lol hahaha... umm a few guys were working on either a tranny adapter or a tranny with a modified bellhousing to stick it in a fwd civic... Even if the parts were cheap (theyre not and never will be) id give it up and run a turbo built b series engine... its easier/cheaper/faster

anything is possible, if you believe you can achieve, just say it like this: I know I can be what I want to be, if I work had at it I can be where I want to be. I know I can...

I had 2 engines in my civic once, the b16 under the hood and the LS block in the passenger seat to and from the machine shop.

there is actually a twin engine hyundai tiburon in my area, they say it runs 10s or something, I've never seen it, but I trust the sources who said they have.

The s2000 uses an F20C1 vtec motor, so "in theory" it would be a similar fit to an H22/F22 engine swap.. but then again "in theory" communism works. The F20 series motor was a popular product among accords in the europe and japan markets, I'm sure a transmission would be possible.

Why bother getting a way overpriced shitty motor in your ride when you have so many current better alternatives, like did someone say a built B, go for a built H or anything then that motor. Yeah the motor has 240hp but the torque ratings on it are pure ----, like near triple digit differences. The price you're looking at is gonna be completely wacked too, you will need an 00+ s2000 donor car (which if you've noticed aren't cheap) and someone skilled enough to do it.

I have a better idea, why don't you get a 4g63 dsm stroker motor (2.3L) instead and throw it in your honda! Those are fairly cheap (considering dsm's are common and parts are readily avail) and they shoot easily past the 500HP mark if properly built.



There is nothing new under the sun, everything has been tried before.. stick with the basics, boosted built LS/vtec is all the ponies you would need in yer compact ricer.

yeah thats what im saying. the motor is going to be exspensive as hell. They are still very new and the price isn't worth it. The engine is smaller than a prelude though but i believe it will be a very hard and pricey process to put that in a civic. its not worth it with just the power your getting :-\
