"k20 no prob", uhh I don't think so. k20A is hard as hell to swap because mechanically it is the exact opposite of the D17 and larger. Once engine is in place all the accessories have to be hooked up and this is typically with no space for the component. Plus the transmission is just as difficult to get into place. This looks superficially like a straight swap.

From the website it looks exactly like the current 7th gen sedan.

U.A.E. u know how far that is, nice place though, i think u can only get sedans there, no 2doors, and the sedans there are many diffrent types( as in the website ) cars have weird names there like exmple. the maxima there is the infinity here, and the old altima was called the nissan bluebird

this has already been discussed... it is a 6thgen, cause the vti hatch is a 6thgen, if u click on the vti hatch, u get an image of the car under the list of cars,

so its probablly a b16 in a sedan....

and a 6thgen at that....

Actually, Hasports is now as we speak prototyping an engine mount to swap the k20 in our civics. The latest Honda Tuning mag. has the details on how they did it. There is space for the engine and maybe turbo. All you need is the engine with tranny(of course), rsx subframe, rsx ecu, rsx cat. with down pipe, rsx throttle cable, rsx clutch cable, and it will require to fabricate the piping after the cat. The mag goes into more detail if i left something else out.
