s2000?Negative. Look at the headlights and front grill. It's a Mugen something. Maybe a one-off Accord?

All the current Vemac teams that are running Honda motors use the C32B

You do realize that is a race engine and at that setup would need rebuilds after almost everyrace.

there is an EK rolling around with an LS1 in it that competes in drfit events, another element with a V8 swap that drifted in nopi last year, and i saw another on craigslist not too long ago, it as a 94 Eg with a 600hp 350sb, RWD, and tubbed out in the back with drag slicks, he only wanted 8k for it. lol

Yes but once de-tuned, made more reliable, and if the numbers looks anywhere in the ball park of the high 400s, you've got yourself a winner.

I do. I know that was what Porsche did with the Carrera GT V10.

I posted this a few years back. Its the Mugen Legend Max, not mugen RL. In japan the RL is still called the legend.

Eventhough it's a repost, it's still impressive to see this Mugen Legend running on V8s. A really cool car I believe.
