Awesome to see you made it back here

BlackPearlFIT Jan 24, 2013 02:13 PM

I'm excited to see where this goes, this may hold me back on boosting my car depending on how things go with your swap. Best of luck to you and please keep us updated with pics and progress with this beastly project you have going on!

TPColgett Jan 24, 2013 02:19 PM

Super stoked to see this happen! +rep to another Fit community innovator!

FitStir Jan 24, 2013 02:22 PM

hehehe.. you're back. :vtec:

That was a quick sticky. :D


You still got the AquaClean mirrors on the JDM auto-folds?
How are they functioning with the snow, freezing rain, etc... Can't decide between the AquaCleans or the Canadian Heated mirrors. :wavey:

Wanderer. Jan 24, 2013 02:26 PM

In for the trailblazing, best of luck with this :wavey:

FormulaJDM Jan 24, 2013 06:39 PM

In for epic. :popc:

One thing I would like to highlight for all the other aspiring GE owners that want to swap in the k series or any other motor.. check cocowheat's post history.. going back even 5 or so months there's no "please somebody spoon feed me help and directions! Lolz" type nonsense.

For that I commend you sir. Best of luck and can't wait to see the results!

pig_pit Jan 24, 2013 09:16 PM

K-swap FTW.. ill be watching you. Welcome back btw.

RangerRingor Jan 24, 2013 09:55 PM

He told me he'd sticky it if I did a build thread here (we're on a more local forum as well)

Can't help you on te mirror question though. My fit has never seen winter. Lol aside from it being driven to a buddy's house in a few weeks. I like the aquaclean mirrors though. They're pretty sweet

Just wanted to be more like you boss ;) although I would thank a lot of guys at 8th gen. Civic, CRZ forum, and obviously k20a.org for a shit ton of info about electrical and ect.

Hmmm... 1st USDM GE8 K-swap... it deserves the sticky... :vtec: :vtec: :vtec: :hyper:

You mentioned it before... briefly, but actions speak louder than words, and your pics are worth a thousand words. Congrats, buddy! You're on the way.

Looking forwards to this epic build. :wavey:

There has been so many GE guys talking about if only a company made this part or when this happens I will K swap but none of them where stepping up and getting anything done. Cocowheat stepped up and is getting it done.

FitStir Jan 25, 2013 01:40 PM

^^^ I agree 100%.... :vtec:

t.schultz Jan 25, 2013 05:02 PM

And kudos to him. If I would've won the 66 mil tonight, I would do it, too. Without it though, I don't have the time, money or know-how.

I'm really looking forward to the progress.
