hi guys...

i'm sorry... i am sure this questen was often made in the past... but i need any links for infos about this swap...

is the engine fitting in the stock motor-holders?

anything importent to know about?

(also i am sorry 4 my bad english)

 

If the car in your signature is the car you have, you do not own an EM2. You own a 96-00 Civic, which could be an EJ8 or EM1.

Either way, you will need custom engine mounts for the swap.

hi...

i know that my car is no em2 ... i have a sohc vtec swap with 130hp from a ej1... stock i have the poor 105hp engine... - ej6

but i would buy an EM2 this year ... if the swap is bossible...because i need somthing "faster" than an 130hp civic...

a k20 em2 would be one of the beautifulst car i can imagine

K20's are a pretty common swap for the EM2 chassis. You'll find at least half a dozen K-swapped EM2's here on Honda-Tech, alone. Mine being one of them.

 

Man that looks like a butt load of work. I would love to have it but I don't know if 80HP is worth all that..lol

Well, the 100 lb/ft of torque, and greater transmission options definitely are.

besides it gives a much better platform than the D17 to work with to upgrade and get more power.

I'll let you know how much I've made on the K24A2 in stock trim, on my car. I got a dyno run coming up Friday at 10am.

id like to see that too when it gets done.. maybe then ill get off my lazy *** and start doing my swap.

 

heres a few pics of mine getting started vader. i bought a whole rsx smashed for a donor car. no it doesnt just fit in where the D17 bolted in. you need a donor car kinda , theres too many misc parts you need from an rsx.

got my subframe today , got the front end ripped off the rsx , were cooking right along now. waiting for 6 speed shift **** , accord plug wire cover and both axles to come in the mail. heres a few pics i snapped with phone(i know) , will get more later:

 

wow, thats looking like a lot of work 4 you

very nice...

but are other engine types fiting in the em2?

maybe B-Series? the B20 is also a very nice engine i think...but 5speed tranny ...

 

tell us...how was your run?

This has been answered countless times. Search, next time.

No, you cannot run anything but a D17 or a K-series in the 7th Gen. Civics.

 

ok, thanks... and how was your run with your K24A2 ?!

What run? If you're referring to the dyno tuning I did, it went quite well. I posted up the numbers in the General Chat thread.

Even you've said yourself that one is in a salt flat racer...
Sorry, I'm just being difficult.

I'll say difficult. You dug up a post I made over a year ago. Stalker much? (sarcasm, in case some people think I'm being serious)

 

lol, no. I was actually trying to find a picture of a B-series in a 7thgen civic on google. One of the results that came up was a post that you made here about a year ago. I thought it was too good of a coincedence to pass up.
