Pics wouldn't load for me but it was only a matter of time. 10G's for a swap is way too expensive though. Damn

Not only is the swap 10k, it says that there's also a 2 month waiting list before they even start working on your car!! That's nuts! With $10,000US, you can almost buy a brand new Civic! lol

Yeah but it won't anywhere near as fast as a Type-S powered Civic. Agreed though, way too expensive right now. Wait 5 years and the swap should cost less than half that much.

well actually one was being sold on eBay at one point..it was going for $12,000 USD just for engine alone!

anyhow, just wait a couple of years...B series would be ...umm..like swapping in D series engine? hehehe j/k But these K swaps are gonna kill the people who dumped money into making their B series fast

I have a 7thgen civic and I think this is amazing.. finally!! HOPE!! Never give up..

But the thing is, currently it costs $10,000USD to do this swap, I would rather just get a RSX.. But I heard that the RSX has tranny problems? anyone know of that?

damn, I posted about this in the performance forum....a lot of custom work had to be done though, and looking at the pics, it's a pure hack job....

since it's the first swap of it's kind ever, it will improve...deffinetly NOT a drop in swap though.
