It's about that time that I swap out the F23. Which swap should I go with. All are reliable and full of potential. Any advice that I don't know about would be appreciated. Also which would be the most stressfull because I know that swapping a K-series would be a pain for example. Any help will be taken into consideration. The following are what i have in mind.

* Some swaps will require ECU upgrades and possibly some re-wiring

1.K24A1 Removed from a 02+ CRV (160HP) I-VTEC
(via custom kit)

2.K20A3 Removed from a 02+ Civic Si or Non Type-S RSX (160HP) I-VTEC
(via custom kit)

3.J30a4 pulled from a 05+ Accord (240HP) DOHC VTEC

4.H22a Pulled from a 93-97 Prelude

5.RB26DETT. lol. haha yeah ryt.:fail:

im just saying tht no one has done 1-3 yet, so you have to make ur own mounts and figure out all the wiring, and buy these very new engines


thoses swaps are double the price of your car

also when I do swap out the motor I"m tucking the wires and what-not for a clean custom look. That K-series would be crazy tho. Did my reasearch and couldn't find how much it would cost. Labor isn't a problem, just the parts and wiring and what not. I know people that can lend a hand in this swap.

:fail:. Well theres my answer. The reason why is me and my friend had k=his K-series engine hanging and we dipped it in my engine a little to see what it would look like and it kind of fit and ever since then I've just wondered. What do you think about B-series. They should be easy considering there very much aligned with the H-series engine blocks.

1) Only if you do a poor man's TSX motor. AKA, slap on the RSX-S or Type-R head.

2) Just go buy an EP3 or base RSX

3) pfft...ya right

4) Been done...unless you find something different to do with it.

5) See #4

6) F20B

7) H23 Vtec

8) 6 & 7 are my add-ins




Edit - Did I just see you type something about swapping in a B-series? :bash:
