Engine swap kit

[sinisterfuzzy]

hey guys, if i got this right here http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/pts/177525921.html would that be just about everything i'd need? Besides engine and tranny of course..

[MessyHonda]

good find...if anyone wants them i can go pick them up and ship to you.

[Cheeseburger]

sweet mother of god yes!!!! wow! sweet find!

[B16KILLA]

sweet mother of god yes!!!! wow! sweet find!

took the words right outta my keyboard. Mother of God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I had $500 to blow I'd have a swap done by the end of the summer.

[AccordRacing21]

Someone buy it and have those mounts copied!!!

[gfrg88]

go get them for me, ill even give you a little extra something ;)

[snoopyloopy]

make sure you get copies made of them or at least the drawings done on them. i'd pay you for just the drawings to get my own set made in the future.

[Legend_master]

it cost just as much to have drawings made as it dose to buy the mounts. I looked into it and they wanted $500.00 for drawings :violin: .

[SteveDX89]

Man, you could of got those no problem. Now you'll have a bunch of peeps to compete against to get them now.

[sinisterfuzzy]

eh it doesn't really matter i can't afford it anyway... if anyone doesn't end up getting it i could get it but w/e... but if anyone can get copies of those mounts made that'd be sweet too.

ya but this would put an end to mount issues if i wasent getting my own place at the end of the mounth id be on this like white on rice

[EducatedFool]

someone PLEASE copy these things. i need some more motivation to swap a CRV B20 into a 3g.

[Cheeseburger]

be honest guys who's thinking about getting them. i am. i have the money. I'm waiting for a response back from the guy

[EducatedFool]

planning on copying them? PLEASE say you are

[AccordRacing21]

If you copy them I am definately down for a set of them! Please please please have them copied, it would be the biggest advancement for 3gs in years!!!

[ghettogeddy]

or at least talk to a shop and see if they will copy them

[ICEMAN707]

it's not hard to cut out manila folder cardboard templates out of them. once you are done cutting out the shapes, trace them out on paper and there you go, there's your blueprints. no need for measurements since they are actual size. someone charging you $500 to make the blueprints is definitely ripping you off!

the tubing part where the rubber bushing inserts go is easy, just cut or a rectangular piece cardboard and roll it up end to end into a ring about the same diameter, OR just get a piece of PVC pipe from Home Depot that's about the same diameter (i believe it's about a 3-3.5" pipe)

[crazykamper]

^ what he said, theres no point in having someone draw something for you for 500$, just do carboard style. lol.

nice find though btw!!

wish i had $$ to do a b swap in my car!

[2drSE-i]

my god i wish i had 500 bucks...my friend with the machine shop would definately love this opportunity.

[ZackieDarko]

Get These Sums Of Bitches Copied

[snoopyloopy]

it cost just as much to have drawings made as it dose to buy the mounts. I looked into it and they wanted $500.00 for drawings :violin: .
if i had the money i'd buy them and get them copied. i know i could sell the plans to people or even get them manufactured myself and at least break even on the $500 copying fee. but iceman's plan is much easier and cheaper anyway. but definitely get specs on those axles.

[crazykamper]

be sure to get them before someone that dont know about 3geez gets them, or some gay reseller that sells things for 4times what he buys them for gets them....

[Hash_man_Se_i]

Good luck on that cheeseburger, i'd love to see you get those. Thats a smokin deal on the mounts. I paid much more then that for mine.

And to everyone who keeps saying buy them and copy them, I see that everytime a set of these comes up for sale, if you want them so bad, then buy them. These are damn cheap too.

[EducatedFool]

people are like that because they're not expecting something like this to come along, therefore, haven't had time to save up money. i know that's the case with me.... plus, i'm moving.... and i won't have another 3g until after i move and have time to save. but if someone can copy these mounts and axles, a swap will definitly be in my future :D

[ZackieDarko]

i would pay good money for a copy of these axles and more importantly MOUNTS

i would if school were cheaper. and gas were cheaper. and school books were cheaper. but i have save money for all of those things which are more important than mounts. however, if i know that mounts are available, then i'll budget money for them too.

[gfrg88]

abraham!!!! pleaze get them!!!!!!!

[Busted_Blue]

i wish i could've found a set when I had my accord. That was my dream before placeracing went bankrupt. Hope mr abraham gets the shit so i can see the car all B powered.

[3gn86lxi]

So, Abe....have you heard from the guy??

[Cheeseburger]

no not yet! and its driving me crazy that i cant go to sleep! i have the money ready to be sent! :Owned:

[sinisterfuzzy]

hey guys, if you buy them, my dad has all the CAD shit and has built his own mounts, if you sent them to us, he could deffinately make up some FREE blueprints.

[Cheeseburger]

that be so cool bro. all we have to do now is wait for him to get back at me.

[ZackieDarko]

if SOMEBODY buys these i will buy AT LEAST one set from them if they get them copied

[gfrg88]

i will buy two sets, a b18 built turbo, and crvtev :D

[ZackieDarko]

i was thinking cr v-tec too..but i was kinda thinken get'en a B20 bored out to a B22 or B23 even

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE SOMEBODY BUY THESE AND GET THEM COPIED

[Cheeseburger]

still nothing for this guy:crying: :thumbdn:

[crazykamper]

come on!! someone PLEASE get them!! im begging you!! PLEASE

[Cheeseburger]

WANTED lol...

[Legend_master]

if you guys jsut buy the mounts, the axles are easy.

[ghettogeddy]

i wounder if hes selling the moter that the one is conected to as well

[Cheeseburger]

ya thats what i was thinking. but the only thing i would want to get from him is the mounts and axles

[MessyHonda]

yeah he did not get back maybe next time....hope you get them...im going to LA on the 22nd and i can pick them up for you so he does not ship

[Cheeseburger]

i have been looking on ebay, accordtuner.com, honda-tech.com. im thinking he might have place an add in a different place so if u guys see it please let me know.
i still have not looked a norcaltuners.com, and other forums.

[AccordRacing21]

If you guys find these and nobody else is gonna buy them let me know and I'll get get them and take the proper steps to having them copied.

LOL I am just messing with you. It took me 1 1/2 years from the point I bought the mounts to the point I put the motor in (but I bought the mounts before I even owned the car :) )

[Justin86]

damn looks like they are no longer for sale, I would have got them.

[Cheeseburger]

those are mine lol leave them alone! lol...:violin:

[ZackieDarko]

so did somebody get these or what?

[Cheeseburger]

nope........

[AccordRacing21]

What is the status? I have a burnt valve and want to go B-Series swap.

[sinisterfuzzy]

i'd kill to get these mounts... hopefully cheeseburger finds them and buys them get them copied.

[leem]

Damn cheezeburger, i must get a copy, i already have a b16b(ctr) waiting to be dropped in my 88 accord hatch, I have been looking for mounts for a good month now. I am really interested in buying blueprints or an extra set if you can get them

[ZackieDarko]

why doesnt SOMEBODY who has these ALREADY or has a set that THEY MADE and get them copied???

i dont think that the 3rd gen lub mounts fit our 3rd gen accord..

[snoopyloopy]

they don't since their engine is on tilt toward the firewall and ours is away. but they may be moddable to fit our cars.

[sinisterfuzzy]

couldn't we do something like they did on prelude power get a minimum of people and have some built?

yeah this will benift ppl that have fuel injection already....not alot of ppl have Lx-i's or Se-i's since most ppl in the late 80's just wanted something cheap...so we have more Dx's and Lx's....i was thinking about it and i came up that its cheaper to buy a LX-i then to try to convert your carb to fuel injection...i knoe some ppl here have done it but they are good with cars(or a manual book) i think a built A20 would put out a decent amount of power maybe 150hp? plus like some ppl say you can find a A20 almost in every junkyard...

talk to rjudgey about the power potential of the a20. i think he got 180 or is planning to get 180 out of one of his. i don't remember if it's carb or not, though. 150 isn't that hard to reach, especially if you convert to obd-1. full intake + exhaust (cai, b16 im, and port-back exhaust) should get you near that amount. then by time you do a valve job (maybe get bigger ones while you're at it), get some cams, and bore it out, you could probably coax 170 or so out of it and still have it streetable. that's a pretty good amount of power in a car weighing in at less than the em1. (if you have an lx-i sedan or a hatch. i can't remember how heavy the coupes are.)

yeah but even with all thoes mods we would not pass smog...cali is a hard place to mod a car...yeah i was thinking of geting a colt cam but they guy did not have paypal. well this guy is a good example http://www.3geez.com/forum/showthread.php?t=53794
he is selling his car cheap cuz it wont pass smog. i bet his car is around what i said 150HP? i never been on the car but i bet that thing flys even for all thoes miles.

yeah, i know about cali smog because i live here too. smog would be a huge bitch. that's why you keep all the stock parts or just a stock engine to swap in every two years to go get it smogged. could be a better idea than it sounds because when you have it out, you can do some maintenance work on the performance engine. or you find a shop that will conduct a smog test how it really should be done: they test what comes out your tailpipe and overlook everything else.
and i saw that car. i would get it if i didn't have too many cars already.

[Cheeseburger]

Sold!!!!! :D

[MessyHonda]

Sold!!!!! :D

took some time....

[Cheeseburger]

yes but now they are in a good home...

[MessyHonda]

yes but now they are in a good home...

so this kit would work for a b18c3?...the teg type R...i think it makes like 195hp....it would be sleaperish...then you can race Tommy in his b20...lol

[Cheeseburger]

this kit is for any b-swap other then the b20 our cars came with.

[MessyHonda]

well are you going to get them coppied? just in case i win the lotto and put b series engines too all the ppl who came to the meet?

[Cheeseburger]

my first objective is to get them blueprinted.

[mkymonkey]

cool! let me be the first to find out once you have some progress on that

[Cheeseburger]

sure

[snoopyloopy]

oh this is good news, good news indeed. the 3g community might be taking a turn for the better.

[Cheeseburger]

yes sir!!!

[ZackieDarko]

i want a set

how much do you want?

[Cheeseburger]

i couldn't tell u right now because i just got them. I'm looking of the best person who can make the blue prints at a reasonable price. And with that i can pass down the price to you guys :D

[Cheeseburger]

[Cheeseburger]

WOW that's awsome Cheeseburger!

[87lxiaccord]

[3rdgenhatchDX]

Post up some pix all i get is :redx:

[Cheeseburger]

not yet guys, I'm still looking for someone to do it. u guys are going to be the first to know when i start copying them

[gfrg88]

not yet guys, I'm still looking for someone to do it. u guys are going to be the first to know when i start copying them


quick question. do you think you can get in trouble for copying those?? are they copyrighted or something??

[snoopyloopy]

they probably are, but pri is out of business anyway. hence the reason we're having him copy them instead of ordering our own set from pri ourself.

[Cheeseburger]

thats what I'm trying to figure out. since they went out of business I'm not sure. and I'm not sure if they even copyrighted them.

[snoopyloopy]

yeah, but the owners probably still legally own the copyright if there is one. you'll probably have to research that.

[ghettogeddy]

if there copyrighted there should be a patent number on them somewere if it says patient pending then i dont think theres a cop right and if there is as long as your not making a profit of them then it should be fine

[Cheeseburger]

they dont have a patent number on the mount


Post up some pix all i get is :redx:

Just change the mount a slight bit, like a millimeter or so. Then you are not breaking any laws. Plus being they are out of buisness I dont think they will care.

[ZackieDarko]

they would be patented if anything

copyrights are used for printed materials

correct me if im wrong somebody but im pretty sure I am right

[ghettogeddy]

so what company made the axil's cause they say the reman import and domestic

[snoopyloopy]

i think that they're brand new from pri and just in that box. because the paper says they're brand new, not reman. and yeah, they would be patented, not copyrighted. and if they don't have a patent number, they just may not be.

[89l_x_i]

This would be awesome if it came through or when it does come through almost makes me not wanna sell my 3g to keep it and do this.

[snoopyloopy]

check with ramthis. he may want a set also since he wanted to put a b18 in his accord. he may still want to do that now that the possibility of getting a kit is much greater.

[sinisterfuzzy]

just throwin' it out there again, my dad told me he'd make up some prints for free...

[Cheeseburger]

sorry bro i want to do this on my terms

[sinisterfuzzy]

any news?

[MessyHonda]

any news?

calm down...he said he will do the blue prints on his own...me too i would not trust anyone with the last known motor mounts that are new....lol

[sinisterfuzzy]

if he had shipped them to my house, he would know where i live, other people have bought stuff from me on here. and even if i did get the mounts and steal them, i'd probly still need help putting it in and have questions so i would resort to this forum, and i have a feeling you guys wouldn't be too quick to help 'the dude who jacked Cheeseburgers mounts'. I was pretty much just tellin' Cheese if he doesn't want to get totally f*cked for getting some prints made, my dad would make some for free.

[sinisterfuzzy]

just wondering if there was any progress on getting copies of these.

Dude, they will get doen when they get done. I kinda think there is somethign strange going on with cheese right now (possibly a comment made to him). I hope he comes back, but we will just have to wait.

[RamThis]

I hope he does too, he is a good source of information and helped out many folks here, including me.

I would love a set of those mounts too in case one day I wanted to swap in a b18c just for shits and giggles.

Whatchoo talkin bout fool!?!??! hahaha... no way I would sell my mounts, I think you would have to kill me first., I am way too deep in money into my 3g to turn back now.

What I meant is for the blue prints. I could probably get it done if I really wanted too, heck I could probably do them myself in cadd class at school. But he says he'll pay for them... i want b-series 3geez to be unique lol... not to sound like an ass or anything, but this shit cost me a looooot of money.

i like it to be unique too. but if you can help the rest of us out why not? too selfish? that's just a lame statement all around... because where as your car might not be as unique it would definitely be one of the pioneers and there is a lot to be said for that. also it will always be unique because not many people like the 3g accord some in fact think it's quite ugly... my wife being one of them. so if you have a chance to help why not??

[trustnoone7935]

no mounts yet or any up dates?

On today's episode of This Old thread....what ever happened with these mounts?.....the world may never know.

[Cheeseburger]

Wooooo back from the dead! The guy who was going to do the blue prints moved out of state (Arizona) so they never got made. I never got the Mounts back from my dad.... Hmmm I'm going to ask him to give them back lol I completely forgot about him having them lol thanks for the reminder! Lmfao...
