we're gonna start really digging into the car on saturday (tomarrow) we have to get the wiring harness out so we can send it to hasport, We havent had much time to work on it during the week cause i work 9-5 and so does my friend. On memorial day weekend their shop is closed for buisness, so we have 3 days to really get goin, maybe we'll finish it by then. I hope so.

I talked to hasport a couple times via email about the harness, but they were no help to me. Luckily Greg from Hondawerx sent me to HP, who was a huge help figuring out the wiring ourselves. My mounts came from hasport already, they have good shipping there at least.

Greg from Hondawerx is getting my SI radiator/fans and injen SRI. We're still shooting for memorial day weekend for the car to be done.

if you havent seen my section in a while heres a picture of the motor out of the RSX


I'll update this thread when any big progress takes place.

like i said, i'll update the thread when we do something worth while posting to the car, we didn't work on the car this weekend cause my friend had off work and didn't want to work on his day off (understandable) This weekend we'll be working on the car for 3 days, so expect alot of updates, and possibly completion.

XxJDMCivicxX: I decided not to go through insurence. Don't worry i have my reasons.

You know you'll be one of the first people called when the car is done Dan, no matter where you are, you'll probably leave there to see the car anyway.

References have been HP for an understanding of the wiring. i also have the RSX and Civic service manuals for additional wiring help.

Whatcha doing with the D17? I could use some things off of it. I could use everything having to do with VTEC (to do a conversion on my LX). That probably includes the ECU. I could also use the throttle body. Maybe the clutch too. Maybe the tranny too. Let me know how much you could let all of this go for. PM me.

update again.

Working on the car again today, got the kframe, lower control arms, splindes, and brakes out of the RSX and onto the k20. We took the AC lines, master cylinder and throttle cable off the RSX. We got the rear brakes off the RSX and on to my car. I ran the RSX shifter cables into my car. Most of the hasport mounts are in, tomarrow we get everything sorted out on the wiring harness and raise the k20 into its new home.

the k20 mounted to the kframe and ready to be raised in.


useless now.


rear discs on (just surface rust).
