well the driver side mount didn't even sit flush with the frame rail, so that was common sense, and the bottom motor mount was rubbing the steering rack, when we fitted the motor.

I use to have the silver tsx on rpf1's last year at check point two going to import alliance, threw a rod. Now I have a silver Ge8.
[IMG][/IMG]

 

ok yea now i think i remember... it was a slammed tsx right?

 

damn you dont play around. I just have to say... I LOVE your valve cover and fuel rail!

 

Yeah it was decently slammed

 

Question for you glockbag. Who did you talk to at hybrid racing about your fuel lines. I need a set myself for my k swap. Just wondering what exactly you ordered? Thanks.

 

Spoke with Tim Schultz, and i asked for the EP3 tucked fuel line kit.

 

DAY 5 i think
The harness came in so the engine bay got messy real quick.

hey glock what harness did hasport send you. did you go dual ecu with kpro? Im going to run a tsx ecu with element or tsx harness depends which fits better. was wondering if you got the same thing? I am suppose to get my harness sometime this week or next.

 

Great build thread and good job on the updates. Looks like your project is moving along - I'm staying tuned for more.

 

I know the car is not moving at the moment, but you aren't going to mount your front wheels the same way are you when completed, right? Looks like right and left are reversed up above. Unless my eyes are playing tricks on me.

AWESOME BUILD!!!

 

oh so ur the other guy doing the swap, Brian was talking about he was working on a single ecu setup for some guy, which must be you! Well i couldn't wait any longer for Brian to figure out a single ecu setup, so i went with the traditional dual ecu setup, which is a pain in the ass, since you don't get any instructions from hasport or hondata.

I actually fired her up last night, but theres a lot to still fix since hasport didn't really give me the correct harness, so im left with repinning connectors. Not fun when you pay big money, and still have to modify, and troubleshoot.

 

God damn! I know I dint do my swap my self but maybe I was better off getting the universal K-tuned harness and a Stand alone.

 

It is my dream to someday (not in the near future) swap a K20Z3. After working for Honda for two years I have really come to love the performance and sound of the K20Z3 and I also love the versatility of my Fit. So in my opinion it is a perfect combination!

Your build looks fantastic! I can't wait to see more progress and the final results!

 

Thanks! And yea i think they are but i just through them on since i still need to raise my suspension up 2 inches to make clearance for the oil pan
