k20 swap
 

hey hows it going i'm about to buy a k20 type-r for my ek but i wanted to know what i would need besides what it comes with and also i heard that when doing the swap its hard to get the guages to work is this tru

RE: k20 swap
 

you will need to buy hasport mounts. www.hasport.com

you will need to send your engine wiring harness from the k20, and your stock engine harness to hondata.

you will need to send your k20 ecu to hondata

you will need to modify your axles.

you will need to change your steering rack and put an EG steering rack(92-95 civic)

you will need to buy fuel hoses, and fittings.

and about the gauge cluster, you will need to use your stock one. it will work.

if you were in cali, i could do it for you

why do i need to change the steering rack if on the hybrid racing site it doesnt say anything about it

RE: k20 swap
 

So you can run the HASport EKK2 mount kit, as stated it centers the motor over the wheels better, better axle angle and better oil pan clearance
