I have a 99 civic dx and i want to put a 6 speed k20 into it. is this a good swap rather than say a ls/vtech also what do i need for throttle cable, rad, rad hoses, shifter linkage, wring harness anyone done the swap is it that difficult?

 

i say its going to cost alot more money then LS/vtec. To put a type S is around 4 grand and up + mounts in and type R is around 6000 and up + mounts. basically ur gonna need the normal things that a b series needs. a different type of radiator hose, the one off the rsx is fine, u need the k series shift linkage/cable, axles, custom mounts, ECU, a rsx stock ecu will not work because of the ignition chip that communicates with the ecu, so u gotta have it modified. and u need a new wiring harness for the motor and other things i cant remeber
