Whats such a disgrace about it? Whats special about the nsx motor besides 2 more cylinders? Didnt mahdavi build a Nsx-Crx that ran like 14s-15s? K20 is an awesome motor and should Hardly be considered a "Disgrace"Originally Posted by eYezs1ck
This whole, "It's just the internet" is just dumb. If that's the truth then the person busting you in the face for running your mouth can say, "It's just 5 cross yo lip dude, don't take it too seriously"
2 cylinders.
It's alright if they didn't have a motor to begin with. I mean if you have the money then you can do whatever you want.
There is an NSX is this months modified I think makin like 6 or 700hp with the V6.
Its already been proven that U dont need a bigger motor to be faster...Unless u have something u need to compensate for...

i like it
i think its a great move. k20 has hondata kpro ems and its nasty tunable.. k20 will make a hella lot of more power too...
wtf?
i think its sick.. More and easier parts to obtain for a k20.. Makes total sense..
i know.. but wen i first look at it, my first though was "wtf"
i think it looks nasty
i have a k20, give me that setup lol
~starts looking for NSX shell~
Theres prob a good reason for it. Weight , availability of parts, power potential, Cost, etc.
Sure the INITIAL cost is alot, but if this is some road racing car, he could potentially be going through 3-10 motors a season.
Its MUCH cheaper and economical to replace the K20 than it is an NSX motor.

you dont know what your talking about n00b
call me when you get a chance, if you can post something up for me it would be appreciated.
i think the big bottle of nitrous rules it out as a dedicated road racing car... lol. unless some time attack classes let you spray?
The server is too busy at the moment. Please try again later.
man its a bottle just hanging out no lines or anything. Could be a prop.
Maybe its someones drag car?
Maybe its just a play toy

and think about it, its a V6, so theres 2 OF EVERYTHING. 2 Headgaskets, 2 Manifolds, 2 heads, etc.
Its much simpler to eliminate all that down to a single 4 cylinder engine.
I dunno makes perfect sense to me

maybe its there to spool the turbo....
if your not all caught up in OMG its an nsx keep it oem! then its a sweet idea. id be like wtf? that's cool. you wouldn't see it anywhere else
neat.
wish I had tons of money to blow away
Dont rule out the Time Attack thing yet. There are some TA cars in UK that have the bottle.
As for the K20, its a great idea. Im sure it weighs less then the 6 that came in it, they can mount it lower in the car being that they had to use custom motor mounts, and its way cheaper to build a K20 then the original motor
thats strange
i can see someone doing this if it was one of the older models with the relativly weak hp 3.0, but idk if you have an nsx then you should have the money to do whatever the hell you want to it.

Maybe the picked up the NSX w/no motor? Thats the only excuse I could think for them doing this.
Life begins at 6000 RPMS.. You will notice an audible change in engine noise, large increase in acceleration and any female passengers will immidiately start to remove their clothing.
The only thing I got from the owner was that it was a track car. For someone to do this it should be weight savings and a cheaper build. I've seen NSX basically stripped to about 2400 lbs as track cars so how much lighter is this setup? Maybe a a few hundred pounds lighters? I need to find out how much these two motors weigh.
MAYBE for more engine space. just a thought.
wow
Maybe the owner was tired of dropping the motor to fix things?
zoom-zoom-zoom
lol wut?
why swap in a k20? wtf. who ever did that burn in hell bitch
I posted this idea years ago on here lol! Can't search for the thread because NSX and K20 are both less than 4 characters. I'm glad somebody has FINALLY did it.
Eventually somebody's going to figure out how to build a sub-frame from scratch and mount an LSX in one...I've researched the dimensions on just about every mid engine V8 production car built, studying the gear boxes of each to see if it would be possible to work in an NSX. fail lol!
Not my thing but looks good
I want your car with an LS7, BBS LM's, JIC Coil-overs, & synthetic suede interior. :boobies:
theres a guy out here in covington with a nice LS1 Z32 and i want it sooo hard :idb:
Cool! I would do it, If I had money to waste. But building a k series is much cheaper than the v6. I say it's probably a 35r turbo, so maybe the hp range will be in the 400-500 range and plus the nitrous.

I wouldn't do it and I got 2 sitting in my garage. The only reason that will even cross my mind is if I found a cheap chassis. It's about $10k for a 3.2 litre and 6 speed tranny and a little cheaper for a 3.0 and 5 speed. Say if it didn't have a motor I'll probably put $10k into the fabricating a K series/turbo into the chassis I might consider doing. If the NSX has a motor already it'll cost $10k for a lovefab kit (450 WHP) or $8k HP kit (600 WHP) to make an NSX a 10 second 1/4 dragster and a great track car. Overall you will not be able to sell a K20 NSX the same price as a stock NSX.
BALLIN!!! you can make 400-600 hp reliable hp with a k motor...... With the 6 you can only make about 350-400 and have a good amount of problems with the car..... and its alot more to fix. The k motor is lighter and face it, easier to work on
i think the nsx's were made 50/50 weight and i think throwin in a K series just threw it off, well wouldnt be bad if it was just a drag car by lightening it up, but still somethin diff. is always nice to see
yep, 50/50. BUT if you can move some stuff around and keep the 50/50 with less weight....well then you did something worth doing.
Its things like this that win races...
