Rep Power: 0 Are you planning on using these parts on your civic? If so, that's a lot of work and a lot of money, you might as well trade in your civic for a brand new rsx, it's just my opinion though.

Rep Power: 0 Ummm, I don't want to trade it on a RSX, I want the parts for my Civic. I want to swap the motor and suspension...because I want to do something different? Why does it matter?

Rep Power: 0 Well obviously I am going to have to pay the price since there aren't alot of them out there, but considering I want the whole car and work for a body shop....I'm not paying some outrageously inflated price.

OK, but the fact is you're right. It does sit on the opposite side of the engine bay, and would cost 10,000 dollars (parts, labor, engine, tranny, ecu, immobilizer, etc.) according to Import Builders. Only 1 to our knowledge has DEFINITELY been completed and is running, and that's our very own Htowncivicex. A CRV engine (B20, the older CRV) has been speculated about, but not attempted, and thus not completed. The NEW CRV engine (K24) has been speculated about as well, but hasn't been attempted or completed either.

That is not a fact 10,000 not from what Import Builders Told Me. They will install it for 3,000 but you must get RSX: Sub Frame ( under motor)
Mounts (ALL)
Shift Linkage
Axles
GSR Axles 1994+
ECU
Radiator
Radiator Hoses and The Motor.
I'm not sure if all that would cost 7,000 it might. [IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]
