can it be done?

you can put a honda crv motor in a hatch, but can you put an acura mdx motor in a hatch?

just wondering if anyone has ever tired it.

it has 265hp

 

as long as you have the time,patience, and MONEY anything can be done

 

of course, last week i put a Hemi in my civic, it runs liek 11's stock
/sarcasm.

 

yes u can.. that's what i have in my civic. V6 civics are a lot faster than "V4", becuase of more V's. Don't let anybody else tell you other wise, or they are bssin. Im for rizay

 

There is no real way to get that big *** 3.5L V6 under the hood without maybe moving the frame.

In short, a V6 in a civic: There is ONLY one option.
And this is the same option as putting a small block V8 in one.
Get a welder, and a superlative body guy.
Put it in the back of a CRX, where the trunk is, and you'll have no trunk, but you'll have a RWD mid engined civic. I know someone who did that, runnin 10s. Ai think after he put a blower on that V8 in the rear of that thing it ran maybe 8s, but that has Nitro too I believe.

Oh yeah, a CRV motor (1st gen) is only a 2.0L 4 cylinder, as opposed to a 1.6L engine stock.

 

signal auto has a quad cam NSX motor in there EK but it begs the question

what's the point

if you car is at a level it could make use of this power I doubt you would need to ask this question

Personally I'm suprised so many people swap out there d series in the first place when they have no real goals for there car other than making it faster which can be done many other ways and for less money

 

hey...VW got a Toureg motor in a Golf!!!!!! (R32)

 

Yea, but there Volkswagen. There crazy, thats expected. They made a 16 cylinder 4 turbo engine, they make the beetle, the make a W12, a W8, and I think there the only other company besides honda to make a straight 5! Only other company I would expect to do something this nuts is Mazda, cause there crazier. Should start a new thread for this, hehe.

 

There are Volvo's with inline 5's

Nitro is a gladiator

i think you mean nitrous

 

Chevy Colorado is a Inline 5 also

 

Signal Auto actually put and NSX motor in a Civic. I was thinkin about buyin a 5th Gen Hatch and trying the same thing. Are there any details on how they did it.[QUOTE=FF lotus]but [B]signal auto has a quad cam NSX motor in there EK

signal auto vs guy on a honda board who even has to ask the question.........hmmmmmmmmmm thats a toughie. I remember the civic with the NSX engine but that was hardly street legal and wasnt it a tube chasis

 

a tube chasis was not required - and there would be no more cutting involved than when mini truckers have there rear frame rails c notched for clearance

place racing had a kit for the 3.2L V-6 into and EK awhile ago but I only ever saw 1 car like that

the main problem with that swap would be hood clearance

 

if you have to ask... i would suggst keeping to bolt ons.

 

yeah, that would be like putting an odyssey engine inside of a civic, no real point, just a lot of spent money for 265hp you can just spend less money in fabrication to turbo the engine or something like that and make well over 300hp with money to spare

Did I accidentally click http://www.superhonda.com?

 

i'm wonderin why nobody has brought up the fact that an MDX is an Isuzu????? it's the same thing as a Rodeo/Passport. it's not even a honda

come on people....
anyone who doesn't even know that needs to learn more before they attempt even a b-swap

why the hell would you wanna put a suv motor in your car..

thats a lot of ki-zash your looking at homie..

B series fo' life

 

But isnt it a Honda engine. I was alwasy under the impression that the rodeo/passport that Honda had was based ont eh isuzu chassis but had its own engine. And if I am not mistaken, I thought that combination or whatever was over with......

 

acura mdx

 

el dumb retardo thing to do..
