We just got my brothers RSX type R engine for his 02 SI. It came with everything I could possibly need for the swap. Any one have any info on the 6 speed tranny fix for this?

6-spd trans fix???Didn't it come w/a trans?Hook it up to your 5 or get a 6 out of a RSX type S.

No, its the engines are very diffrent. Although how to do the swap is the same, the swaps themselves are diffrent. Basicly you can compare the two like what we had in 96. We had the GSR but no typeR. In Japan, they had the ITR. Now it is the same thing. The k20a2 has lower compression, less agressive valve springs, cams, ect. then the JDM K20a of the ITR. Also, the k20A'S transmission has an LSD. So no, the RSX-s is not called the ITR over in japan. Thats like saying the USDM 98 GSR = JDM 98spec ITR. There just not the same, and I am not even going into all the diffrences in the chassis, brakes ect. In japan, the JDM ITR comes with brembros, stiffer springs, stiffer shocks, stiffer/bigger antisway bars, has additonal reinforcements in the chassis, the normal ITR body mods and a bunch of other really cool stuff. They are not the same in any way.

engine swap is done and the car is a beast. ecu reprogramming is a pain, because of the differening key codes. swap was really straight foward, with the hardest part being the shifter mod. reverse is in left field, I was really suprised about that. I feel lke ill be hitting peoples knees when shifting into reverse.
