S2000 Engine swap
 

Hey, I just went to the Minneapolis auto show and honda had this sweet 240 hp DOHC. Does anyone know what engine this is? Could you swap it into a Civic EX coupe?

yeah, its probably the S2k motor as your title states, and yes you could put it in a civic. and no, its not a "swap" that simplifies it too much. that makes it sound like a standard d-b series swap. it would be all custom fabrication and custom parts. Kappa has seen it done/taken part in one. but as he said about it, the guy paid twice what the car was worth in labor alone.

well since kappa has seen it and stuff was it worth the money like how fast was it just curious.

i dont know how fast it was, but i dont really think it was a drag car. it was converted to RWD, so i assume it was a track/drifter. i mean, why do that swap when you could get more power out of a turbo gsr, for about 1/3 the price?

gotcha.... yeh it doesnt seem like a good idea probably just for show or something.

the s2k motor really aint that great of a motor when it comes to money. its hard to make power with and there aint that many really good performance parts for it. just stick with swapping b series b/c they have more parts av. then i know what to with.
