How many peepo out there has done their sr swap themselves? What problems did you encounter and what would some advise be?

 

I did all of mine. wiring was tedious, I/c doesn't fit but i just ran a longer section of hose. everything else was easy. i've been helping with sohc to dohc swap and we've run into more problems there than i had with mine. anything specific you are wondering about?

 

it's not too bad, in general the big parts bolt right in, alot of little stuff has to be changed or fooled with. Anyone who's done a MPI conversion on a honda will be at ease with the wiring. My favorite part about the DOHC swap is that the stupid PS pump has to be used or there is no idler for the water pump belt, I'm not running PS so I had to gut the pump and fill it with oil and run it as a tensioner

 

I just did mine and have been for the past week. Biggest problem is I took off my turbo to take off the stock turbo elbow and bolt on my aftermarket one and now i cant get the oil line in! Worst part is i lost both copper washers and have been goin all over town to look for one. I have one my friend dremeled open to the exact widths but I still need to find another one and the ones we dremeled open we messed up 3 of em and just have the one and all the Discount Auto stores are sold out of the ones we need. So word of advice.... dont lose those washers!! lol. But the only other hard part is gettin my front mount to bolt on straight but that just takes some re-adjusting of the brackets and such.
