S2000 civic swap
I was wondering if anyone has ever thought about, looked into, or done an S2000 motor swap into any 92-00 civic. And i mean taking everything out and making it rear wheel drive. i know custom stuff would have to be done, but I want to get as much info as possible. I was thinking that the Crv rear suspensions might bolt onto my 93 coupe ex in which case I could just mount the diff and get custom axles and driveshaft, but i dont know if the crv suspension would hold up to being rear wheel drive, another possibility is using s2000 suspension. just ideas right now, any info would be appreciated

Re: S2000 civic swap (marques4130)
it has definitely been done to varying degrees, not sure if only in EK or also EG.
I havew seen a few pics of different cars running that S2000 rwd setup in a civic hatchback.
it requires a lot of tube frame setup on the car and also requires a huge upfront investment on the S2k drivetrain...
I've thought about it a few times as a real possibility for an autox car but the B series hybrid civic is very competitive as is without going bonkers and making it a high cost rwd machine... although I still would love to drive it as a rwd car... as a rwd hatchback, it would be so sick.

i don't think its that easy (please do a lil research about topics like this before you go on misleading people) otherwise we would see someone with a FWD f20c powered civic by now
its post like that, that REALLY bother me. a RWD conversion is possible but you are looking at (est) over $10,000 for the motor & drivetrain mods that would be needed
