Re:wheres the love for the new si???
 

ok.. well since we're on the topic of k series engines. anyone notice the s2k head looks alot like a rsx-s head? hrmm.... do they share certain features. this leads me to believe that the rsx-s trans might bolt up to a s2k motor.. wait, FWD S2000 engine in a civic si !!! ? no way.!?. i wanna find out.

Re:wheres the love for the new si???
 

na, i doubt it, they look kind of similar, but the s2k engine is like an f20c or something, not even a k, so i doubt it, but in a post a while ago, there was a guy who made a gearbox for the s2k engine to be fwd, then you just have to fab it into your bay. imo, just buy an s2k ;D

Re:wheres the love for the new si???
 

some guy already makes bell housings so you can put the rsx trans on the f20c(s2000).

Its all relative man. true for a tuner/ boostaholic like most of us are this car is not as ready for boost as a stock silvia motor. but as for making a mistake, Mr. Honda is still getting rich. He wasnt thinking about us, bastard.
The new civic is differnt no doubt! To tell you all the truth, i really didn't like the 96+ civics when they came out either, I thought they were ugly. But as time passes by, And technology changes, the civic si will be a key player in the honda/acura enthuiest world! I don't know why honda is attempting to make there cars harder to mod though! That is like there catch/vice, why change that?

Re:wheres the love for the new si???
 

Why change that you ask... im no expert but living in the world ive learned a lot about business... i think honda is making their cars harder to mod for the same reason they declined to donate cars to be viewed in the fast and furious 2 movie. they dont want parents who pay for the cars to think they are race cars cuz their kids wont get ----. They know real enthusiasts will figure the modding part out and theres not much to modding a 200hp engine.. you turbo that ---- and ur making 300hp in a light car so...
So basically it boils down to business and honda covering their ass for safety and security reasons

Then why did Honda make that "Civic Nation" commercial? It basically promoted the whole modding/tuning and ricer-ing of Civics. And the commercial was released during the whole F&F-2F2F craze.

Re:wheres the love for the new si???
 

I don't know what the ---- they were thinking when they decided to put a rally style shifter comming out of the dash. that is by far the gayest thing honda ever did. the style is growing on me though.
