not really an encounter as such.. but last night i went down my friends shed. and he is currently doing a project involving an engine transplant between two hondas (i think the engine is a 2.0ltr from a civic type-R) and put the engine in the honda you see there which i think is the standard eg with a 1.3 litre engine. i went out in it last night too, the thing was still spinning in third gear. here are some pictures. (sorry, i didnt want to make a new thread so thought this would be a good place to put it!)

on this last one, it has no interior because he is waiting for the gearshift changer so it converts it back to a normal placed gear shifter rather than the higher up shifter on one of those newer civics,m currently its only makeshift. still drivable like this though.
