not rly many benifits with it besides being able to change the gears when you want.. i can live with automatic untill i get a project car.. and i wouldnt know where to start.. and i cant do a swap myself, i have NO experience whatsoever.. and it would prolly cost a **** load of cash to have it done

Well, since my brothers swap in 3 weeks, ill try to take as many pic's i can for you to give you some idea on it, and on the plus side, the shop is useing there own mounts and give the motor a nice drop for where it just sits under the hood.
This motor and trans combo is running about $1500.00, and thats 260hp....not that bad.

About the 5 lug conversion, its a pain in the butt to put this together, but its nice once all together.
I had a pic of a 99 coupe with S2K wheels (ap1), but i cant find it.
All i have is a ITR.
Again, because the S2K has a lug pattern of Front: 16" x 6.5", +55 offset, it will fit, but its the offset in the rear that will get you, only the front will clear, the rear are to aggressive, Rear: 16" x 7.5", +65 offset.
I plan on getting set up sometime this year.


The headlight, just my 2 cents, i saw this pic and i feel its just to sick.
The lights are from a Q45.

What are you doing with the old civic and cx badge? I might be interested in picking them up from you when I have a little money if they're still in good condition.

Btw, I've looked into the s2k cluster mod and it sounds like a bish to customize in, and you have to get a new speed sensor and last I heard the company making them stopped.

It would be pretty sick to drop a J32 into a hatch, it's been a idea thats been rolling around in my head but I haven't had the funds or time to do it. Possibly in the future!

Good luck with list!

@nike: When i get oems.. prolly sometime this summer
@Magic: Probably keeping them because when i get rid of the car in the future, i kinda wanna keep everything so i can put it all back to stock and sell it like that then sell the other stuff seperate that way i get more money back lol.. their kinda faded and chipped anyhow, ur best bet would be ebay, im sure their cheap
