Default C32B

Let's say I have a C32B. I know it's from a mid-engine car set up but is it possible to drop it in a 5th gen Lude ? It's a 3.2 V6, 6 speed LSD. (NSX-Engine)

I searched but found nothing. If you guys have any info, please link me.

I've seen that already. That Engine mounts in an Accord right under the hood. C32B is mounted right behind you in an NSX. It's also RWD, huge difference.

sooo are you trying to say you want to make a RWD car, or mount the v6 in the front and still have a FWD car?

no no, I'm saying I want to convert to RWD. Take out back seats, and mount the C32B behind me. I've seen an Integra project like this, but they used the B18 I think.

there was a rumor about 3 years ago of a guy that swapped one of either the c32b or the c30a into a 94 to 97 v6 accord. now if the guys who are trying out the j32 into a prelude can pull it off then someone who can afford it can try putting putting one of the c motors into the front a prelude. that would be interesting. also check out AEM's nsx swapped civic that has the motor mounted longitudinally and rwd. i've always wondered how they did that.

Unless you yourself are an experienced fabricator and welder... OMFG JUST BUY AN NSX! I promise that if you paid someone to do this it would cost damn near the same as a used NSX ($20,XXX USD including the price of the car), or close enough that spending a few more grand to get the real deal would have been worth it. Not to mention, how retarded would the car sit with nothing in the engine bay. However, I have seen a mid-engine NSX swapped CRX with my own eyes at nopi several years back so it is possible (however, I never personally saw it move under it's own power) But in all reality, it is straightup retarded unless you own a fabrication shop w/ experienced fabricators and welders, or are one yourself.
