    LOL. If you can fit it in there, go for it. Just don't expect to have a hood or be able to see much out the front window. LOL

    I think it would be quite plausible. I think the toughest part would be getting cv axels.

    I have personal seen a civic and crx with a 3.2 I mean guys we've been limiting our selves with just b series motors. I know there has been some h swaps. but there is a full line of engines.

    The J-series is plagued with water pump, oil pump and auto transmission issues as well as heating issues. The c-series is the way to go. Honda made a mean 90* V6(C-series). The 60* V6(J-series) was not that great.

    it's very do able. Biggest thing is axles and mounts.

    Look around j32a.com

    Hondas aren't the only ones doing the swap.

    the J is a BEAST. My buddy runs 12s on stock TL with some spray.

    I'm stuck between doing this, and some nitrous on stock engine(with bolt ons). OR my built boosted A20. Ugh...



    Just don't let people talk you out of it. AND please don't bother with the C-series. Keep it somewhat doable. Unless you've got endless funds/time.

    I think the JSwap would be awesome, but very expensive and very limiting on space. Honestly why does everybody look past the k-swap. A turbo k24 can make some serious power, and has a much better chance of fitting our bays.
