V6 for a 2001 civic?
 
I was thinking about dropping a V6 into my 2001 civic but I don't know what engine would fit best, if anyone has any suggestions just let me know :)

I wish you luck.

This kind of project seems like it'd be more expensive than it's worth

^What he said x2

It'd be a very one off build, but I don't think the performance would justify the cost of something of that caliber.

maybe one that has been crushed into a cube?

have you taken a look at the size of your engine compartment recently?

I've seen a V6 fit into a civic engine bay.. I think it was a random build thread on this forum. I can't remember which engine it was, but it was a hella tight fit..

edit: not a 7thgen chassis, but here's a J32A2 under the hood of an EJ6 (1996 DX Hatch)

all one need to do is to go to the magazine shop and buy a magazine.

The J32 swap is one of the easiest swaps you can do on a 7th gen....hell id just throw in the J35 from the type s while i was at it....

*edit* actually i heard the twin turbo v6 from the gtr fits too

V8? Yes it is doable. Make sense, no way to 99% of people. Cool, absolutely. Expensive OH YEAH.
