blasphemy, but at least it looks clean.

hmm how'd they make a honda motor spin the right way? or did they use a S2000 motor?

even if they used a FWD engine, if the engine spun the opposite direction, they'd just reverse (customify) the rear dif. Done. Considering though they had to find a tranny to rape in, my guess is its an s2k motor. I don't know though, I've never seen one.

240hp out of the box before mods. That's gotta make any NA owner jealous... ;)

I was just going to buzz about how its a 4 banger too, damn...

Yep, the new Kseries and Fseries motors (RSX, S2000) all spin clockwise now. I think the swap is blasphemy as well, but I do respect the owner's hardwork and creativity.

And horrible waste of money..

NOO!!

well... that is impressive though

that was just about the only car at that worthless show worth checking out.

the guy picked it up as a beat s4 base because it had no sunroof and a blown motor and had a hookup for an s2k engine and drivetrain and decided to have fun with it.

its too clean... somehow the inside of it reminds me of a hospital...

man, that makes no sense to put a s2000 motor, if they were gonna do a difficult swap like that, they might as well put a rb25dett up in there. Nissan is alot better is my opinion that any honda.

Ah, the F20C. It's an amazing engine, however I agree with previous posters... for the money, you might as well swap in a more powerful engine. For less money, even.

It's missing its side molding so its grooved inward. You'd think they'd leave it on or bondo or something.

I wouldn't mind a cage like that :).

are those SSR rims?

Not my cup of tea, but to each his own.

that car is very clean, even though its a honda motor. the car itself its still nice looking.

Hell, a Briggs & Stratton will make it go if you lighten the car enough.

Great craftsmanship.
Now, if he can just get to sound louder..

Pardon my blasphemous statements, but I think its hot. I personally would never swap an S2K engine into an FC, but its different and I can definitely respect all the hard work put into the car. The car looks clean as hell too.

i think its pretty tight, i wish i had the crisp responsiveness of a honda motor!

wow, everyones anti V-tech...just because immature yuppie teenagers have been making v-tech look bad doesn't mean it is. This thread should be a celebration, that engine is lighter then a V-8, it fits better then a V-8 and its just practical. If i had to do a swap, i think that would be it, as NZ said hes putting out more HP then a stock N/A rotary. Don't let yuppie ricers ruin Hondas vastly improved technology. And that car is nice

someones getting an oily rotor in their doorstep.

as far as the reverse rotation, even if it was an issue all you have to do is flip the rear end upside down, and re weld the spring perches and shock mounts in the correct....

Why not do that to a beat to death old FC?
The sheer cost of that would make me not want to do it.
Thats the only real downside I see.
