Seriously, instead of a swap...cams & valve train, final drive, & maybe ITB's.

would be a complete waste, if you're going through the trouble of doing a swap in a 02 civic, a damn b16 isn't the way to go...

With a k24 hybrid in the em2, the car moves out and it seems like it would be a cool sleeper. I hated mine because it had the shitty d17 coil pack tester...

I never did the k swap because it was like 10k back then:eek: I bought the car for 11k cash...definately not worth it. Now, i wish i never would have sold it. With everything i put in my H hatch, i could have had a beast of an em2. FML:look:

k series is the only way to go. hell im considering pulling my b18c5 out and doing a k swap.

i got a 01...but a swap in that car is never gonna happen, cuz ur still gonna have to get fabricated mounts and a whole bunch of custom shit just to make it work, a K would be best but just get a shell bro....i got dc4 that i can swap all day..ftw

i disagree..the front was a little girly but the rear set that body style off. All it needed was the 04-05 rear bumper with the molded half lip and you were set.

I figured do something different that no to many people have done.... Whether it be an eg, ej, ek or whatever chasis you choose money is invested as well as time.! This is ultimately about being different and wantin to work with the platform I have at my disposal!
EF ALLMOTOR how much much fabrication would have to done to swap a H or J....

K series would be the only way to go. I have a 02 Si and I want to do the K24A2 swap in mine.

Both are going to be complete custom jobs. Read the posted Honda Tech thread about the H, and forget about the J. I would imagine that the number of successful, running V6 civics are probably in the single digits.

Just swap a hybrid K...There is one on the boards here that will stay with an e92M3 til 6th gear:eek:

Your gonna pay outta your pooter hole for an H or J in the em2/ep3/dc5 chassis....bottom line
