    In any case, Sweet project, love it. I might have to stop by next time I'm on a dealer trade to Sac.

      Nice work, glad to see the project. You may want to get a small stockpile of the e21 diff's though, 300 hp on a regular basis will grenade them pretty easily. Either that or retrofit the e30 rear subframe. The medium case e30 lsd's are much cheaper and much stronger. I've got a 3.25 and a 3.73 ready depending on the torque I put out.

          Have you guys thought about doing this for customer's cars? I recently bought an 02 for the sole purpose of doing this swap, I've just been trying to find someone to do the work.

            Yes we can. We typically do the standard e30 swaps that ppl are used to. But can work up a quote for you on the 2002. Let me know what your needs are and requirement.

              We'll I just bought the car so it may be a while before I have the funds to get to do the swap. How much did you get the engine/tranny for? All of the one's I've seen on ebay are around $4k.

                Make sure you get as much as possible with your engine/transmission. What I mean is wiring, cluster, accessories, etc. The extra's will kill you.

                                hater gona hate.:D
                                Sorry bud! No can't do, I don't do research on anything Honda related xD
                                Nobody is hating here man, That's why I said "Good luck with the swap" :giggle:
