All you will need is the motor and tranny from a S2000 and it bolts right up.


No seriously, you strike me as someone who is mechanically un-inclined. I would not even bother giving this a second thought as this will require much custom work. Bringing it to a shop will cost waaay too much.

If u want rwd for cheap, get a 240.

There was a thread where some guy wanted to do this and convert his DC into RWD and I doubt he went through with it b/c I never heard of it again...

RWD and AWD integras have been done before... there is even a company that specializes in it...

Seems like more trouble than it's worth, man. I have an S2000. They're sensitive. You may or may not know this....but changing things even incrementally can TOTALLY wack your power out. That's why parts that actually make power cost $millions!!

There was a F20C swapped into a miata. The exhaust orientation was changed and the motor made 30something less WHP.

I'm guessing you're doing a FWD setup? I think it's gonna make the same amount of power as an ITR swap or something unless you're an engineer and can tune everything to mimic a stock S2K setup. Exhaust backpressure to be in tune with intake pulses...etc....etc....etc. It takes a lot of school and knowhow to make 120hp/liter all motor. That's why the F20C is the 1st 4 cylinder NA production motor in history to do it. Again...it's very sensitive.

The K20 probably has more potential (I hate saying that). It's an easier swap. They both have red valve covers and look pretty similar. Why not just do a K20?

If you're talking about the white DC2, it was finished. He made a thread about 200 pages long, step by step with pics of what he did. He used an H22 motor and set it up behind the rear seats. It was badass. I even saw pics of it in Honda-Tuning.

If he has the time, money and skill to do it then why not.

I know theres a few civics that have done a rwd conversion, so I'm sure there might be a couple integras also. But the one I saw here on H-T used an H22 motor.

yeah but the guy was a very skilled engineer. He was also field skilled (welding, fabbing, etc.) Like i said before. Lots of school and know how.
