Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

I was curious to see where I can throw, say, a bseries into. The whole point being going to non homosexual platform, miatas, festivas, metros, need not apply.

The one thing that I fell in love with is a 05 elise with a bseries in it, but the bodies alone are like 20k :1

Any cars I may not have thought of that would be relatively straightforward, or worth swapping into anyways? (I know you can put one in a crown vic... I dont mean that much lame work).

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

Well if you have the time and skills you can put it in anything...you just need to fabricate mounts and then I'd say rewire the entire car with a honda harness...my fav is a mini with a h22 swap

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

damn there are a bunch of Celica's with F20C swaps... i swear my buddy has a Corolla that looks the same as that one, even green like it...

sand rail

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

im going to buy a 79 fiat. and i want to eventually swap something in there. if the s2000 engines were cheaper i would swap that right away. maybe in a few years though.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

F20C into an AE86 corolla? How about a turbo B series into a 323 hatch?

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

seen a B18C in a Cabrio...

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

all those cars are super clean. i like the last one the best of the corolla

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

woow that corolla must be fucen fun to drive.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

yeah too bad it's in a friggin building and looks like it never even gets started.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

There is shop down here that is puting a turbo LSvtec in a 89 ford fiesta. I think all they have left is the wiring.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

I love it. ;) The old toyota body style is classic.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

that would be pointless and cost more money that swapping in a turbo 1, turbo 2, or even a turbo 3 engine. It would probually be slower too.

A triumph spitfire would be pretty sweet though or a mg midget.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

any pics? id love to throw a b18b1 in the rabbit cabriolet. it would piss honda/vw kids off and make me smile :)

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

Ask, and ye shall receive.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

though a honda motor would be hilarious a 16v w/a 4k trans would be faster than an LS

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

thats freaking sick

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

I'd rather have a 351W in my old GT6/Spit chassis. They fit right in w/ no cutting, and with aluminum heads they don't weight any more than the I-6 that came out of it since half the accessories no longer exist.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

here is my contribution. after i buy a house i am gonna put a b18 in a geo metro. super sleeper

or you could do that to a spitfire too

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

Uh, there's plenty of underhood room for a turbo in front of a 4 cyl or V8 swap, the hood is half of the small chassis Triumphs. If you're running EFI the plenums don't stick up anywhere near as high as intake + carb + filter... absolutely no need to cut the hood to fit all that on a Spitfire.

Have you seen any of the 4AGE swapped Spits? Beautiful swap, engine looks like it belongs there.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

What about a f22 turbo in one of these things? :6

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

My buddy is selling an 85 Golf, aparently was stripped down and just painted, motor is out of the car. Are those cars any good for anything? Maybe looking for a multi year project, wonderring what I could do with it

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

fitting the 1.8 20v turbo from an Audi TT is easy in those mk1 golf's. 400bhp a few tuning bits away.

Interesting the love for old british motors. My mate owned a fully restored spitfire his dad race's them.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

a lot of people have probobly seen this, but this car was designed around accord engine and suspension. they have h22 kits and people are puting all kinds of engines in them

copy and paste this link. it wont let me remote link or anything

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

honda motor came stock on saturn VUEs

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

Huh? Where do you get that from? Most people try to ditch the motors since they are better suited as boat anchors... and more importantly, they can ditch the transmission attached to said boat anchor. Aside from the synchromesh TR5/250/6 gearboxes I can't think of a single British gearbox that isn't machined out of poorly tempered pot metal.

Lovely styling, though, and if you get a pre'73 car (BMC switched to Toledo steel then) the rust is nowhere near as bad as a domestic of the same year.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

first an 85 is mk2,and second a aba/16v would bolt right in and make more power with less money. you need to do some massaging to get any of the newer 4cyl engines in there

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

hahaha, i know the engines are a pile of crap. British slang, motor = car. A friend has a GT6 he's fitting an E36 M3 lump into. He also has an 85 twin turbo'ed 325, all custom fabricated including 6 ITB's, which reminds me, i should post up some pics of his cars. They're a bit silly.

Re: Honda Motors in Non honda cars?
 

Eh, I wouldn't say all of them are crap. The Triumph I-6 for example, as found in the TR5/250/6 as well as original to your friend's GT6, is a wonderful engine. For a small farm tractor.
