they were custom. Remember he did the swap before there was even a kit. He had all his stuff welded up.

Thats right! The swap was done back in 98 and no mounts were available that I know of.
I'm choosing to do it with placeracing this time (the right way) :wave:

Thanks Bob! I've been able to salvage everything, minus front bumper, rear bumper, hood, front fenders, left doors and a few lights here and there.
I've tranfered my steering wheel and most of my internal stuff like indiglo gauges, radio and so on.... :)

Sweet, it just goes to show that 3Gs don't die, they just get resurrected into other 3Gs :D.

What are you planning to do with the engine/tranny etc. that is currently in the sedan?

Well, they look completely straight, looks like there was no trim there ever, is that right? or is that picture right there just hard to tell the trim?

Oldschool, I bet you any money that your neighbors kind of laugh at you. They see your crashed car, and on their way out to their own cars they see you modding the same car, the same exact way after you wrecked the first one. haha.

Slap some paint on it and your ready to roll!

It's because his VTEC Accord ( :p ) was all white with shaved mouldings and such....He just swapped the white mirrors and door things that you are talking about to the PRETEC Accord ( :) ) that he has now....



P.S. OSS, fuck the paint and get the B16 in the damn thing!!! :flip:

Getting there again, did you have to replace any of the rims? I am so paranoid about getting in an accident because people do dumb crap all the time (for example some guy almost ran right into my drivers door when i was taking a left onto a side street. He wasnt looking and came very close). Some days if i was only in my other accord i would just wack these people. But i know your accident wasnt because of that......glad to see your making good progress....

Hey OldSchool, you selling those Civic rims? I have some just like that on my car, but they're pretty beat up. Plus they don't have the "H" in the middle. Anyway, are you selling them?

Looks Gewd Juan!! How did u manage to save the rims from the crash? Just wondering since u hit a pot hole if I am correct!! Did U have to fix the rim ?? And if u did, how much?? Also are u planning on adding something new!! Meaning something OldSchoolSwap #1 did not have???http://images.bravenet.com/brpics/smilie/18_crazy.gif

Hey OSS, ive gotta question. Ok how hard was it to swap the B16A into the car? What did you run in a 1/4? Have you ever raced an Civic Si? If so, did you win? & about how much whould i be looking to spend for the complete setup? Im trying to decide if i want a B16A, B18C (not the GSR motor), or a B20B that already comes with a VTEC. Any info that you can provide me with please do, becuz im trying to figure out if i should just get an all new stock motor or a complete swap.
