need to buy misc swap parts - from where..
Well my "full" swap came up short and I do not have shift linkage, axles, and a ECU. I cant really do anything about it because I bought it off an individual not a company like IAS or something like that. Anyways where should I go about getting the axles, shift linkage, and ECU.
I already called Importautosalvage, and they said they have nothing, seems kind of weird. I also emailed Evans Honda Specialist t00 but they dont sell out seperate parts. So anyone want to help me out

these two sites have good prices on the shift linkages.. they had it cheaper the my friend could get them for, and he works for honda.. werid..
as for the axles, check out carquest, napa, discount or advance auto.. I'm gettin axles from one of these guys for now, till i can get some decent axles..
for ecu, you can try to get lucky and find someone that's selling one.. i got my OBD I ecu from a guy from here. (b18c_powered) i had to pay 350, but he had it in stock and shipped it super fast .. but if you have OBD II, he can get those for like 150 shipped.. but he has to order it..
i was in the same situations as u.. the guy i brought my swap from, didn't send any of the stuff your missing also.. (bastards) but anyway,, hope this helps you in someway..

Hey:
There's a lot of that stuff currently for sale in the classifieds section, you just have to hunt for it.
Good Luck
Steve

Try your local junkyard/salvage yard. You can also try buying from Sohfast.com . They have a large selection of used parts. I have purchased from them before and their service is great. Others have complained about them but others have praised them as well.

IAS seems to be low on inventory lately. Plus, they won't ever sell you something that they might need to complete a swap... like axles, ecu, etc.
If you still have your original axles, I'd just use them as cores and go to somewhere like AutoZone and get some remanufactured ones. The shift linkage should be relatively easy to find at a local junkyard. Else, people always seem to be selling them on the messageboards.
As for the ECU, it really depends on what you need. You didn't say what engine you have. ODBI P72's are scarce right now. If something like a chipped P28 will work, I'd go with that. Kenji, from this board, sells them for a fairly reasonable price... here's one of his threads:
