Default f20c rwd conversion dc5

Can i convert my rsx-s to rwd and keep k20 engine or would I have to swap in f20c to convert? would an f20c fit into the engine bay? I'm willing to drop 12k on this swap and i don't want an s2000 I want a rwd rsx-s!

Why wouldn't you want an S2k. Instead of wasting money on a car that doesn't handle well without a good bit or work and money, why not invest in a car that was designed to handle and preform better all around! If you spent that 12k on an s2k, you would have one sick as car! I mean it would be cool to have a rwd dc5 with the f20 in it, but only because its unique, like the K20 swapped Honda Insight. Actually thats what you should do, get an Insight and put the a k series in it!

12 k into an s2000 would be turbo kit, ugraded rear end, drop and nice wheels.

thats a bettter idea.. and instead of wheels... get some more engine internals.. and youre faster and more reliable than the RSX

As bad as I want to see this thread continue, it just wouldn't be right.
