K20 in an EU Civic

[its_ish]

Guys, need some help!

Buying parts for a K20 engine conversion in a 2001 EU Civic and need to confirm what engine mounts will be needed. Looking around the net would tell me that a HASPORT HAS_ESK1 is the right one.
Also, can someone please point me in the right direction to get the following?
- mild body kit - if possible similar to EP3 kit
- Suspension upgrade (coilovers)
Has anyone done the same or similar conversion?
Thanks heaps!

So it is the ESK1, thanks!
I had a look at the Buddy Club website and it appears that the kit they offer is for a 2 door hatch. Im assuming the sideskirts will not be suitable.

Any suggestions for a good after market brand coil overs to suit?

i actually looked into this when I had a an ES1. You really should ask yourself is it worth it. dunno how much Kseries conversions go for now, but about a year ago it was goner cost $15K-16K. so it would be better off selling and actually buying an EP3(CTR)

Prices of K20 or even K24 engines and packages are becoming cheaper not to mention that I already purchased a cheap high k's 7th gen.

Your conversion is still going to cost you at LEAST $10k, assuming you do all the work yourself and you don't plan on upgrade brakes/suspension etc.
