Nothings impossible, but it's mounted 90 degrees differently than ours. It would suck and I don't think it could be done without MAJOR modification.

Not to mention the Integra is FWD, and the S2000 is RWD. I was looking into doing the same swap a while ago. If you have the money, just go with an RSX-S swap or B18C5.
Of if you have a few good amount of money, don't bother with the S2000 engine, just go by a E36 M3 engine and drop it in there! LOL

Besides the longitudal v. transverse issue (no common mounting points) the F20C rotates the opposite direction of the B-motors. You would need some sort of reversing mechanism (unless you want 5 different ratios of reverse).
The B18C5 is the best it is gonna get (factory) for the cars that use the B-motors... which is pretty damn good.

yah, can't do it. They spin in different directions.

A guy here in NZ is running a crx rally car with an s2k engine in it, front wheel drive. Nothings impossible...

Um no that car is RWD and the engine is in back, just like in the NSX. Not to mention that engine is meant to sit sideways just like in the NSX, while the S2K engine is meant to sit longways.

some drag racer (I read it somewhere in a mag) WAS running a CRX with a Eagle Talong turbo engine, and rear wheel drive. He later put an S2000 engine inside. Nothing's impossible!

Re: How hard would it be to yam an S2K engine into an integra? (autorice)
No one said it's impossible, but that car is also a full tube frame chassis'd car...It's not a street car..
A NSX motor is probably easier than a S2k motor, just because for the S2k motor the tranny needs to have a driveshaft to connect to the rear differential..So you'd have to cut the car down the middle and make a transmission tunnel...That's majorily ******* with the car..
The NSX motor just needs a rear roll cage / tube frame, to have mounts welded to it. The tranny is designed to be in the back..and RWD, it would be much easier.
