Whats all the hidden cost to look for when doing a k20 swap into a honda civic ek?
so theres this deal out there for a k20a2 rsx type s engine for 3500, it comes with the engine transmission and all the other goodies for the swap, my question is theres always going to be hidden costs for doing this kind of swap, all i know is i should get the hasport mounts which are like $400 and i would need to do a custom exhaust. what else do i need and what else do i need to look for when doing this?
i wanna get an ideal on how much this swap will cost cause if its an alright deal. i think i might sell my motor and recuperation and get this one

the hidden cost is the wiring. i have seen people Frankenstein harnesses together.
you have length issues. The RSX stock harness is quite short for EG/EK/DC4/BB2. it does fit wrather well in the insight but there are still some small issues.
