Yeah, that's an OEM lip. Unless you didn't but a real one, then you might need to do a lil work to bolt it up right.

i cant wait to order my sir lip after winter, but im going ebay. i dont have funds to buy an oem lip and destroy it right away. And if its not getting destroyed, im not low enough.

i cant believe your tires dont rub! must be nice, i cant turn my wheel at all without rubbing, with the wheel straight the driver side will hold my key between the fender and passenger side will hold paper

NOW GET THIS K SWAP IN

Tune up, nothing really. Fresh oil was put in it, and I cleaned the original air filter. The motor is pretty good. I'm sure it could use some spark plugs but its not needed at the moment.

Lug nuts are Muteki sr48 open ended Neo chrome.


Cracked my fake ass front bumper Saturday at my friends ranch. Oh well. I didn't like the fitment it had anyway. I think I'll leave it as is for awhile since its not that bad. K parts will stay bring collected after Christmas. Hopefully I can scoop together 1500 bucks real quick for a Tsx longblock before someone else does.

Haha. My wife thinks I should finish up the suspension first lol. There's so much that I want to do though so it will be done over time. I am really focused on the motor and swap parts (which is going to cost me a bit because I don't want used parts and I won't make my own wiring or fuel lines)

a question??
you going to k or b motor swap, im just asking ok lol
K swap for sure. After seeing all the big time track and hard parkers dropping their B's to go K, i figured there must be a reason. I dont see any k swap people complaining.


oh and concerning price.....check this out.
2012 brand new from Honda cylinder head and block from the new K24 Si. Not as expensive as it seems.

What does a B series or H i guess head, comparable to that one go for? Seems affordable. Child, you doing the swap yourself?

B series EM1 (Si) head (brand new from honda) at the discounted price is around $2000 and a lil bit more over 2 grand for the block. s**t is bass-ackwards. Yeah i'll be doing the swap myself. Thats the main reason i want everything as new and user friendly as possible.
