love the lip
CHILD'S *EK* ... finally i have an EK
- Thread starter CHILD
- Start date
nice progress as always
Looking good. What's left to buy after the ECU?
Exhaust (might tune with open header though)
O2 sensor
EG/DC front LCAs
And Alex, K-N-2-EK, is powder coating a EG/DC subframe, front sway bar, and shock forks for me.
Ill pick up misc clamps, jdm zip ties lol, and some wire for my starter. That's it.
so a no bullshit answer, how well does that lip fit, did you have to touch it up or did it sit perfect? ps was it new?
And then engine goes in?
Brand new, I hardly buy used. It fit fit 100% perfect just like my first molding plate did. The mounting part of the lip is very thick and strong too, thicker than First Molding was. The predrilled holes were right on point. I put the hardware through without ever making adjustments and how it sits in the picture is how it came out. I haven't had a single authentic part not fit properly.
Yeah. Gotta get some money together for a tune after that. Although ive seen several people making 220/180 on a tsx .cal hondata provides
cool good o know, ive heard (on the internet) that spoon doesnt always fit right... but it would seem that could be the squeaky wheel getting the grease?
...I saw you plan on changing the front subframe and front control arms to the EG/DC version. Is this required for the K swap, or are you doing it for another reason?
It's not required for a K swap but it's recommend in the 6th gen chassis for a better axle angle, more ground clearance, and more space for intake manifolds other than the PRB (rsx-s intake manifold)
I know you've researched the K-EK swap a lot more than I have... do you know if with the EG/DC subframe and suspension, can you still use the EK steering rack?
No, you need the matching pieces, eg/dc rack with eg/dc subframe.
this is getting to the good bits...
