I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

^^ for full swaps? i would like something that is the least hassle on me and the guys at the shop. the most plug and play. but something that also has decent bolt ons, and not too bad of numbers.

cant get no more plug and play than an ls no wiring what so ever. just go with an ls you will be so much happier and have a better setup for down the road trust me.

Just about any Honda swap is plug-and-play.

My first swap was my B16A into my CRX with 1 bay of a 3 car garage and only hand tools. If I can do it you can too!

Are you MPFI or DPFI? If you're still DPFI that's the only part that could slow you down a bit, wiring for MPFI (or just buy the HAsport conversion harness).
