Hi there
Just wanted to tell you guys about the swap i am doing, i am swapping a s2000 f20c into a 5.gen prelude and converting it to rwd also. I got the swap from the UK and have been collecting stuff for the swap.
I am using a transmission tunnel from a Subaru Legacy,
Here are some picks

Sins my car was an automatic i had to install a clutch pedal.

Measuring the right height and position of the clutch pedal.


Cutting out the holes for the pedal bracket.

For the first time in 18.years my car has a clutch pedal :D

Engine is in.

Looks good.

Looking forward to doing something similar in summer. Any update on how the rear-end was fitted etc? Got a good idea on how I should handle my future projects. Thanks for inspiration and motivation for my next project.
