I don't know for sure but if it is possible I'm willing to bet you can get an rsx swap if you paid the extra 1000 or so for the engine.

yes, it is possible to swap in a k-series motor into the em2 chassis (the 7th gen civics). no, there is no 'standard' or direct swap-in method... it takes a lot work when compared to the d- to b- swaps.

hasport is currently working on motor mounts to make the swap 'easier'.

there are k motors available on ebay complete with wiring harnesses and transmission. the 'buy it now' option sets the going rate for the swap contents around $5000usd.

Si's don't fall victim to the modification shortcomings the other 7th gen's do, do they? Or am I just thinking incorrectlly.
