For the most part you're correct, except for the exhaust. But you will need a custom header for the swap, because the stock RSX header won't bolt to the stock exhaust.
Yeah but that 6spd would be pretty cool to have for the GSR swap, but with the K20 swap im lookin to spend almost 6 for the swap cause of the header I have to buy mounts, and axles. I just added up the cost for the needed parts, it would cost about $1635.00, and I dont know how much the Type S swap is, i've heard it ranges from 3300.00 to 6500.00 max. are those prices correct?brian g said:
Alright, I'll check into that, but whats the hp gain for Intake and Exhaust on the Type S, I hear its like 10-12hp for the Intake and no to sure on exhaust.nikos said:
Well my think is Im a really big fan of Forced Induction, I also seen articles on the Type S hittin like 275whp at 6.5psi with turbo, and I hear Type R motors arent that good for Turboing, but the Type R swaps are too high priced for me, but I know the USDM Type S comes 200bhp and 180whp with a 6spd tranny with LSD...but whats a good place besides Ebay to get the swap for a good CHEAP price?nikos said:
That was me 8) . See, it has 9800 miles on it, full interior, no blown airbags, full suspension and it came with an AEM CAI, an exhaust and some sound system equipment. All mint! Lord knows I'm happy and enthusiastic. I'd definately recommend eBay for finding the swaps for cheap, just make sure you call the company selling it (them) and talk em down before payingnikos said:
.Hey man Congrads on the lucky break, I wish I could get one like that lol, but at first I was gonna do the k20a2 swap, and still might..but my pops was talking me into gettin a 02 RSX type S and since he liked the Celica GTS I had he thought about how much the RSX would look like the GTS Celica with the Type R sides, the Type R wing, and the Greddy front lip. so now Im confused.. either get the Civic ek coupe with a 2400lbs body with a k20 or go RSX :?Archidictus said:That was me 8) .
