[quote name='Fool Boost' date='Aug 2 2005, 05:53 PM']It still wouldn't make it a bolt on unless it was a GSL-SE. The difference between a SE and 12A car is in the cross-member not the engine bracket. Seeing as it's a 12A car he would either have to buy the RB bracket, straighten out the stock bracket or slot the holes in the bracket and crossmember by 10mm each. Then it becomes a bolt on.

Affirmative. This is how you do a 13b swap. 12a or GSL-SE front cover, 12a oilpickup, GSL-SE oilpan, and RB brace.

You can use the 12A brace... Sorry I forgot to mention it needs to be worked to get it into place a little bit but it doesn't take much work at all..



10mm is 1cm.. Whoopety doo..
