There are a few people that have done it, although all are LHD versions, so I am not sure if that will complicate matters for you.
Hasport has a mount kit with full instructions, maybe check that out as a starting point?

i have read about it . but it is just that people dont update anymore.
so i wasnt sure whether it is abandon project or incomplete ones.
i have checked it out and it said to full kit of mount but wasnt sure about honda crv lower back mount which some had update in their project which need to get it separately or not ?
and still alot of things i need to learn . thanks for your reply . appreciate it if you know anyone can guide me . please let me know.

Re: K swapping Honda Prelude BA8
What exactly do you want to know? I've seen one in person, doesn't look terribly complicated beyond getting it mounted up. Honestly after seeing and riding in a j series prelude... if i were to leave the F or H series, i would go that route because the cost and workload will probably be about the same to do a K or J... and i believe innovate (or someone) already offers those mounts for the J35... using a J32 requires a little modification to the mounts. Not to mention how incredibly NASTY the j series power band is.
Also don't underestimate just boosting your F22B. Mine is fun as hell and likely much faster at 300+whp than you're giving them credit for.

Will for sure need one of our ESP BA Traction Bar Systems to clear the bigger motor we also have Front Torque Mount Kit for K series option as well
