Oh and to answer your question... anything can be done with a lot of money but their are no kits out for that swap... everything would be custom! A waste of time and money certainly when the K20A2 or K20A is so much better...

the answer is no!!
rsx/02+ civic = k series
90-01 integra/civic/ = b series

but with enough money anything can be done.

why would you backdate? if for some reason you already have an R motor, sell it and buy another k20. i mean i'm personally driving a jdm b18c and will tell you all day long the K is a better engine, it's not even really a debate

LMFAO!!!! I dont understand why anybody would want to do that to their car... If he blew the motor in his RSX tell him to spend 2500 bucks to get a TSX motor and Kpro.

Dude don't do a B18C5 swap. Just throw in a D15B or D16z6 and a P28 chipped ecu and turbo and rev it to NINEEEEEEEEEEEE THOUSANNNNNNNNNNNND!! *Sarcastic

Lol.

And of course it can be done.

this is wrong....did you even read what was said in the link you posted?....the were able to put the b18c in with MAJOR MODIFICATION! they do not have kits to do this in europe, infact i am pretty sure we just had a new member join not too long ago, yup i was right, this is that same car

Are you all assuming that this involves a K20A2 and not the K20A3? Regardless, the swap to a B-series would be cost prohibitive and would require a transmission swap as well.

OP, is there anything wrong with the current engine?
