Hey all,
I have done several h swap/builds into 6th gens and have recently jumped on the J bandwagon:
Here's what I got so far.
03 Acura CL type S 6 speed (full car)
05 Acura RL J35A8 motor
01 4 cyl Coupe (for body & interior parts)
Orginally, I was thinking to do a 3.5 build for my 03 acura CL-S, but it has a few drawbacks that are making me consider buying a 3.0 AT body & doing a J32A2/J35A8 hybrid swap.
#1 the CLS MT won't bolt up to the J35A8 motor as a direct drop in.
#2 The CLS is heavier than a CG
#3 Replacement body parts are high priced or hard to find.
Questions:
What major obstacles should I expect, aside from wiring?
Is anyone running full standalone, besides AEM EMS 2?
What headers, are you using?
