so close, yet so far away
About 3 weeks ago i went to a junkyard and pulled a k20 out of an RSX. I have pretty much the main stuff to do the swap. motor, tranny, ecu, subframe, etc.... But there is so much little stuff that i need like Axles im gonin with the 94 GS-R ones. civic si radiator and fans, is there no way to use our raidator and fan. Radiator hoses, RSX fuel line, brake booster line, purge line, clutch line from master to slave cylinder. And some other crap. Can anyone offer any advice on where to get the parts at a resoniable price? By the way what is the intermediate shaft? not sure if i need that to.

From the guys here that have done the swap. PM Nobottlejusttrottle or Hawk Both of them know what is needed and they can give you an idea of where to get everything.

I was just going by what is on hasports list on there web-site. Well that sucks because the GS-R alxels are a lot cheaper than the RSX ones, but i only need the passanger side alxel i allready have the driver-side one.
good luck with the swap man....u may just wanna buy the axles from a parts store with lifetiume warranty like most people do with swaps so when they break take em out get new ones without waiting forever....im a few hours away in fl if u need any help id deffinately like to help all i can on a weekend or something were gonna be having a meet the 15th in Destin FL. if ur interested pm if u want to go
I just picked up a k20a3 and i hope i will be able to find the parts for cheap also. If you have any problems with the swap send me a PM because i will have to be doing it soon as well. Good luck

Yeah, ill pass on using the 02 si axels i called south honda today, try $800 each. Ill sell the motor and forget the swap before i pay that much. And i called a number of junkyards trying to find a wrecked si and no luck. I paid that much for the motor and tranny.
