osaka, HMO, jdmhondaparts take notes! Engine swap IAS style! 56k Beware!
My swap arrived yesterday and just got outside this morning to take some pics of her (98 GSR / USDM). Of course it's from ImportAutoSalvage 
Wouldn't go anywhere else!!!
Wrapped up really good:
This biotch is clean!
Had no idea there would be sooooooo many bolts and $hit:
A little blurry, but you get the point
Axles on top and of course not just sitting on the valve cover like other shops will do
All hoses capped off and not cut. Once again a lot of shops will send you cut hoses. But, not IAS

Very clean. But they gave you EG6 axles (orange band) when GSR axles are a blue band (at least the ones we have here), but it's all the same size, same length, same chassis, same **** 
Looks good.

I dont think anyone can say thats not a professional, clean-looking swap. IAS seems to be on top of quality control.

IAS is the BEST place you can buy a swap from. You have NEVER heard any complaints. LarryJr and Randy offer the best possible service always, with no excuses.

IAS might be higher than others but in the end you get what you pay for. Swap looks clean and complete like they all should

Just realized I left out one of my favorite picture! This shot really shows how clean this bad boy is:
ECU came in yesterday. Going to sell it and look for the OBD1.

For real, those other motor importers need to take notes! That's super clean!

It's nice they gave you all that hardware.
It's always nice to have a lot of extra bolts.
