thanks guys-- I will look into it.. The bad thing is the car has to be towed.. I sold my crx and bought another one that I want swapped-- It's not running as of yet thus the reason for the swap.

A couple of resources stopping me from doing the swap... I dont have time. I live on campus with my wife, no place to do it. I can do basic stuff but doing the whole swap, hehe thats a whole different story..

Whats up dude? I live in the greensboro/high point area and id be glad to help you out. Ive done prolly 25-30 swaps inculding 3 on my own car...and i have experience with d series and ZC swaps. My best friend and i do swaps all the time...he has a shop in randleman that we can do it at. And a swap as simple as that should only take a day or two if you have everything that you need. And if youre looking for the z6 i think i have one that i could get ya. PM me if youre interested.

BTW-i have like 5 friends that go to UNCA...and i cant remember exactly but i think its like a little over an hours drive from here.

I think I may check on that.. The car has to be towed due to it not running. Clutch issues with it . I am interested in a z6 however I due like the fact of a 30-45,xxx mile zc being installed. Let me know roughly about how much it would cost in labor. Feel free to pm me on it

cci motorsports is in thomasville, 336-669-0286 John Hamm or Phil Kearns (Forget them I thought you said Asheboro) . Hondaworks is expensive. The dealer charged me less to put a d15b vtec in my car than they did. P1 Auto was cheaper than they too. I have a bunch pf friends that do it as a side job if you want any of their numbers. in Charlotte and Huntersville and Albermarle area.

Bump! Thanks for all the input guys.. I have an offer of around 525 for a zc swap.. I believe I will be taking that.. However Ive heard zc swaps are getting harder and harder to find parts for if something goes wrong
