Sorry its been so long guys, I know some of you will have mixed feelings about this swap but I've built my car for myself and decided to go with the f20c swap.
I pretty much went into this swap with no real knowledge on hybrid swaps and so far have done the swap in driveways, friends barn and in the parking lot at my apartment with a basic set of harbor freight tools haha
I guess if you really want something done you will make it happen no matter where you're at or what you have. Heres the progress so far guys. Enjoy!



Pulled my baby out. The rings in the trusty 4age engine were pretty worn. Engine went back to my buddy (the original owner) for the love that it needs.





Time to start working on modifying the subframe for oil pan clearance. I'm using the shittiest flux core welder.

driveway life. time for install I used the JSP FAB mount kit. 10/10 kit! worked beautifully also using cusco 4age mounts

[justinleexxx]

cut the shifter hole out for clearance.



awesome fitment with the stock center console

[justinleexxx]

Fuel line and filter I made using -6 an fittings and a straight through style filter



Braided clutch line





Started on the wiring spaghetti mess. Wiring was really simple. I was way too intimidated at first.



SUCCESS!! finished at night in my apartments car port haha



Starts and runs good. I need a driveshaft and exhaust

I just rebuilt my 20 valve and as much as it pains me to say it, I wish I had gone this route. I wouldn't apologize to the purists, They're always gonna hate but it's your car and your style. I'm looking forward to seeing this complete and hear your thoughts on the swap! You may be the inspiration I need to do the swap in mine haa

People dislike the F20 swap? I thought that everyone generally agreed that it made sense as a swap.
