HELP!!! Is it possible to swap a rb26dett into a CX Civic???? I've been saving my money for awhile now and i want a TRU SLEEPER. Went on ebay and got a good price on that rb26ett, and does anyone know who could do it for me? Price is not a issue.

 

A true sleeper would be a dart-iron-block B18C turbo running 2.5bar with a closed loop BOV so than nobody hears anything but your tires burning through fifth gear. Slap that badass in a 1999 EK with unpainted moldings and trim, keep it at stock height, put some big brakes on it and you've got yourself a 10-second, streetable civic for way less than it would cost to put a skyline motor in one.

 

tell me you're joking right...
first off the rb is way too big to fit in a civic
and second, the language is totally different...
and third, if you really want to do it, you better keep saving your money

 

RB in a CX....hmmm

 

you are a TRU HOMO. You are asking bs questions that you pulled out of your ***. wait a second, it just fell out of the gaping hole... now to answer your question. no you cannot do it. IF you knew what you were talking about, and IF you had enough money to buy a REAL GTR, then yes it is possible, because anything is possible with the right abmount of money. rb26dett is 4wd, you can get the single turbo one which is rwd but then you'd have to cut off the front of your car and make it bigger because an turbocharged inline 6 will never fit in your car. there are multiple other factors but my hand hurts from punching the wall in anger after reading your post. Do everyone a favor and don't disgrace a legend by putting that engine in your POS car.

 

you're an ***

sure you can do it. move the firewall back a few inch...feet, machine some mounts, get the rear end from a 300zx and make the civic RWD. you will win so many car shows and drag races its not even funny

 

with cars, nothing is impossible...money is the main downfall

 

If anyone ever does that then they have madd skills. BUT, anyone that is asking if they can put an rb26dett into their civic obviously has no idea what is involved in doing it and basically is asking a totally pointless question. Unless you know what you are doing and everything you need to do, you will never find any mechanic or shop that would attempt doing that. its never been done. you have to search and do all the research for yourself, no one can give it to you... simply asking if it will fit and who can do it will not cut it with such a swap. and saying money is not a factor is just the guys way of preventing some potential flames. obviously if money was not an option you would not be driving a cx in the first place...
