    When you have the blue painters tape in the engine bay where the bolts went was that so that they didn't scratch the paint when they were installed or something

    When we shaved the bay I put tape over the holes we were using so they didn't get welded by mistake. When you have over 100 holes to weld it helps you remember at a glance which holes to NOT weld. If that makes sense.

    TSX is K. But you can use the CRV chassis components for the AWD. Then you either KSwap or you could do J2K and still use the K AWD transmission using the K to J adapter plate.

    how did you guys find a j series with a manual? or did you buy them seperately or use an adapter baseplate for the bellhousing? I'm very interested in doing a j series swap into my del sol, but they are damn hard to come by with a manual. even just the transmission without the engine is hard to come by.

    All you need to cut is the light and fuel pump wires. Wire them up to the Civic plugs for the front lights, leave the rear harness in the Civic and cut that somewhere around the bottom of the A pillar on driver side to make connections for rear lights and fuel pump.

    Start looking for mount kits that are compatible. Mounts, harness and axles are the main things. But the short answer is yes J35 is another common swap although I think the j35a8 is preferred. Start doing some research on AcuraZine forums

And Hasport from what I've researched has good Mounts. Innovative Mounts are trash. Absolute trash. But yeah bro I'd say go for it. We're working on our 3rd swap rn. Been lacking editing but I have all footage from the 2nd swap and were documenting this one rn too. It's a whole new car after swap fs.
