It would be worth it if you could figure out how to put a 2JZ-GTE engine in your accord!

Why are you thinking to go V6?

Unless you want to do a Type-S(Acura) swap, your up **** creek. Our gen. Accords we're never offered in a V6 5speed.

going from a 4 cylinder to a V6 has never been done. It would be pointless and VERY expensive.

hello...did i s s s studder....you can't do it. You would have to relocate all of your brake lines, and well...EVERYTHING in the engine. Its never been done and no offense but if your dumb enough to ask that question, you don't have the intelligence to do it. The wiring would be easy compared to the rest of the work.

Not sure how easy it would be, but if you have your heart set on an engine swap, you might want to look at a K-series engine (K24A3) its the 4cyl out of the new accords.

If your looking to race it, then go wild. If your looking for a Daily driver then just put same engine back in (F23) direct swap is easy!

Wrong. Research is your friend. Instead of thinking you are the all mighty Accord guru, whos knowledge cannot be questioned and insulting other memebers. Try a little google search before you consider your words a universal fact. Its been done...twice.I believe our 4 bangers also have the same subrame or sumthing and v6 mounts are able to bolt up. but dont quote me on that. As the saying goes anything is possilbe with enough $.

There you go with the personal insults. Werent we all noobs at one time. If everyone had your attitude no one would learn everything. Everyone would be too scared to ask questions from fear of the almighty jackhunt verbally abusing them. Do you seriosuly feel the need to change every single thread you post in to a flame war, cause thats what all your posts lead to. Check your ego at the door bro.
