This is the parts list you will need off of www.hasport.com
Parts Needed
- K20A2 or K20A3 (from Civic Si) Engine With:
- AC compressor
- alternator
- P/S pump or idler pulley (from Civic Si)
- wiring harness
- exhaust manifold and catalytic converter
- ECU
- Transmission and starter
- intermediate shaft
- Axles from either 02 Civic Si or 94 up Integra GSR (we used 02 RSX with RSX knuckles and hubs)
- RSX or 02 Civic Si subframe
- Hasport ESK1 bolt in mount kit (as of this time the kit will not work with the K24)
- Hasport ESKWH conversion wiring harness
- RSX shifter assembly and cables
- 02 Civic Si radiator and fans (although the RSX will fit with some trimming around the radiator cap opening in the grill)
- 02 Civic Si upper and lower radiator hoses (RSX are longer and may kink)
- RSX throttle cable
- RSX fuel line, brake booster line and purge line
- RSX AC line from compressor to condensor
- RSX clutch lines from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder
- Custom AC line from compressor to evaporator (Hasport should have one available by April)
- 90 Accord negative battery cable
- If you want powersteering:
- RSX high pressure powersteering hose and return line
- 92 Civic P/S resevoir w/ bracket and a section of hydraulic hose to go from the pump to the resevoir
I myself am looking at doing this swap. I plan on buy the small parts over the winter and spring and getting the motor in the summer. I'm still not sure if I want to do the install myself.

oh btw some mechanic will do it for me 350 total labor costs. Jodster...HASport was nice enough to leave out a bunch of stuff on that list. Be ready for suprises, have an extra couple grand in the bank after all that is bought just to have for little stuff. Or you can just buy my wrecked car, and not even worry about those little part, or if the motors gonna work, or how to do the wire harness modification, and get TEINs, with rims and new tires and a bunch of other stuff.

But don't take any swap advice from me cause i can't even get my damn car to turn over, just cranks and cranks and cranks.
FYI. I have 6500 tied into my swap...but i had/have a whole RSX so i got the interior, brakes, motor/trans/ecu/wiring harness, and all the little nonsense parts...which there are ALOT.
Hawk, you should sell all your stuff, and just buy my civic with a working K20A2...i will give it to you for the going price of 10K...thats a fully working complete motor swap with CAI and exhaust, TEIN coilovers, rims that are all still good but one that has some scratches, new tires literally put on last friday, and so on. The engine bay alone on my car is worth about 7 grand. You buy my car, and you would have a working K20A2 in your car in less than a week...all you would have to do is transfer all my stuff into your car. Even comes with a battery to mount in the trunk. Just a thought....

what do you think i'm made of money? I'm broke as a joke after this ****, i mean hell i had to take out a loan just to get the motor.
i already have a motor in my car all i have to do is figure out whats wrong, its something electronicly.
Sell it to someone who doesn't have a k20, if anything is goin in my car it's a d17, if my motor doesn't work.
