Default I'm getting a heart transplant... keep me in your prayers!

Well, not many of us left the darkside easily and for those that did, it usually leaves alot of damage. After almost 2 years of being boosted, I decided its enough.

I can't stand having around 300whp on the street that can't grab traction around a corner. And the response is not my taste, I miss the response of a stock motor.

So I decided to pick this up: (K20A Type R)




Other goodies it came with:


The garbage:


You can find the complete motor and setup for sale here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1055133

Now all I'm waiting for are the axles, mounts, and ITBs! So keep me in your prayers still!

I picked it up from brian up in northern cali
Brian is a very good guy and great to deal with! I can vouch for him anytime.

He gave me everything that was on that front clip! Even the airbox, shifter cables, sub-frame, and the cat with the o2 sensors for k-pro!!
