that's interesting but definately not worth the money to do. You can get much more power out of a b18c with turbo and would probably cost less... I wonder if mounting the engine sideways gives the car balance and vibration issues...

Not to shabby. If you're good with metal work and fabrication, it would be a sweet project.

I've actually done an F20C into Civic swap before, and it is DEFINITELY not worth the money if you just want straight performance. The worst part is swapping in the S2k drivetrain (lots of cutting and welding, custom fabbed parts). The thing is, it's so unique and original, it's worth the money if you have it (about the best drifter I've seen short of a 4dr Skyline). Plus, it hauls ***!! Bottom line: if you've got the bank, and you really want to do it, DO IT. You'll be happy.

Good question. It gives it rear wheel drive though.
