Has been done, but not street legal. Cheaper in the long run to go K series!

 

i have yet to see a legal street drivin car that has a b series motor in it

 

You'd be taking 100 steps backwards.

actually a b series engine is cheaper in the end, k series is too expensive. i'm lookin into the same thing

 

or buy my k series swap from my 03 civic check the signature

 

hasport was developing a kit for the 2001-up civics, but dropped it....forgot their reason, but it can't be good if they don't wanna bother...

 

why in the hell would you wanna do that.

First off, it is illegal....secondaly, there are no mounts. They will have to be custom made.

The K series motor is superior to the B series IMO.

 

exactly K series will always own B series

 

They did make GSR's and Type R's in 2001 which you could do if your EM2 was a 01.

With money anythings possible

 

but why would u want to its much cheaper to swap in a k series

 

i know goign to an H22 an older engine in a newer car is illegal... the k20 is way over priced you can get an H22 a hella of alot cheaper then you would a k20 .. its just a suggestion anyway but it is possible... look at that AEM drag car im pretty sure that has an H22 in it .. also not street legal.

 

H22 might be cheaper to buy engine wise but after installation your looking at a higher price tag.

 

obviously k series is better, the majority of us know that, but as someone mentioned k series pricing is crazy right now. building one is expensive, and on top of that getting the right ecu programming for it is expensive(ie K Pro) which is $600+. This is an exact reaosn why people build d series, u can get a block for 300 bucks

 

k &gt; b

to make you happy, yes it can be done.

whats needed? alot of money.

is it worth it? sure if you don't want to drive on the st anymore.

but be side's saving your self a couple hundred, are you going to be happy? no.

what K greater than what B? a k20a or a2 is better than say a gsr motor, but a k20a3 is a piece of **** and its coupled to a crappy tranny. K swap is best but not an ep3 swap thats for sure.


Also, if there was a swap, the b-series could be a built 2.0 liter for the price of the k20a2 swap. This would make more power from the start. (though the k20 would have some room for improvement depending on funding restrictions)

where are you getting that from? the tranny isn't great, but the motors are pretty damn good

The motors are ok at best, they have about the equivalent of the Ls motor of the b-series. There are plenty of ls/motors that are very fast, but there is always more potential with the better motors. (really its the better heads)

 

yeah but hardly a piece of ****.

maybe not a piece of **** but i was bringing up the point that though k is greater than b when your talking type-r swaps but some b motors are better than some k motors.
