Try your local junkyards, or the marketplace section of this forum.

hmm...see you migrated from hondaswap. anyways, jy will have what you want. 3g accords are a plentiful there. many with good motors, but totalled and written off because of being rearended or other such body damage or rust eaten. but with an excellent drivetrain up front. or, for sale section, dude is selling a reworked a20a3 with integ hybrid tranny.

yea thats me i was told to join here that yall would have the info i needed, thanks guys, i was just checking to see if there was a place that sold them before i went and pulled one at the jy. off to the for sale section

[ahhvtec]

i cant seem to find one for sale here

[snoopyloopy]

yeah, there's a wealth of info here about the lost art known as a-series tuning. and besides here or a jy, i see them on ebay on occasion for $500 for the jdm longblock. those would probably be the lowest possible mileage ones you can get nowadays (supposedly around 50k) as most of the jy ones probably have at least 150-200k+ miles on their tickers.

cool i have a local pull a part jy that has about 75 of them so mabe ill get lucky,i would also like to do the digital gauge cluster swap but thats gona be real hard to find and i hear its a pain to wire up

[snoopyloopy]

yeah. and besides, unless it's a really built motor, there's no point in having an a20 shipped when they're so plentiful at the jy. but if you check the for sale thread for the openloop coupe, it's actually now a part out thread which includes the engine as part of that.
