Re: k20a2 swap...Another socks member soon...
 
Yeah i'm pretty anxious to get the motor in already, but school comes first.

Josh will be the one doing the swap, who else right?
He's done like what?3-4 k swaps on the emII as it is.

Paul, you still got your car supercharged? hows that coming along?

subscribed du to me being in the process of getting a k series swap
i cant wait either
oh btw wat the ep3 eps

D5cIvIc 04-21-2007 06:23 PM

Re: k20a2 swap...Another socks member soon...
 
Its the civic SI's electronic power steering. I won't be using the power steering pump, which steals away horse power and requires us to cut a part of the underhood skeleton just to use it.

I'll be replacing the poewr steering pump with the EP3 idler pulley set up and its EPS (electronic power steering.)

Re: k20a2 swap...Another socks member soon...
 
wow that sounds nice
where did you get it and i read that you got your mounts from this guy on e-bay may i know who it was
i want to swap too

D5cIvIc 04-21-2007 07:31 PM

Re: k20a2 swap...Another socks member soon...
 
the guy who sold it to me was not like a dealer on there where you can keep on getting it. He just sold his mounts on ebay a while back since he sold his swap and i bought it off of him. He also sold me a bunch of other stuff that i need for close to nothing.

D5cIvIc 04-21-2007 07:41 PM

Re: k20a2 swap...Another socks member soon...
 
I also picked up the EPS from a guy on k20a.org a while ago. Are you interested in one?

Re: k20a2 swap...Another socks member soon...

Re: k20a2 swap...Another socks member soon...

you need to go slap them. A member on here by the name of "drivetofast" aka JOSH is doing all the labor for me. He's a honda mechanic and has done countless kswaps here in socal. If you want to know how much he charges you should pm him about it.

So i'm not going to a shop where they will have my car for months. Josh will take no more than a few days to get all of this done.
