f20c in 96 civic

[dub-c]

i was wondering if putting a honda s2000 engine(f20c) in a 96 civic were possible and if there would be any problems.

 

[LatinEM2]

its not possible..well i haven't seen it yet and i dont' it will be done..

 

[Handlebars]

anythings possible with enough money. but your talking converting a car to rwd, totally custom everything... your looking at a $20,000 project easy.

 

[dub-c]

cool thanks for the input, is there another engine that matches the f20c's integrity that would be an easy swap

The easy swaps would be B series engines..you can also swap in a H22 and maybe the K20's...money will get you all the swap you want..

 

[x_civic]

the engines everyone already has...

ya cool, ive got the cash i just want to put in a fast engine in my 96

 

[stealthy]

if you've got 20k,want a fast car,and want it to be a civic.....there are way better ways to go about that than the f20c....idc how unoriginal it is.personally,f**k the k series right now,boost an h22.or a gsr for the b series guys here.....

its quite possible to drop a s2000 engine into a civic its just going to cost a lot because parts are not made for that swap. i would imagin you;ll need the s2k engine and hook that up the the euro accord tranny so that you won;t be doing a RWD conversion as well. but yeah it would be really expensive to do.

if you;ve got the money i;d go for a H22 type S JDM engine built for boost and run a turbo setup. be sure to put some into your suspension as well. its just as if not more important than the engine.

correct me if im wrong but there is no way you could put a fwd tranny in place of a rwd tranny,you know what the f20 looks like and how it sits in a car?im not visualizing it working...

 

[itsmycookie]

yeah but the euro accord has the f20B tranny so i would imagin it would hook up to the f20c engine just like how b series trannys mate to b series engines or you could use one of the other f series trannys. i was talking about positioning the s2k engine sideways like a normal civic engine. it'd be a huge waste of money, time, and effort.

i have an s2000 engine and tranny if you want it.

 

[dub-c]

cool , thanks for the input

Like how an f20b tranny will bolt to an f20c... HA...

 

[Jezek]

you could do it...and it wouldn't HAVE to be rwd either...but damn, for all that $$$ you could do something a lot sicker

it would sick as hell though..
and im sure some1 got this in the works

 

[itsmycookie]

not really. i think for the money you;d need to do that you could have a far far better car. but it would be very unique
