Help - Just had my k-swapped car stolen!!
I live in Milwaukee, WI and went to the Brewers baseball game yesterday afternoon between 12:30- 4:40 and came back and car was gone. Parked in a Target along Miller Parkway where other people were carpooling also. This is pretty damn shitty, almost had the car where I wanted and this crap happens.
It is an 00 EK red with Bronze Rota slipstreams and otherwise stock looking civic. It was a 2dr EX also. Had K24a2 w/ RSX-S 6-spd. Had an S-2000 steering wheel too.
My number is 414-581-2127
It may have headed down to Chicago too.
I have no faith in humanity when this happens right next to a busy road during busy business hours... there were a ton of people around or driving by.
Please keep an eye out if you live in the area.
Thanks in advance, I won't get $hit from insurance, so need car back.

you also should keep a close eye on craigslist and ebay for anyone selling your parts.
If you do get your stuff back its a good idea to have your insurance company appraise your car so all your parts can be covered. it costs more per month obviously, but its worth it in the long run.

The southside near miller park is the last place I would ever think about leaving my car for more than going in a store, did you have an security?

Re: Help - Just had my k-swapped car stolen!!
what about those brake pedal/clutch locks?
do they work
autolock I think it's called
If I had a swap I'd get 2 , one for the clutch pedal and one for the brake pedal
They'd have to tow it or roll it away

Re: Help - Just had my k-swapped car stolen!!
Here are the pictures when I had just got the k24a2 in her back in 07. Those are not the current rims/tires. Current are the bronz Rota slip streams.
Sucks cause I now live in a good neighborhood and kept her in the garage.
This is still hard to believe and in the damn afternoon in a busy area!

Re: Help - Just had my k-swapped car stolen!!
Well, my car did not show up to my surprise...
I am now fighting with insurance and could use some help from ya'll out there trying to find k swaps for sale to show em how much they go for.... looking for comparables!!
What I am looking for is an online ad for a any 96-00 EK K swap with a K20a2 or K24a2 like I had. I also had the suspension, brakes, traction bar, rims/ tires totally redone for autoX set up. But I will take any comparables.
I will take anything you guys find, no matter the price or location. I would perfer an ad here in the midwest, but obviously I am not picky.
Thanks in advance for everyone's help, it is appreciated and hopefully I can get something decent with the insurance money, but need the comparables to help my cause.
Please help if you can!

Why not just call a honda dealership and ask them to do a quote for a new K24 engine. Then get quotes from 3-4 shops in the area for swapping it into your car. Should be more than enough for the insurance to go on.
