Default south cali swap shops.

i know this one shop here thats very good but its expensive. they said they can do it for 1700 if you have everything like the ecu, axles, tranny. and they also clean out the injectors, put new radiator hoses, new cat, and they make sure it passes the smog test. they even make an appointment to the smog ref and get the sticker for you. but 1700 is a lil expensive isnt it?? do you guys know any south cali shops that can do it for less than 1700?? thanx

I am sure you can find local Honda-Tech'ers that will do it for quite a bit less.

1700. garbage. just for labor of installation and a few cheap *** parts like hoses and stuff? rip off. youre better of searching the net for swap guides like on c-speedracing, and doing it yourself. and i guarantee that their "smog passing" is just them having a deal with a smog shop and it gets done illegally IF it doesnt pass legally.

Spend $70 on a helms and do it yourself. You'll be much happier and know a HELL of a lot more about your car.
