damn, should have gotten ahold of me for parts, i could have gotten you alot better deal on the swap harness looks like its coming together, and 100 bucks for windows is a steal, cheapest local company would do for me is 100 a window to take out and 100 to reinstall ☹ ---

Do you have pics with it with them on? I have gr2s with lowering springs and im thinking about getting gc’s … or just ditching the setup all together. depending on budget. are the pics in here with the agx/gc’s ? ---

gr2 are like stock shocks. the car is currently on the agx/gc in those pics, its just not slammed currently which it will be when the car is done. ( ground controls are coilovers) ---

i got bored of all my b series, imo its nothing compared to a k. ever drove a stock type-s? i did a few times and also one that made 240 wheel n/a. now image that kind of reliable power on a car thats weigh much less. theres pro and cons of both. one mostly being the money issue with the k. if i had a eg/dc/ek i would do H2b. ---

> [@deebo](#): > > You think it’s a lot more worth it to do a K series swap over a bseries? depends what you want it for, if you want nice reliable na hp then absolutely, if you want to turbo it, then no na builds hitting 250whp is very easy (even with mostly stock parts) k24’s usually have as much tq as most b series have hp so that makes it really nice to drive it around w/o having to downshift or really beat on the car, and of course 6 speed trans is great (except with high hp known to break alot) so for 200-300whp k\>b for 300-600whp b\>k (only because price) ---

yea the plan would be just a stock swap for now, and then maybe in a year or two build the motor for boost. if i still have it by then… lol I can probably swap in a B for less than 1200 into my eg ---
