D15Z6 to K20A - EK3 EUDM swap
Hi everybody.
I'm not that new here (I just lost my password and didn't manage to have it back also because I've changed the mail address almost 2 years ago), had a EG4 project back in 2007 here in Italy, which got killed by a truck in 2008. Couple of links:

Right after that, I moved to Swiss for a year, and in february 2009 I moved to Miami Beach, where I used to live for 2 years. Now back in Italy I'm planning to start a new project. Since I've done a B16A2 swap in my old EG4, which was not that hard, now I'm trying to go harder. The base will be a 1997 european EK3 with D15Z6 and P2Y OBD2a, which will be replaced with a K20A. Now things will be a bit slower, since engine and parts shipment, all from US, takes quite a bit. As happened with the EG4, I don't care about A/C and PS, so I shouldn't have the major problems on this swap, since I'm planning to do everything at home, just like the EG4. The EG/DC front subframe swap is on its way, to fit the EKK2 kit, DC2 LCAs and EG3 (no PS) rack with the quaife 3.25 quick rack and pinion kit. With that done, what will I need to fit the K20A with no issues and which are the best parts to use? Some say it's a pretty easy swap (once you have all the parts needed LMAO).
Parts List:
A/C and PS removal
EG/DC front subframe
DC2 LCAs
EG steering rack w/ quaife 3.25 quick rack kit
EKK2 engine mounts
