No clue yet. I am in the middle of all of my research as to what will fit me best. I am thinking some type of DOHC non-vtec with parts readily available in the US & decent fuel economy. I want to get my hands on the correct motor, trans, and everything needed. Rebuild it all, start from brand spankin new. We put a ninth bay in my shop this week, so I'll have the room. I am pretty damn good with VW's but I am new to the Honda scene. I know alot about maintenance, but very little about performance, especially motor swaps. I am learnin a little more every day. I actually think my next step is going to be putting MPFI on my lil 1.5 so it can be all ready for the swap.

This is true. I am waiting for that reason. Gonna gather everything up and be ready for a slight decrease in fuel economy and a slight increase in power.

Will do. I am now out of stuff to do. I think I am just gonna keep my eyes open for a rear disc swap and get that all knocked out. Too bad the local Honda/Acura wrecked closed up.

What year integra center console did you use, and other than treating it did you have to trim it much? Thanks, and great looking build.

It was out of a 95 Integra. No trimming at all.

Just remember, it does not line up perfectly. It's damn close and looks great though.
