Default Some Advice!!!

I have a 93 EG with a B18C1 Swap. Car runs great but now i got a K20A2(Rsx Type S) swap I got everything for the swap computer,key,accord shifter,rsx radiator, etc! Plus my boy knows how to do the swap! What do you guys think should i swap the K20 or just keep the GS-R? Does anybody have any feedback or knows anybody who has done the swap? or websites that talk or show how to do the swap?!!??

go ahead if the swap is garunteed successful. the K20 has more hp and torque right away.

I would sell the k20 and put that 5000 towards a nice built motor (-2000) and a nice turbo setup (-3000)


You'd be happier and have a much much faster car

this is a tough one. Hasport has a DC2 with a JRSCd K20a that they are kicking ass with. but the car isnt a daily driver. This I do know. since the K20 spins the opposite way, (the right way) you cant have power steering. im not sure about the A/C either dont quote me on that I think you can not sure. In the end who knows what kind of vibration you might encounter after the swap is done. You might actually hate driving the car.
personally I wouldnt do it. If you really want a k series Id just hold out for a DC5 or EP3 these cars were designed for the K20 and use that as your base. thats my $0.2
