Yea, but you have to admit that is a very clean and well done swap(from we you can see). The car is in really good condition too. Looks sweet, and sounds nice too. That is almost as kool as the guy who dropped a B18C(ITR motor) in an old school Mini, it could out acclerate a porsche carrera.

That's like what they do with cars like the Capuccino (sp?) in Japan. I hear the big motor swap for those is a B16 or somesuch.

WTF!!! Capp's are RWD. B16??? Common man... haven't you watched any Initial D lately? You should've known if you were playing GT2 in the late 90's.

Hot damn! I say more power to him. At least it's not another 240 Sr swap. Everybody's aching to do one of those nowadays. I know I have...for the last 5 years..damn, I need a better job.

yes a honda motor can physicly b turned 90 degrees to be put in a rear wheel drive car, you've been wathcing to much fast and furious lately, have u seen the RWD evo 9 on here yea they have the motors horizonlaly opposed, how the h3ll did they do that! omg, im pretty sure that someone could prolly modify the trani from a s2000 or sumthing to get somehitng to fit a b16 or even some other trani

I don't think that would work with a B16. You see, the Honda b-series engines all turn counterclockwise. So, if you were to use an ordinary rwd transmission 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th would move the car back instead of forward. One of the easiest ways to make it work would be to modify the engines valvetrain, which would actually not be easy at all.
