woah, my friend just offered me his 2003 rsx engine for cheap....unbelievable, he says it will fit but i thought i should consult this board first. his transmission was automatic as is mine, what do you make of this?, will it even fit my 00 ex?

 

Why the hell would someone buy a RSX in auto !

 

I think neuspeed race springs would take care of the gap. I have H&R sports with about 1 finger gap all around.

If you do go with coilovers, go with Ground Controls, Skunk2, or if you have the money get full coilovers like Tein, Tokico.

 

the kids loaded and hes one of my best friends, i know hes not shitting. he was given the car the same way i was given mine (if mine was by choice, i'd have a manual), but hes selling the car to buy an EVO and offered me first dibs on his engine for extreme cheapness.

 

I tried to respond to your PM, but your mailbox is full.

 

I recently posted about this. I've never seen a Kseries in a 6th gen.

I'm 90% sure that no one makes a mount kit for them. Even in the 7th gen civics, you have to use the entire subframe from the RSX/Si to get it to fit.

Not worth it imho.

 

oh man, thats hell to pass up though.

 

take the engine, sell it for more, then buy a nice swap that will fit your car.

 

you're damn right.

 

the new honda tuning mag has a pic of k mounts in a 6th gen due for production


i could be wrong..
