Bump, trying to have a conversation with you here op. Seems like your dodging me.

[almostJDM]

Because that's exactly what I am doing , j/k I've been busy at work but if I had the oem accord radiator in their is 36" of space but with the one I'm using I will have 35", and if I have to I will put the radiator in the core support to add space

ok, so let me make sure im on the same page you are. You are planning on putting a rb25det(rwd) in a 1990-1993 honda accord chassis? and convertering that chassis from front wheel drive to rear wheel drive????

x2!

man, props for this! but its going to take sooooo much work!! when that guy in HT did his lude RWD im pretty sure he used a old school ford deferential. do you know what your using yet?

[almostJDM]

yes I've known since I posted so but I am using an s14 rear sub frame assembly

On another note my cb blew a tire anywhere between 70 and 35 miles out of town where I am moving it and currently we are 35 miles out of town at a rest area where we stopped to recheck everything since it's on a dolly and we saw the drivers rear was gone except 2" of the inner and outer sidewall and rim is still untouched so we are sitting here waiting my smokey9012's girl to come bring us a tire off his cb

[toycar]

Any progress?

[almostJDM]

no, I wasn't able to head down had some other things to do, but I did buy a welder, plasma cutter and air compressor

Ok I sent you a pm before seeing this thread....but ill put this in here as well

Look into mx83 chassis cressidas for a donor car....I went over the reasons via pm and Im too lazy to type them again here lol

Also...do you have the engine yet?.....1JZ is fairly cheap....can get the whole swap for 2000ish.....or if you piece it together like I did you can get it even cheaper....I got a r154 and 1jz with engine harness for 1600 bucks by piecing it together....that includes brand new OEM PP and clutch.....if you go w58 could be even cheaper

I may be biased a bit though haha.
