K-series swap civic, good choice for a DD?
#16
i've seen this civic before... very nice...
now as far a DD as long as you don't make it hot boy that you got a k swap thiefs wont bother you... BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THEFT...
reliability is not an issue... these motors take EVERYTHING... motor... nos... turbo...
stock k20a2 can take 40psi before blowing up and even then it's just head come off...
as far as vibrations it depends on the mounts... get some avid 62a and you'll be fine...
enjoy your self... and remember always K all DAY... lol...

Thanks guys, I love the stock look of the car as well. The owner put the catylitic conv. back on for me, carpeting is going back in as well. I will enjoy telling people its powered by a stock D series motor, thanks "WW04" for the tip LOL
I am really stoked on this car I can't wait to get behind the wheel of it.

Thanks for letting me know about those motor mounts. So you saw the car run?

I've never owned a honda, but a few of my friends have. I could definitely see myself buying a K-swap honda for a daily driver. I think it would be a really fun car that's actually pretty quick but reliable at the same time.
I think you made a good purchase, good luck with the car.

Thats a clean EK. I would pick it up. Just like everyone else said get lo-jack and an alarm. I would get the Python 990. Has 2 way pager with 1-Mile radius. Plus you can add a tilt sensor, glass break sensor, motion sensor, and a back up battery/siren.
