I'm thinking about getting a doner car to do the motor swap and I figured whiel I was at it I was going to take the suspension off as well and do the 5 lug swap and 4 wheel disc. My question is about the interior side of things. I was thinking of swapping out the seats and the dash. I know the seats will fit but what about the dash? any ideas?

Why don't you just buy an rsx?

i would just keep 4 lug nut and use the si axles. Some people on this site have put the rsx-s seats in 7thgens already but for the dash?? I remember a long time ago i saw old 90-91 civic with a k20a2 swap and the dash also modified in. Maybe someone can find it on here?

I coulda sworn some one has swapped the dash on here not to long ago......try and search, I bet it can be done. I think 5 lug conversions are sick! do it up

Just a little more background on the project, I'm thinking of building a show type car using most of the parts from the RSX on my EX sedan to make something like a 4dr RSX, I'm still in the early planning stages right now. As for why I don't just buy and RSX is cause its more expensive on insurance then the sedan and I have a kid so its easier to have the 4dr. I have even thought about swapping the headlights and bumper as well, I know that the fenders and hood will have to go with it as well, I'm pretty sure those parts will swap as well. I did search on here but mostly found people doing LED gagues and stuff.

1 thing I forgot to add... I was just going to be looking to do ao motor swap but it dosen't seem like its all that much more to try and find a salvaged title RSX. Most of the cars that get salvaged titles usually have frame damage, at least from what I have seen, and I don't want to just waste the rest of the car if I can use most of the parts( IE dash, brakes, suspension,etc...)

I saw that forth gen hatch.....It was red wasnt it? It had a K20a2 and the full RSX-S interior(dash,door panels,console,seats, etc) The car was nice. I think it was for sale on ebay. Thats were I saw it. To get back to the original question, I dont know if it will fit. If it does there should be DIY on it. I'd be interested.

yes it was red and it actually looked nice. I doubt it would be a direct fit but i am sure it can happen, but i am fine with the k20a2 swap lol. Even though insurance is a bitch on a rsx-s think about the cost of trying to fit all the interior panels dash etc.

I realize some stuff is going to have to be custom done, I plan on trying to do as much of this as possible by myself. I guess right now I'm just tryn to figure out how much of it I can do myself. The more stuff that I can find out is a direct swap the better off I'm going to be. Like I was saying I'm going to be looking for a salvaged title RSX so getting parts is only going to be as hard as pulling them out of the RSX. I wish there was somewhere that had a list of all the stuff that would swap. Thanks for your guys input so far.

the door panels you can do no problem, ive seen it in my freinds and it looks mighty nice. He also did the front dash area and interior, and look nice as well, and didnt require THAT much work, but work is work lol
