I was wondering if anyone has ever thought about, looked into, or done an S2000 motor swap into any 92-00 civic. And i mean taking everything out and making it rear wheel drive. i know custom stuff would have to be done, but I want to get as much info as possible. I was thinking that the Crv rear suspensions might bolt onto my 93 coupe ex in which case I could just mount the diff and get custom axles and driveshaft, but i dont know if the crv suspension would hold up to being rear wheel drive, another possibility is using s2000 suspension. just ideas right now, any info would be appreciated

 

I doubt that you'll have any luck finding anyone whose even attempted this (I've never heard of or seen it tried). The necessity of a nearly complete chassis and engine bay overhaul probably makes it completely cost-prohibitive.

 

here we go again.
use the Search button i bet you'll find it.

 

There is one that i know of it is a gaudy *** show car that looks like **** and dosn't put any kind of decent times down. Search you will find it.

 

I've seen pics of it, And from what i heard, it doesn't even drive! The rear end isn't connected, but it looks pretty, total show car!

 

its a pipe dream save ur cash n time

 

only if there was a FWD clockwise spinning tranny to match.

Why bother finding a tranny for it when you can get a JDM H22 with 220hp and bolt-in possibilties? People have run 8's in FWD street-legal cars, some of them on this very board, so why bother?

A tube frame EG would make your life easier.

There's a kid on here with a CRX equiped with a turbo B18C who put down an 8.9 then drove home. I'll search for the thread, but I can't promise I'll find it.

 

BS maybe in the eighth mile. there are few unibody fwd cars that even crack 8's... I gotta see this :

 

**** on my face: Sorry.

I transposed the numbers for some reason: it was a 9.80 street legal.
