me

Rep Power: 374 Well if it did say K20A, than how could you tell the difference from the different motor? What I mean is that not every K20 motor from Japan should say K20A. Otherwise how could you tell when one is which. I Still do not believe that it is a JDM motor. I've never seen a K20A that has a plastic IM and comes in an auto. I just want proof. Then I'll admitt I was wrong.
