    it has been discusses million times.
    so here is for the next 100001 time:
    1. engine mounts, totaly custom. learn how to weld and have a lot of patience.
    2. engine harness, totaly custom. learn electrical and do your own work.
    3. axels, some people have been suscessful with using stock axels but with diff outer joints.
    4. exhaust, custom.
    5. shifter linkage custom all the way.
    that should cover it.
    Alex.

    Re: thinking of swappin

    well im contacting a few people who know how to weld, so i have a few questions before i can make this happen...
    -if using the integra harness, what would i need to keep on the accord electrical wise? i know that sounds like a vague question lol but i guess what would be left out of the integra harness that i would still need to hook up with the accords, etc?

    -why isn't the integra shift linkage compatible? does it bend the wrong way or something? i've never seen the accord linkage and teg linkage compared to know what im tryin to achieve.

    im shooting for keeping the stock teg axles so i'm gonna try and get this thing lined up according to them being in place.
