looks nice - have you dyno'd it? whats you ECU, header, mount set up? what instrument guage cluster are you using (eg, dc2, dc5?)....BTW it helps if you type out the link so lazy asses like me just have to click on it http://www.Hybrid-Imports.com

not trying to flame cause there aren't too many hot chicks where I live but you need hotter models (edit - the blonde ain' that bad IDB)

nice swap..

how'd you handle the wiring situation?


...okay, if there was a "hina" lampin' on my hood like that, I'd be a little ticked off. I hate dents.

Hey man, how are the K20EG mounts? Did you have to notch out the frame to clear the idler pulley? Would you reccomend them?

Also, what wiring harness did you use?

you actually do not use the tensioner pulley.

Clearance is kinda close about 1/4 inch.

Only cutting for mounts is on the pass side. You just cut off the factory mount is all.

I have k20's pnp harness. Very simple.

The motor does set forward a bit unlike the honda challenge cars but of course weight distribution is different for drag than autocross.

That guys hood already has enough dents... Not gonna hurt it.. Just makes it look better.

My list of extras
Mounts, axles, clutch line, fuel line, FPR, heater hoses, radiator hoses, new clutch w/resurfaced flywheel, lots of loom, wire ties, kpro, primary air fuel ratio sensor O2, shift cables, shift box, 3M black tape, wires to extend some wires for harness power wires etc., B series engine coolant temp sensor, pins for cluster, all fluids, vaccuum hoses, prototype racing intake, extra tube needed to be welded to intake, brake booster hose, thin fan, 6spd gear shift ****, load leveler for putting motor in, new exhaust, header, make sure all sensors are good, fuel rail STR, STR alternator pulley, STR TB coming. radiator relcated to condenser position.
This is all I can think of right off the top of my head.

do you have any pictures of the hood clearance? how about the oil pan clearance to the ground? i really want to do this swap, but i don't want to have to make my hood look odd (other than stock).

edit. by the way. the girls are beautiful. wish they looked like that up here!
