Well since it really doesnt fit in a eg, im sure it would "fit" in an EK about as good as it does in a EG

my friend got one into his ek he said he only did it cause the ek he had the dash was all f'd up and he said that he would have just kept the stock dash if he had one... it may be easy this is just wat he told me

How does it fit? There are huge gaps on both sides, and door panels have to be heavily modified. That to me does not "fit". Its like saying a 350 fits in my civic, but I just have to trim and weld some stuff. The saying "Just because you can doesnt mean you should" comes to mind

EDIT: Before you ask, I still haven't finished my door panels. I've had other projects to deal with.

I guess we have diff definitions of what it means to 'fit'. If you have to modify, cut, weld, etc to ensure 100% functionality, then it fits.

Can you fit a teg dash into an EG/EK? Sure. Is it supposed to fit? No, of course not.

Is an RSX motor supposed to fit in a civic? Hell NO!



But it does.

Its a Civic, look elsewhere for luxury man..... looks like a waste of time and money to me. **** dash swaps, just swap a motor get some boltons make some cheap power (by comparison ) and call it a day.

I beg to differ. That k20 in your engine bay looks great. Your wrinkly door panels from trimming and huge gaps on the side of the dash look like ****. Hardly a good analogy

Want to tell what speficially you want to transfer? I mean the dash, but how much of it? transfer other parts? I see in that pic hes got the dual bend shifter (like in a dc).

hey Chez......shut up.

There's a good deal of modification that goes into putting a K20 into a civic. Your definition of what "fits" doesn't say anything about the result. You're just contradicting yourself. Fact is, you got owned by litterbox.
