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

K20a2 Swap Progress Thread - Classified Parts ONLY

Post by Hercules » April 03, 2007

Alright i just started round 2 for another k swap this time in a 96 vsm hatch!
Just picked up a k20a2 type s long block late last night for 1000.00. Its disassembled tho so i have to source cheap parts and accesories, i'm aiming for 3500 give or take a few running a dc5r oem ecu for now. They say it cant be done for less than 6-7k but we'll see about that.
The seller of the engine is giving me a sweet deal on a type s 6 speed also, i just have to come up with a couple bucks real quick and drive back to pick her up, she has 3200 miles on it, pretty bling! I hope to have this one running by mid summer so i can hit the track and such.
Image shack is being slow i'll post a couple pics after work..

budget is darren's middle name ... well, actually it's the Best Way crew's middle name, but it still fits the bill.

It'll be done. I'm saying 3643.72 when it's all said and done.

If it's under 4000, i'm doing one too ... so get it done darren, get it done.
