Anybody have an idea of the cost of an NSX engine, either list new, or used? Amazing piece of machinery, that VTEC V-6. Very different design from most Honda engines due to it's mid-engined placement. I am curious if it is compatible with other Honda cars.

If you are serious about swapping it with another Honda I'd contact Sport Compact Car. They do an ultimate engine swap comparo every now and then and they should be able to give you some advice.
I have heard of NSX powered integras, though. ---------- "Ferrari isn't a car, it's a lifestyle" -Enzo Ferrari. |

Wow, and WOW!!!
That is a great idea, asking SCC, and I've never heard of Integra hybrids with C30A's or C32B's. That's awesome!!! Thanks Enzo, and tell me more if you've got more to tell!! |

Well, I regret to say that that was all I know about it...and I'm not even sure if that NSX powered Integra was real, or if it was a bad source. Good luck.

I found out that there was an NSX-powered Civic, but that was a tube frame racer, nothing like the stock car.

I was psyched to finally get the (rough)dimensions of the NSX engine:
Engine weight = 425 lbs Transmission weight = 110 lbs Engine width = 3 1/2 feet Engine length = 2 1/2 feet Engine height = 3 feet This gives me an idea of the sizing of it, and whether it will be able to work in an Accord, Integra, etc. (that is without completely throwing of the weight distribution and resulting in boat-like handling!). |

www.brucenomura.com might give you some ideas
i think his email address is on there too, he built a twin turbo NSX, he has been a very popular in the import racing and tuning, he might be able to tell you if you can do that kind of swap. |

it would cost a hell of a lot since just the comptech supercharger for it cost close to 10 g's
also the old legends had the same c30 and c32 blocks as the nsx's they also had the 6-speed trannys which kinda makes u think! ---------- 00 accord coupe ex v6 SS aem cai, WW 3-piece, clears |

Anyone seen an NSX engine in a 7gen Civic {01-up}. I would pay to do that although it would be rather ridiculous and/or evil.

wouldn't it be incredibly difficult to drop one into a civic? its intended to be in the rear of the car...you would need to do so much work to get that thing to go in correctly!

C32B powered LEGEND
I have a 92 legend (c32a) with over 180 k on it, and will need an engine replacement not too far down the road. Does anyone know if the NSX c32b or c30b is a bolt in replacement -- or if the swap be done with minor modifications?
