Here is a go at my first post on here. I hope this is the right place to put it at. I suppose it is a tech articlle though. Some of you old timers from HT, and other forums, might remember my car. It has been parked for many years. I've had 2 ZCes in it, a B16, and then a built CTR spec b16. Then I decided I wanted more, and was confused on what I wanted to do with it, and disgustsed with the Honda scene so I parked it for 3 years. This 3 years ago:
After many hours of crunching numbers, and researching and what not I decided on a k20a unit, and a JDM frontend, and a mugen replica front bumper. Below is the sad resting state it had endured for years.
I did manage to fit the frontend up though.
Finally I got it back on the ground and cleaned it up, and it saw daylight for the first time in years. Time to take it out to the shop and get started.
K series mount welded in, and engine bay shave started.

Fabbed up mounts for my EP3 shifter. Dash mount baby. I'm using a buddy club short shifter assembly for the ep3 02-05 si. I have no heat r AC, and I have to find a new spot for my radio, if I put one in.......
I got the drivetran from a fellow CRXer. K20A type-r, Hondata K Pro, DSS stg 1's, DTR Sigma Six Header, setup made 221whp. Here goes the test fit.
And it fits. This is actually the best fitting engine I've ever had in an EF chassis. it is super easy to install, and remove. Which I did, for I have more prep work to do befor I paint, and then install the engine for good. I also have to route all of the new brake lines. I'm doing a wire tuck, and a brake line, prop valve tuck. I should have the rest of the parts, fuel reg, rail, lines, and wire harness, in by next weekend, and I should have the engie bay painted, and the brake system completed. With any luck I might be able to test drive it........
