i've read the entire faq thread, i understand i need the mounts and powersteering from the Si and Subframe and such but that website has stuff with the swap like suspension and other stuff like that. i was wondering if since im getting a JDM engine if i need other special stuff that i cant get off a RSX-Type S front clip ( I.E.- KPH to MPH)

if you're keeping 4 lug ... get Si axles. If you going 5 lug with type S suspension, get type S axles ... if you're going 5 lug with type R suspension, get type R axles.

Are you even doing the swap urself? Or are you having a shop do it? Cause if your having a shop do it, and you get the engine from them, the vendor usually sends all the parts u need for the engine with it, so you don't have to worry bout it.

the reason im askin about the speed sensor is cuz when you do a sr20det swap into a 240 you have to pull the speed sensor off the k24. i was wondering if you have to do that as well with the k20a.

i will be having a shop do the swap and i will be ordering the k20a online cuz they are expensive as hell out here
