COME SEE THE ONE N ONLY K20A SWAP IN A 7TH GEN!!!!
i'm not sure if you guys have been following up on this but 'htowncivicEX' has been doing a k20a swap. he has shown a great deal of dedication to his car. from what i remember, he's from houston, texas... he called alot of places and finally found a place that would attempt it. the only place being a shop in san jose... he had to fly back and forth, ship the engine he bought from ebay there and then finally ship his car there...(sorry if some of the info is wrong, this is what i remember from like 2 months ago). but ya anyways he said he'll be willing to have a little meet on friday night here in LA to give a chance for us angelinos to look at what every 7thgen owner wishes they had. i'm not exactly sure exactly the place and time and will try to get that for you asap. i have PMed him and will try to pick a place and time at his convinience. if you want to follow up, read this postk20a swap part 3 it has links to part 1 and 2 so follow those for more info.
Someone please set up a date and time and post directions by late Thursday afternoon. I have a night class all Thursday night until 10 pm, then a friend is taking me directly to the airport, where I will catch a few hours sleep before my 6:45 am flight the next morning. So I won't be able to access this board after, say, 4:30 pm Central Standard Time on Thursday.
If you guys still haven't set anything up by then, I'll just leave my cell # so someone can call me with the relevant info.

Let's meet at the same IKEA that we met at last Saturday. The fact that we had almost 30 cars show up indicates that it was a pretty good location, plus we all know how to get there.
Yes? No?
