Icon2 motor rebuild or purchase dealer

has anyone delt with H.A.S. (honda acura specialist or www.haspecialist.com) out in the inland empire bought motors from them or had there motor swaped with a rebuilt one there? (for those of you that are not doing swaps in the immediate future and use it as a DD). looking to get my motor rebuilt or swaped out cuz the wife says that she wants to get a KIA when my car dies and i dont want this to happen i love my hatch.

mods im not sure if this is the place to ask this so if it needs to be moved than please do so

I have no experience with H.A.S being from NY, however.... rebuilding motors is pretty costly. I mean, I think its more cost effective to just get a replacement JDM motor... like exact fit, not going up to a bigger motor, just say d16-to a-d16...

On a side note....my buddy just got the new kia....and I must admit, its pretty freaking nice. just sayin...



looks like a civic to me a bit

900 one time vs a car payment every month plus higher insurance i think ill go with 900 one time and keep my car and be happy.

motor would stay a d16 till i have funds to do k24 build

i dont think it looks like a civic
