I wouldn't do it but I guess others will. I know it's alot cheaper to build a K20 but after fabrication it'll cost about the same as to turbo a NSX motor. It's to much work but hey it's something new.
K20 NSX...........

um? Different. But yeah, i'd keep the 6 cylinder.
That's a big why lol
lulz wut.
a sprayed turbo k series in an nsx.
i can't think of many LOGICAL reasons to do this.
What?
maybe the nsx was a theft recovery and the k swap may be cheaper than a nsx motor only real reason i see someone would ditch the stock nsx motor
it a weird swap but creative

The motors lighter??? That could be my only guess. Other than that its like taking a LS1 out of a vette and putting a 4.3 in it. Makes no sence.

i would hope so,
Or maybe its just a Really Bad Joke
why would anyone do this to an NSX ?
THIS IS JUST GAY
Yup. I was waiting on you to say something.

yu knowz im da grammer natzee
i like it.
really nice.
well why would someone go SR over KA??
light weight.
dun dun dun!!!
and why would a fat boy like you dont get something with more power and tq.

why not though? they swap 2jz's out for 3sgte's in supras for racing the for jgtc...why because of lighter weight and almost the same power potential
house of turbo subarus...its all we'll drive
is it just me or does that turbo look like its in the complete wrong place?
research man. this is 2009. not everyone have LOG manifold anymore.

Makes sense to me, especially if you are paying a shop to do all your work.
Lets say they are starting with a bare chassis, with no motor or trans. A nsx motor and trans is going to cost like 8-10 grand. Then add another 5 or 6 grand for the motor build, and another 9 grand for a BASIC love fab kit. You are looking around 22 grand for ~400 whp. Thats not even counting instillation, a decent ems, and all the other shit that will nickel and dime you to death..... Se we will say 30k
I think you could have a reliable 500whp kseries for about half of that.
yea boost on those v6 are not cheap at all and they max out around 430hp u can get the same power outta the k series for alot cheaper and the weight savings would be nice
i want my money back

i like..its very different
Ur the man Chad..I was just about to post something like this..I know of atleast 4 350z professional drift cars that have either Blown the motor or started without one and put sr20s in them..I know the Parts are Alot cheaper and still have almost the same Hp capabilities as the v6..Basically the same concept here..K20s can hold 400whp daily on stock internals..Spend 1000 on a Sleeve And Turn the Boost up!
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"
wouldn't you want more weight since its mid engine that shit would loose traction in a minute?
zoom-zoom-zoom
Lol, yeah. They do this to make it fit but also performance with the equal length tubes. So it serves as a few purposes.

The Carbon Fibered R6
disgrace
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"

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.
2 cylinders.
when i had my 350z i was thinking about doing a SR swap. people said i was stupid
people will say the K series NSX is stupid too. id rather have a K24 with type S head thats boosted in a NSX over a C30A or C32B. cheaper and alot easier to make power.
a K24A1 from the CRV has 9:6:1 factory compression, toss a type s head on that bitch and some boost and you got semi-decent TQ for a honda and can make 450whp stock block with a lighter motor. how much will it take to get a C30A to 450whp? bang for the buck baby!
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"
