I will be looking to sell these mounts pretty soon as im working on rebuild my B20ATurbo. These mounts will be considered brand new if not an upgraded version. I modified them since on mount had a bad erethane mount so i modified all 3 mounts to accept HASPORT inserts which can be changed out for a stiffer insert if desired for racing applications. I went with the street version (62A) *note that the inserts with steel sleeves were $103. Anyone seriously interested please PM me. I decided to sell them prepped for paint so whoever buys them can pick a color and weld them in if they want before paint. So here are the pictures. http://thumb4.webshots.net/t/72/172/2/55/92/2219255920084712684nAYoZW_th.jpg (http://family.webshots.com/photo/2219255920084712684nAYoZW)http://thumb4.webshots.net/t/72/172/8/5/86/2362805860084712684fKIetn_th.jpg (http://family.webshots.com/photo/2362805860084712684fKIetn)[URL=http://family.webshots.com/photo/2844567830084712684RwnfTw]http://thumb4.webshots.net/t/72/172/5/67/83/2844567830084712684RwnfTw_th.jpg[/URL

I was going to but i need funds for the B20A turbo and the more i think about it i should be happy with it once its done and i have a ton more to do before the car is actually done. But i plan to just finish up with the B20A platform and call it a day and actually get to enjoy the car for what it is.

I want to finish this car within the next 1-3 years and move on to somthing else but i will keep this car as a project car of course. My car has been slow going since i built the B20A. I also should have a better income this coming year if and when the economy picks up.

So far i have gotten a lot of PM's but no solid offers and no cash so they will sit unless i get at least what i have into them. Let me know if you want to see what i did incase you might want to convert yours not that you need to.

Im so confused weither to go the route of A20a3 or B20a1, I love the B-Series but it probally isn't smart for such a big conversion to be my first Honda engine swap. I heard good and bad things about both of these. So far I think im going A20a3 because it sounds more logical from my research and also because the B series mounts are impossible to find. But I heard if you want to get performance from the A20a3 its also alot of hassel.

Can someone guide me in the right direction? [also i need to convert to fuel injection, anyone know where to purchase this?]

You don't need B-series mounts for a B20A(1/2/8). These drop right in. The mounts are needed for the other B-series engines (The B20A isn't really considered a B-series engine).

Thank god, okay coz i was pricing the changeover to feul injection and it would be cheaper to buy a whole new engine than get it individual, they said roughly 3,000$ and i said i might as well just drop in the B20 in

Everyone talks about the blueprints when there seems to be a set popping up on rare occassion and no one buys them. The only reason im considering selling mine is to put the money into my B20A turbo but i have had over a dozen PM's if not more since they went up for sale and so far no one with the cash in hand.

As for doing blueprints thats out of the question i put my time and money into the big brake kit and its not worth the hastle. There seems to be a dozen plus Place Racing Kits floating around and they will circulate around until people use them or sit around for future projects.

If i don't sell them soon i will sit on them like all the B20A parts i have laying around until i get my car built the way i want it.

Did you post a price somewhere? You're going to have to expect a bunch of PMs if you don't post a price. Letting people know the cost would definitely cut down on the PMs.

$600 which is $500 for the mounts and $100 for the hasport inserts/hardware!

I see.... The honda world i so complicated compared to my old VW obsession haha

My old baby was a cosmic green 1994 VW Golf lowered to the floor with a VR6 turbo and black porche rims.

It could pin you back in your seat, i loved it.
