becoming pretty common actually. its a guaranteed 13 second car with a stock swap.
interesting....
u been out of the loop, they even put that engine into an EF which is a feather a boosted it, that is asking for death right there
damn ! 2st time i've seen that...
Well.....props for doing something a little different but I think it looks bad. Also I bet the car is horribly unbalanced. I would rather spend the money on a K-swap with mods.
Great 13 seconds, a heavy front end, and a stupid hole in the hood.
For less you could put a K with bolt ons and be faster, plus close your hood. Oh your car would drive on all four wheels too and not do stoppies under hard braking.
its pretty much just similar to the j swaps from the acura cl's. They make mounts to drop the engine lower tho but still gotta modify the engine. But i would do a k swap like others have said.

13 seconds?
Big fucking deal. If you're going to dump that kind of time and money into your motor, I want it to either run low 12s or not look like shit.

Accualy thos swaps are cheaper than k series and don't poke out as much on ek's
I'd drive it![]()
It is different lol. Finding the fucking 6spd trans is the biggest bitch in the world. Only came out of Accord v6 6 spds, newer TL 6spds, and the rare as shit CL S 6spd.
But yeah, as others said, I rather spend the money on a cheaper swap/turbo and get the same results, if not better...
no hood fuck it
(((((No more 4 door))))))
YOU CAN CLOSE UR HOOD NOW........ hasport makes the new mounts to close the hood but it sits so low

What is the world coming too, when a Mini-van motor is an upgrade for your sports car?
It's a dumb swap in my eyes...lol I wouldn't waste my money doing that.

Who cares if it's not a fast as a k swap. I think it's pretty cool. Especially since you can get hasport mounts for it to sit right.
I saw an I/h/e one in a coupe run 13.3 on slicks. I think it's respectable.
the j swap will be my next build ive decided this for a while and this is my inspiration lol.

Lol you can all go fuck your couches. I'd roll that bitch with no hood, put spikes on all the bolt caps, pain it flat black and laugh my way all the way home.
BEST looking Civic photo i've seen on this site in a long time. At least SOMEONE can think outside of the lip, spring, rota box.

If you're gonna do it, overdo it.

thats where you are wrong my friend. check out the tl type s j32 which is the same s.wap as this, give or take a number. there is a guy on honda-tech that put down 260ish whp with just headers, intake, and exhaust. show me a k series that can do that. but if this swap blows your mind check out a g23 swap.
Your sig gave me a seizure.
