yea, i lied for a while that i didn't have the swap... but i do... ive been driving for a little while with it...

i used hasport mounts and i had to custom the passangers side. most of the stuff in my car is brand new from honda, which raised the bill a couple g's, im not disclosing how much it cost, but it cost alot....

ruben(em2guy) and his friend shawn installed it, and did all the wiring. they also had to convert my car from auto to manual.


K24a1 block
k20a2 head
Hondata k-pro
Hondata Intake Gasket
Rsx Type R Intake manifold
Rsx Type R Throttal body bored out to 70mm
rsx S 6 tranny
rsx S brake booster
rsx type R Clutch and Flywheel
AEM CAI
DC race header
2.5inch Pipe, straight...


and if you look at my profile, you can see the other things i did to the car

Hey, you spent a butt load on everything else, so why then are you using a dc header that has the same diameter primary tubes as stock while you use 2.5 inch piping? Curious....

looks like a tight fit. Were you able to keep the stock fans and radiator? Do you think there would be any room left for IC piping and turbo?

i didn't use the stock radiator and fan, i used a si radiator and fans... and a rsx radiator reserve tank
im just mad that i dont' have cruise control anymore because the type R TB doesn't have the correct bracket for cruise control.. and a type S one doesn't work... so i might make a custom one... eh...
