I know that you can respline the shaft on a fwd tranny for the s2 motor to make it fwd. if your making your car a rwd than good luck and happy cutting and welding. i work for a local shop here in jax fl and were thinking of attempting a s2 swap in a 2 door civc. and we own a 04 s2 we changed out to single exahust, a vtec controller, a chipd ecu, and 100 hp shot of nos. it liked the nos but were thinking of boost just to see what shell take till she falls apart. its a fun car to drive and handels forced induction well so were also courius to see if we can make it work in the civic. let me know how it goes and well do the same. good luck.

The only problem is that other than F/I the s2000 doesnt take good to mods. I/H/E yeilds about +10hp on the top end and about -5 all the way through the power band until about 7000rpms. MY 2000 S is stock and i recently had a chance to run a moded 2001 s2k with I/H/E and i pulled about a half to a full car on him every time we ran, and we ran a bunch of times. If you were planning to stay n/a, then your car would be much quicker w/a k20 or the likes of such. If all you are wanting is the shock and awe of having an F20C in your hatch then by all means let the custom fabrication begin.

at the same time 240 hpstock isnt anything to thumb your nose at. and yes the k20 is also an impressive motor that takes well to modifications as the s2000 motor dosnt. let me know the sight you found that the f20 tranny mounting to the s2000 motor ive been looking but havent found anything.
