TS John Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 The secret has been revealed! Can't wait to see the end results, man. My friend just pulled the engine out of his rx7 with a crank and a jump-rope. So I guess anything is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EH6TunerDaniel Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 The swap was $2273.23 and I need to fab up a linkage and I need a timing belt side mount. I should be able to send out the parts monday man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airjordan223 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 you know how many miles on the motor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90IntegraC1 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 how do you fab up a linkage? why didn't it come with shift linkage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GsrCrx Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 how do you fab up a linkage? why didn't it come with shift linkage? Cut/Weld/Bend the existing one.. I can cut an LS integra linkage like 2 and a quarter inches and its a direct bolt on to the crx... I think... Its something like that tho... Yay for swaps... a buddy of mine just picked up a B16 for his hatch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EH6TunerDaniel Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 Supposed to have like 50,000 miles on it. Cut and weld linkage to the right length.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS John Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 That seems like a lot of money for a swap. I'm hoping to get around that for my entire car! This is why I won't miss the tuner scene once I have the sol I'm keeping stock for a while. By the way, I was going to tell you about this thread: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1903858 But it seems you already know about it, haha.

EH6TunerDaniel Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 Yeah, I think Im just going to buy his shift linkage. The swap was worth it for me, since I kinda needed, kinda wanted a new motor to play with. I have plans for it, but dont really want to go into detail just yet, since it will pretty far off in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EH6TunerDaniel Posted March 5, 2007 Author Share Posted March 5, 2007 More progress pics. Picked up the cherrypicker about 4:00 today. pulled the old motor out, did my manual steering rack conversion, and the bay is pretty much ready for the new motor. I found out I also need an integra timing belt side bracket, so I didnt get to put the new one in yet. My buddy keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 You should clean the bay while you can. Let me know about shipping the trans to 23454. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EH6TunerDaniel Posted March 5, 2007 Author Share Posted March 5, 2007 I plan to clean it, Im going to try to get a pressure washer. I need to find a way to ship the trans, when I do Ill call and ask for a shipping quote and let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Word. I was hoping I wouldn't have to clean it lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EH6TunerDaniel Posted March 5, 2007 Author Share Posted March 5, 2007 Yeah, the back of it is covered in cv grease from a broken boot. I had a lifetime warranty on the boot and got $$$ back for it! Ill see what I can do to get it as clean as possible. Also, this more than likely wont happen, but I do have a lifetime warranty on the trans as well (purchased through auto zone). I am going to call and see if I can get a cash refund for it (I paid $700), but if not, Its going to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 No doubt man. I'll probably pressure wash it and paint it before it goes in. Give it the high head bright silver so it looks clean and factory. It doesn't look painted, just damn clean lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
