Default I'm doin a swap and have some questions.

Well I'm just waitin to get my tax return to purchase a 94-95 gsr. I plan on ordering it from sohfast because it seems to be the most popular and has a good reputation. Does anybody have any objections to that? Or could you suggest a better company. Also another thing I'm debating is doing the swap myself or not. I have a 95 civic ex. What else is needed besides the complete swap. I heard I need an si rear mount. Anything else I should know thanks for your help.

OK, first of all read the HYBRID page. Your already getting corrupted with mis infomration.

You do NOT need an SI rear mount. A GSR swap will use all the GSR mounts in your 95 Civic chassis. Only if your car was 96 or newer would you need Si parts . . .

Ge tthe swap from Larry Jr. at Import Auto Salvage
http://www.importautosalvage.com

Service is unbeatable, literally . . .

Jerome and Larry are both good guys to deal with. They even buy parts from each other from time to time.

Jeff is correct, no need for the Si mounts in a 92-95 swap.

Sohfast seems a little high to me.

I've never heard a bad thing about Larry at Import Auto Salvage. Of course, they're in my state, but if you're looking for quality over price I'd definitely give them a call.
