Yo
the best place to look is www.k-series.com, www.ephatch.com, and www.ebay.com
you might also want to try calling "Chassel" in montreal. They will probably have one.
You'll need the tranny as well.
oh ****, I just rememberd: for $4200 CAD, "Japan Auto Parts" in toronto had a type-S with tranny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe how cheap it was!!!!!
they couldn't sell it because most people go there looking for subaru and other imports...not too hot on the honda scene.
Give them a try!
For that price, I hope they still have the motor for ya!

make sure u get it with sub-frame
and also think about the engine mounts man....are u going with custom made engine mounts or mounts from HAsport, etc?
and labour wont be cheap too and if i am not mistaken, eric u want to convert from auto to manuel too right? there's extra labour on that cuz they have to drill holes and install the clutch pedal and get it all working, etc
anyway good luck with the whole deal and call me when the car is ready

yea it's gonna be alot of work. I am considering right now.. I think everything done is going to run me $7500 around the thing is I don't have that much time to let them install it for me... i talk to albert he said it's gonna take pretty long...
because i only want my car out for one week i don't want it to be gone for 2 months.

it will be out more than a week for sure. Unless u can find a shop that work on your car 24/7 for a week straight then u might have a chance
and i talked to a friend of mine and he said the install is expensive cuz the engine mounts and also the wiring harness is not as easy as we think cuz u have to reprogram the ecu to work with the immobilizer, keyless entry, this and that
that's why Gusto told me it's good it's done but the process was pure pain in the ***
good luck with it and ask me if u have question

if u can afford it then buy a EG or EK shell for dirt cheap then do a B-series swap cuz it will run u the same amount of money as doing the RSX-S swap into your 7th gen and the benefit is that u have a race/track car and keep the 7th gen for daily/winter beater
