The daily for the daily

Hey all, new here. So recently got myself 2008 RDX as my daily for when I知 not driving my built civic. Plan was to add Hondata, intake rims and coils. Well things have spiraled as I found a parts car that had all those things plus more like black interior, a big turbo. So not knowing anything about wrenching I opened my pristine new socket set from Canadian tire and began pulling parts off the parts car.

I have managed to swap all the doors, bumpers, and interior. I知 learning a lot from YouTube and this forum. Wish me luck I have no clue what I am doing so positive vibes are always

So now the plan is a new built sleeved k23 from golden eagle, k20z3 head fully built. I am trying to see where I can get the trans built. Tuning will be done on Haltech so the tuner is happy (always listen to your tuner).

I知 planning on putting the project car on coils tomorrow hopefully. And if it goes well I値l tackle the head from the donor car. I致e managed to get all the bolt ons off it. I知 going to take whatever else I can keep from the donor car like relays and fuses before sending it to scrap. Any tips of what I should keep?

I will upgrade the audio with a new head unit, kicker 8 inch shallow mount sub, ceiling mounted screen and a modded ps2 hidden in the center console.
