JDM/K20 swap - project car
This is an ongoing project, which I will be updating as things are accomplished.
Bookmark http://www.k20hondafit.com for the latest updates.
Tim from http://www.innovativemounts.com is on board for this project. He will be fabricating the new engine mounts - which will be available soon after the engine swap is completed.

Password JDM will be coming out with their respected line of chassis strengthening parts.
Special thanks to Norman from http://www.n1motoring.com who sourced the Honda Jazz sport front-end swap from Japan. They import all kinds of special JDM engines and accessories.
The engine is still stock at this time, I am just looking for the right k20 engine before proceeding.
There is finish work to do on the hood, side skirts, and headlights (which are now Honda OEM HID!), and paint of course.
The JDM swap is not that difficult. I used the USDM radiator support like those before me. I opted for hood clips instead of messing with the radiator support and hood latch relocation. It will be swapped for carbon fiber once the k20 is installed to save weight up front anyways.
Feel free to PM me any questions you have about how to get the parts or any technical questions.
For more information about how to do this k20 or JDM swap,
or if you need to source the parts to do this project yourself: http://www.k20hondafit.com, and email me at raze_zorb@hotmail.com, or PM me on here and I will be happy to answer your questions.

I am scheduled to go under the mechanic's knife at Innovative Mounts the first week of september. During the operation I will be updating this thread with install pics and my web page as much as possible. It is their policy to take lots of pictures during the installation so that is good for us.
