      Hope you are changing that intake manifold. Let me know when you need a hand and I'll run through a few things with you!

      I will be using my RRC intake manifold. It will be a k20 top and k24 bottom end. I wont be transplanting the whole k24 in. At this stage I've still got alot of questions, and will need to do my own research. You mentioned in your build blog, that you have the tsx manual? Would you be so kind to somehow forward it to me. I'm not sure whether its possible by email as there is a limit on attachments but you could try. My email is normy_@hotmail.com.

      But Robi, when the time comes i'll give you a message. I still need to take the engine out of the donor car and put the engine on a stand a strip it. I will most likely be rebuilding all the internals.

      Yeh it is . My partner and I have agreed that we will be keeping the car for awhile and hence why we considered building an engine when the time my k20 fails (Even though it has very little km's on it atm, the DC5 will turn into my daily one day)

        Hi Norm,

        I've sent you an email with all the paper work I had from my build. It includes:
        - RSX manuals
        - TSX manuals
        - Parts needed for putting a K24 into a DC5.

        If you've got any questions, let me know.

          Hey Robbi, do you think you can send me the same email? I'm thinking along the same lines as Norm with the swap.

                    Rims have arrived and have been picked up by my good friend!















                    Specs. Work Kiwami - Matt Black, 18inch 10.5 width +23 offset. And Alex, I do have a sweet spot for the cr-kai design, but these are alot more concave and aggressive than my original ones. Weight is 10.3kg's from a 22.8 lbs conversion.

                    More info can be found on http://www.work-wheels.net/products/...=7&Item_id=126

                      Kiwami's are so nice, and I am assuming 10.5 width, since it says 0.5 width ? What are your tyre specs you gonna run and what tyres ?

                        Yeh its meant to say 10.5, thanks for picking up the typo. The tyres will be the Toyo R1R's, and they will be 265/35/18's. It was something I could get less than 1k through tirerack.com even though I did opt to get the AD08's but got told they can't sell any Yoko's to Aus. Its just something to spirited driving and occasional tuning day in the meantime. I haven't decided whether I want to go all out and push it to its limits on a track. The maintenance is not cheap.

                          Wow I've never seen those before. The concave is epic!
