well my 98 is sitting dead right now, bad automatic, and my wife knocked the front bumper off, I am interested in fixing it, especially with gas prices going through the roof, any transmissions that will swap other then manual, I love manuals, but my wife can't drive one, it's a leg issue,not a learning one, it seems you can't find a good automatic for these anywhere, even the transmission shop said they are junk, and aren't worth rebuilding, I could possibly do a swap, it's well within my capabilities

Man my hand and arm are tired! Spent all day just doing 2 rims with 80 grit. Didn't know doing the two bad condition ones would take all day. Good job with the trophy mike

Port, you gotta love them rx-7's dun! amazing how such an "old" car still stands so nice visually wise (and not only visually). look for dragon performance- you'll love their rx7's...

this will leave me three projects, the 98 which needs a tranny and some tlc, I had just done a timing belt change, got the valves adjusted right, new water pump, new cv joints, motor mounts, and some other work, and the tranny went. figures. I also have the 86 accord which is my major project, and the 90 Towncar which just decided to blow oil all over the engine today, I know what I'll be doing tomorrow. I'm hoping in a couple of months pick-a-part in Tallahassee might have one, parts for this car are pretty hard to find around here, they go really fast

Getting a complete intake manifold just makes it a little easier, since all sensors/injectors/tb will be there. But you don't really need the manifold itself. You should get the tb ince obd0 map is on firewall and obd1/2 is on tb itself.
You will not need a new oil pump with crank sensor, because you will be running p28.

okay, thanks for clearing that!

In my eyes it absolutely needs it. Especially after that last pic he posted. 
those soft tops are like grown men wearing skinny jeans.

I'm enjoying this thread, still trying to fully sift through the almost 2K pages of sedan pics and posts, just about 1/2 way there, hahaha.

im happy with my 97hatch and my 96sedan. but if i wanted to spend that kind of money on a honda, i wouldnt buy a s2k. im just not a s2k kind of guy, they look nice but i'd spend a little more and get a nsx.
