I got it from a member on here cheaper Shipped than any advertised price not including shipping. I pm'd him and he seems to want to take care of business so, Hopefully everything works out. I want EF9 mouldings and a rear bumper, buuuuut i would rather go K-series, so my car is going to stay looking the same for another year, other than getting the frontend and my cage painted.
Function over form i guess.

JHOT FTMFW!!!! They are the best I've dealt with, my current 2 fronts are from them. HatchMo, should have told me, I would have sold you the hatch's front end.

i might just send this one back to the seller and get my money back. Pm me what you would be looking to get out of it. I possibly could give you my usdm with a golf course Bullseye hood in a trade.

The rear bumper I bought from them was shipped in a plastic bag. No box just a plastic bag!
Assword is the worst company I have dealt with so far.

you know what is a good company to ship with? greyhound. you can use a damn wood crate and they will ship it as long as it fits. cheap too. only problem is that they are a little low.

Im just getting a feel for whats a good deal on things, need to get a swap 1st haha..
Since the Usdm ecu comes with the immobilizers, I can use the Jdm ecu correct? In would Love to get K-pro but i dont think thats really needed at this point. Maybe later down the road.

Yes JDM will work. Or you can always get a Hondata reflash.

you can bypass the us immobilizer w/o a check engine light... you just need a friend with an rsx type-s and a few other things

I got my EFK1 mounts from nolimitmotorsports on here. At the time, it was the best price around. I know a couple peeps that can get them, let me ask around, maybe I can get a homie hook up.

Ignition/wiring/key.
I'd recommend trading the USDM ECU for the K20A ECU and just running it like that until you get Kpro.
That's probably what I'll do. I've got a long way to go, though. After it gets painted, I still have to buy all new trim (window trim, gutter trim, etc). Then I'm going to start of the swap. The list is long: axles, traction bar, fuel lines, fuel fittings, Rywire harness, header, Kpro/JDM ECU. Sometimes I wish I hadn't decided to go full resto/all EF9 exterior and just done the swap. Oh well. They payoff will just be that much sweeter.
Oh, I ran across this hood pin pic. We talked about them a few pages back. \/

have you done a quick search on those Avid mounts??
I was offered those but decided not to price or not. The homie Lost is about to put them to the test soon I'm sure he wil give his finding
</TD></TR></TABLE>
yea I searched the **** out ofthem. I ordered the hasport tranny mount and conversion but he thought I wanted the entire set (he forgot the convo we had a few days prior) and the avid was on sale for the same price I sent him. I told him I'm gonna try them out and if I dont like them I will return them. He was cool with that, so I'll let you know soon just how good they are. Most of the problems with Avid were from their old style mounts.
