new project that just started.....now new FAT hole in wallet!
welp lets see how much im gonna spend on this...im guestimating around $8k to $10k.....but it will be going in my es1......with only i think about 90 miles on the motor! sorry pics are kind fcuked up cuz i took it with my phone.
pics were taken from the warehouse where the motor came out of the container with all the other jdmness inside of it( i.e. rb26's, sr20's, some vq motors, etc..) well wish me luck!

Rep Power: 0 very, very interesting ... I think you'll be the first person with the accord euro-r motor swap (in an em2).
hope you can bypass the dbw.
just a forewarning ... there may be a difference in the euro-r subframe and perhaps mounting areas. hopefully hasport mounts will fit.
