Its the civic SI's electronic power steering. I won't be using the power steering pump, which steals away horse power and requires us to cut a part of the underhood skeleton just to use it.

I'll be replacing the poewr steering pump with the EP3 idler pulley set up and its EPS (electronic power steering.)

wow that sounds nice
where did you get it and i read that you got your mounts from this guy on e-bay may i know who it was
i want to swap too

D5cIvIc

iTrader: (18)

the guy who sold it to me was not like a dealer on there where you can keep on getting it. He just sold his mounts on ebay a while back since he sold his swap and i bought it off of him. He also sold me a bunch of other stuff that i need for close to nothing.

i got a stock type S shifter box and cables for sale if you're interested. You will need these for your swap

D5cIvIc

iTrader: (18)

I also picked up the EPS from a guy on k20a.org a while ago. Are you interested in one?

how much is the shop charging you for the auto/manual changover.. i was quoted $2500 for that in labor to install mine...

D5cIvIc

iTrader: (18)

you need to go slap them. A member on here by the name of "drivetofast" aka JOSH is doing all the labor for me. He's a honda mechanic and has done countless kswaps here in socal. If you want to know how much he charges you should pm him about it.

So i'm not going to a shop where they will have my car for months. Josh will take no more than a few days to get all of this done.

And what it looks like now... still gotta put back the upper bar.. ground wires.. and the rest of the hoses for the catch can






Of course a sheit load of trimming away at the radiator suppport to make the RBC manifold fit

iTrader: (6)

^is that a k20a1 head on there? you bastard, nice *** motor

btw d5, you puttin the eps in with your swap, or what? might as well get all the ponies you can

D5cIvIc

iTrader: (18)

hm...always wondered how much trimming it took to make that thing fit. Does the manifold hit the hood at all or no?

D5cIvIc

iTrader: (18)

yes i am putting in the EPS actually. I figured if i spent all this money, might as well as do it right the first time and get all i can out of it.

xproductionz

iTrader: (14)

yes trimming on the hood is required for it to clear the sensors on top of the TB and a little trimming where the p/s pulley is
