Stock fuel pump.
Lengthened or customized fuel feed from stock filter location to rail.
Extended/longer fuel return hose to stock return pipe.

That was it!

Some of the newer J's are like K's and all newer cars, with returnless systems.

Nice swap, very clean.

That engine is tall. Wow.

Shaker hood maybe?

Any thoughts on proving (not welded) mount kits and axles? I would love to buy them

**** seems like a AEM EMS or another stand alone would be easy to make things work, plus you could do some tuning...

I am glad to see more people doing this swap and kinda sad at the same time. Still nice to see.

I didn't do the swap to try and capitalize on it...I'd rather help everyone else, that's looking to do it.

EMS would be sick, but I'd be paying as much for the AEM as I did the car for the swap!

If more people means less than a handful, then why does that makes you sad? It's a very simple swap, that will never be the next K20- just not enough transmissions out there!

I Love seeing people try new things which is why I did this swap into my accord about 4 years ago. Makes me sad because prices have gone up on j series parts because of this swap coming about.

Just what market are you looking at and who's advertising such things?

Mainly the motors and transmissions. I have also seen some aftermarket intake manifolds albeit not very well designed manifolds but aftermarket manifolds none the less. I would love to see some manifolds produced similar to the Cosworth ones for the VQ engine series.

LKQ pricing on the J-series have always been steady ever since I've been purchasing in 03.

LKQ is an auto recycler.

I get Engines only. I don't use Honda transmissions, and I purchase J's that don't use casted manifold in cylinder heads. I don't purchase those years any more after 2004. Honda started using a different design along with oil squirters which allows them to be sleeved by Darton.

I am fully aware of all of the changes that have been made to the J series since it inception. I am curious about your experiences with a few things so, you have a PM.

Prices are not going up due to your swap from 4 years ago, or because of the few of us that have done it....it's mostly due to the sandrail folks! For every 1 car with a swap(accord, civic, tl), I'm sure there are 10 sandrails with a in it

Even back in 03, it was impossible for me to deal with techline at Honda for any sort of warranty issue concerning a block for a J series....as so many guys were falsely warrantying engines to throw in sandrails

The sandrails have done quite a number on prices I would have to agree. The Honda dealer techs up here just scratched their heads when I was getting some parts for my accord and I asked for CL-S parts. They told me I was wrong and that I was ordering the wrong parts and that there was no way that I had that engine trans setup.

No AEM does not have anything that will plug right up. However there is always the universal unit to use or something similar.

That shop, P2R, who had a J30 in their EF, was using PTR management.

Stock CL-S 6 ECU's go for the same price as a P28, sometimes cheaper. There's very few, so I'm trying to pick up as many as possible. We're working on evap system deletes and imobi deletes as we speak

Get MY facts straight? I know that Tim Beadles car is not Hasport's, I wasnt referring to that car. I am right next door to Hasport, and see the V6 civic (not Tim's) every single day, at Tri-Tech Motorsports (they own the car now) and it runs, and has been to the track a few times.
