Id be content with an auto J32, especially if i found for cheap. But all these other doods are hounds for 6spd.

Yeah I gotta have a 6spd.lol
My plans are to build this up for along time. I'm gonna supercharge it later on and build the engine. Lots of work = lots of fun.

I dont think MikeyMike was 4cyl before but his build is pretty BOSS. Check it out and see if you cant pick up any ideas.
OR you could just buy my built bottom end, throw some pipping, boost the piss out of it to make a lot more than a j32 (with the right tune) 
F23 when done right is a torque monster!! your torque will porlly never be too far than the hp you make.
boost or nothing!!

How much for your bottom end ? I might be interested.

I've never heard of a 4 to 6 in an accord... Good luck tho man. I am interested in this, however I'd seriously get an H22. I have a J30, I've ridden in H22's and all I have to say is J30 isn't all that equal to the H22, but that whole debate isn't even relevant.
Also remember that the 4cyl uses almost different everything so axles and all that will need to be changed, exhaust brackets, also the 4cyl suspension is not made to carry the v6 as well but hopefully you'll have coil overs or another aftermarket suspension setup.
The swap is definitely doable however the price tag is going to be ridiculous. You will pretty much have to custom fabricate quite a few things in order for mounts, brackets and where parts will be placed. It won't be like swapping a v6 in a v6 car at all and I don't know if you really understand that. There is a reason why there are so little 4cyl to v6 swapped cars and the ones that are around have huge amounts of customizations and 1000's of dollars into theme. I've seen 2 up close and it's ridiculous.

what you should do, is sell your car and buy a V6 coupe.
transfer all your parts that can transfer, and start from there.
I'm almost certain you'd end up *saving* money in the end that way.
