I, awhile back, blew up the motor in my GSR. It's been sitting in my garage and I've been slowly getting it ready to rebuild. I am going to rear engine it, only because it seems like it will frustrate the hell out of me and for some reason I enjoy that. Mounting the engine and refabing the rear of the car I think is relatively feasable to house a Honda motor, the width of the car is the same front to back, but the transmission is what I'm having problems with. If I use either a K series or a B series and mount the engine so I can still shift, the car will go backwards, but since the Kseries and Bseries motors have transmissions on opposite sides of the motor, if I use either motor with the others transmission, the car will have the shifter in the right place. The only difference would be that the 1-5 shift pattern is inverted, which I could get used to. Does anyone know if the transmissions could be adapted one way or the other. I would assume that a little engineering, my trade, could yield an adaptor plate, but sometimes that is not always possible. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

 

:slap:

 

couldnt have been said any better... is he serious?? :shocked:

 

If it is strange, it isn't possible without a ton of knowledge and custom fabrication. Everything that is easily done with Hondas has been done.

 

if i remember a while back there was a post somewhere where someone had done this, and possibly if correct they actually offered it as a service? not sure but try searchign the forums here cuz i swear ive seen it done

 

I know there was a guy doing it with an H series, but the amount of custom fab and labor spent on it isn't worth the novelty.

 

yea maybe it was an H series he was doing...i just know it looked like a ton of work....

 

i met a guy in florida who did it w/ an H23 and a del sol... he used a series of linkages & shit. lots of fab and lots of trial and error.

 

ive seen a 93 sol with a h22a stuffed in the trunk, if you got the money i say do it you will get alot of extra bling points for shows

 

Yep, because bling points are way more important than say buying a house, putting yourself through school, saving for something useful, etc.

If you want a RWD Honda, buy an S2K.
