MM seeing that it is your first swap i wouldnt look into doing a k unless you plan on paying someone to do it for you. Id do something that will drop right in without madifacations like a JDM D15B perhaps 130hp for 400 isnt a bad deal to me

I was just thinking guys, if i get a TSX from auction which the exterior is all damaged and the motor and all that would be in good condition, what could i use from the tsx for the swap? and the entire car would be about 3gs what else would i need,?could i for now just put the entire motor in with im guessing a rsx tranny, and leave it like that till i get more money?

Only thing with that is the newer tsx will never go for 3g's nor will the insurance company let it go for that little belive me i've been their it's not in their best interest
pocket wise for a car that even wrecked will sell at auction for 5-10g's

Won a auction for a newer rsx-s and the insurance company wanted atleast 5g's and i won the auction for 3g's but they would not let it go.

Why because they told me its a low milage new car and they would lose alot of money that they paid out if they let it go for anything less then 5g's

But good luck like said before
