OK I took on a project here....

I purchased a shell and had to find a motor, Tranny, ECU....

Purchased a base RSX K20A3 from local salvage yard.
Found the original tranny for sale in Albany, GA.... How wierd is that?
Purchased an ebay OEM ECU. Also purchased KPro ecu too (Yay!).

Stuff purchased on this and K20A.org site...
PRB manifold
P2R gaskets intake and exhaust
Exedy clutch and OEM flywheel.
Type S Tbody

Put everything together and cranked her up.. She is running well!

sweet, another GA EP owner. Nice find. Little fixer up-er
Was it in a wreck or something? I noticed the i-VTEC DOHC decal raised up a good bit.

I was looking at this EP as well, I just didn't want to jump into a car with no engine and then have so much to work on. I'm glad somebody picked it up that will do something with it, how long are you planning on rocking those wheels?

Are those Depo lights? And if so have they gotten any TLC, look dusty or maybe fogged in the pics.

I was wondering if it was in a wreck too.. the hood looks a little off. And getting the stock grille and new rims definitely helped the look. GL with boost!:mtongue:

Always nice to see a broken down EP go to a good home. How much did you pay for everything?
