It looks to be a job compared to a Honda/Acura.There is alot of cluttering going on w/a dsm bay it seems.

:eek:

93 gs was my first import car that got me into the scene... I don't think there were as many wires as the gsx, but there were a heck of a lot of them... still wish I had the 93... 245,000 on original motor and tranny until my bro totalled it...

Because it is a detail that is usually over looked, or people don't want to take the time to do it even if they want to have it done. It just makes everything look cleaner and shows that more detail was paid attention to.

dam it looks tight but the bad thing is there are hardly any parts for a j swap. and the weight ratio isnt to good. i wanted to do this swap but went another way. but badass wire tuck

that 3.2 is a sorry motor

The 3.0 out of a newer Accord is nasty and the 3.5 in the 08 Accord is even nastier. If I can figure out how hard and how much money it is to put in my car and it's not too ridiculous then I want to do it.

well think about this a k-series will run u at least 6 to 7 thousand. if u do every labor your self. a j motor is cheap what not cheap is the 6 speed tranny. then the mount run i think 800 dollars.

actually the 3.2 is a great motor. only if you get the type s motors, and the new j30a4 in the 7th gen accord is more underpowered the the 3.2. and really the j35 out of the new tl type s is pretty decent as well as the accord

Well the 3.2 out the older tl's is sorry to me

I have driven multiple 09 V6 accords and IMO that would be the ultimate Honda swap. Things are sick!!

You can wire tuck anything. It just all depends how deep in you want to go. Im looking to do my girlfriends 02 wrx when Im out of school and may do my friends 2006 evo MR. Just have to get creative sometimes.

i agree with you, the older TL motor is garbage my sis had one and my 3.0 accord pulls on it. BUT the type s in the 03 tl with 6 speed is faster then the 7th gen j30a4. but yes the new accords are pretty damn quick, and if i could make it work i would swap the j35 out of the 08 tl type s or accord, but wont work in my car.
