is this what i think it is?

[2ndGenGuy]

Yep.

[Edison Carasio]

Ballin'

[2ndGenGuy]

They wanted $250 to ship to my location. So tally that into the cost as well.

[anubix]

i have no cash to buy it.
i hope someone else here does

[carotman]

It has an EGR valve so I guess it's from an Accord.

[1ajs]

:O omg omg 5spd

sorry I feel stupid for asking.

is this a direct bolt in or would you need to replace a bunch of stuff?

*total noob still*

[ShyBoyCA6]

its bolt on i think you just need the mounts anyone can correct me not really into b20

[A18A]

yeah just need the rear mount that bolts to the gearbox / through the block. for some reason, i don't know why, but they always remove those when there really isn't any need to

[AccordB20A]

as long as it has the manual half shaft thing and the rear bracket it will be mint

Get it!

[2ndGenGuy]

Yeah why the hell did they pull off that rear mount? It makes it much easier for shipping. Maybe they put them in really tiny containers or something.

[AccordB20A]

^^if you look on that egay page they show you a pic of their containetrs stacked with motors haha

Useless USA engine importers lol how r u going to get that motor to run with the engine loom lopped off and no mounts

[carotman]

Engine importers always do this. They cut off looms instead of just unpluging them.

I was lucky to get the rear engine bracket with both of my b20as. One is from a lude tough :(

[hammer3rd]

They also have a black top 88-89 for sale.

[Tomisimo]

Carot, Goldtops dont have EGR.

[Tomisimo]

you can use A20a3 Wiring on that Goldtop, its completely the same. the B20a8 have few extra wires, but also the same, plugs are the same as well.

[Nafs Asdf]

Hmm, I've been under the impression that prelude gold tops don't have EGR while the Accord ones do... Don't really know if it's true tho.

[carotman]

That's right. Accord Gold tops do Have EGR. The one on ebay does have an EGR valve.

[Tomisimo]

thats strange, how come my dont have EGR?

[A18A]

probably be a EDM thing

[geej07]

I about bought the gold top but I didn't make as much money at my temp. Job as I thought I would so couldn't afford it :(

[Nafs Asdf]

probably be a EDM thing

We're talking about JDM B20's here. The JDM 2g Prelude gold tops don't have EGR, while the 3g Accords do.

[A18A]

indeed, but i was referring to tomisimo's b20a not having one

[carotman]

Tomissimo's B20A doesn't have an electronic advance distributor either.

I guess EGR wasn't required in some Euro countries.

[Nafs Asdf]

indeed, but i was referring to tomisimo's b20a not having one

Ah, well the B20A2 doesn't have emissions stuff. Mine does however (B20A8).
So yeah you're right, an EDM thing... Depends on the local emissions laws of the country at the time.

[Demon1024]

LOLOLOL
I need a motor
I get 10k in taxes back this year
I'm calling them and see if they'll hold it for 10-15 weeks.....Dam tax system

[Nio]

you can use A20a3 Wiring on that Goldtop, its completely the same. the B20a8 have few extra wires, but also the same, plugs are the same as well.

so pretty much the only thing you need is the back mount, tranny, and that's about it?

[Tomisimo]

jupp. thats about it, even back mount can be used from A20a, just need few mods to it.. thats it

[Nio]

jupp. thats about it, even back mount can be used from A20a, just need few mods to it.. thats it

here is the question though.

Is it worth it.

[2ndGenGuy]

Is it worth it for you for 25-35 more hp?

[A18A]

that's entirely up to you whether it's worth it or not :)

[Nio]

I was just wondering.

Cause I was thinking of just doing turbo on this car. But I don't know yet.

I plan to replace alot of parts. *especially my stupid fuel system.*

but Just wondering.

which would be better for the price, getting the B20, or turbo on the A20?

:D I like to look at my options.

[anubix]

awe nobody bought it

[A18A]

and people wonder why hardly anyone imports stuff for 3g accords lol
