Alright guys ive been on here the past month talkin about this swap waitin on my engine and parts. I ordered the b16a complete swap from www.jdmcustoms.com (http://www.jdmcustoms.com) around May 1st and it took them over two weeks to ship me my motor and ecu. They also sent me the axles but forgot the intermediate shaft. I've called this company about a million times during this whole month in regards to not getting my tracking number for the motor and parts. When i called them a few weeks ago to let them know some of my parts werent here they said they had forgot to send them and i was in shock because they should have had an invoice. Idiots!! I called them two days ago to let them know my mounts, int. shaft, and shift linkage were still not here. They said they would call me back yesterday with my tracking numbers after previously saying they couldnt get them. They also told me my shift linkage was on back order. Why didnt they tell me this earlier!!! But no one called me so i left them a very pissed off message.
Today we called the credit card company to dispute the charges and im having a really hard time. This swap shouldve taken me two weekends at the most and now im out more money from not bein able to work as many hours. I'm goin to bonnaroo next week and i was supposed to be driving down cuz my friends car doesnt work half the time so now were both fucked and tryin get a ride. Im gonna try to rent a car but i dont want to spend the money. I just dont want anyone else goin thru this company cuz it has been a major pain and waste of my time. Their website says 3-5 business days and its complete bs..i plan on gettin some of my money back (hopefully) and i am going to report them to the better business bureau.

yeah i kno..my rywire jumper kit came today and so did my hasport ac bracket. i also got the int. shaft but still no sign of the mounts and linkage..i think im gonna hitch a ride home today to work on some wiring and put those brackets on so when i get my mounts and linkage i can just dump it in. what hoses should i use for the radiator?? i was told integra 90-93 upper and lower hoses would work. What car should i get the ac belt and the alternator belt from cuz im gonna put new ones on..also when we were talkin about that speedo cable insert..how do i take that top off to remove the gear?? is it the long bolt to the left of it thats holdin it in? theres two bolts underneath the cap but i dont think i can get anything in there to loosen them

Yeah, I had the same issue..I couldnt get a good enough angle and I could have sworn that the bolt to the left was not it, it is..the cable drive unit has a tab that goes to the driver side of the car, there is a bronze colored bolt in it that has a very long head..it will take ALOT of wiggling to get that sucker out, I had to use 2 bars, various other methods, and calledin an act of god to get it loose. Once you get it out, the two bolts under the head of it will come out and the saucer-type part of it will split in two pieces, gears are in there...
