Default swap is done!! finally

well after three days the swap is finally done. started no problem. had some issues with the wiring but figured it out with the help of everyone on this site. brandon(poison) was a huge help. i owe alot to him. i have a few bugs left though.

vibration from 2k to 3k when accelerating.
doesnt always want to shift into third when im hard on the throttle.

other than that the car pulls nicely! im trying to borrow a digi cam so i can get you guys some pics. i want to thank all of you guys once again for all the help!! im sure there will be more to come

hasport harness was $315. it took 5 days to get there and they sent it 3 day select back to me. i sent them both of my cores vx and prelude. harness looks great. would have done it myself but i really get enough of that at work all day. doing the swap alone was too much of a hassle. i would do it again though

Congrats! Can't wait to see all you guys at the H22 meet this month.
PS: I had Suprdave do my harness. He did a good job, and it was a third less than the HASport one....

I sent it out on a friday, and i got it back 2 fridays later. The DSS axles are great. I recomend them to everyone. After seeing the axles that came off my friends integra, I was so glad I got these ones. Plus you get to keep the lude shaft.
