im kinda new to this j swap and i was wondering what clutch work has to be done for this to work and also if anything has to be done to the fuel lines, thanks.

for my swap i used a kswap clutch line and as far as the fuel lines go Im pretty sure the stock lines will work but you can always make your own with some braided line and fittings http://www.j32a.com/images/icons/icon14.gifhttp://www.j32a.com/images/icons/icon14.gif

I am running a chasebays clutchline along with his fuel line kit with inline fuel filter.

you did no modification and they fit? also I'm wondering what is faster when it really comes down, a j series or a k20a?

had a couple local shops make me some longer lines, i think i have $35 in my fuel line and clutch line. My clutch line is a braided stainless line, and the fuel line is just a longer rubber line that uses oem fittings on each end. They were a hell of a lot cheaper than chase bays stuff, which i personally think is a ripoff.

The K20 and J32 comparison will be a never ending argument. They're both excellent engines. The J32 (for me) is more fun because of it's torque.

They are both 6 speed, they both have VTEC. They will both be FUN.

Money is the ultimate challenge. A J Swap will be much cheaper than a K.

Bragging rights are higher with the J though. The "in your face factor" has to be taken into account also. Nothing like a big V6 poking out of the hood for the ladies.


As for the lines... Stock is all good. The clutch line needs to be disconnected mid span on the firewall and bent slightly to reach the new slave location. The fuel lines are fine to remain stock. A lot of guys are even running stock fuel pumps.
