Nah, complete the trifecta and put the BMW drivetrain in the Vette/Camaro/whatever LS donor vehicle.

BlackMK4 posted:Probably because the S14 is $retarded to buy/maintain and the F20C is about as good as it gets without going to a K swap which is also $money 4cyl wise. I've never been a purist and find enjoyment in ruffling their feathers. ok this is pretty much what I thought and I don't really care about purity either, it just never occurred to me to swap a F20c into an E30, generally everything you see is at least 6 cylinders if it comes from another brand. Obviously with the E30's huge engine bay in comparison to the S2000 you get a lot more room for FI stuff if you want to

BlackMK4 posted:He should have clarified in a normal car, not absurdly expensive, and not a bunch of work electronics wise to swap... also worded as worth a drat. An S14 will cost you more than a full F20 pull (engine, trans, ecu, harness), the M42 will cost you ~10k to make 200whp NA, etc. Rebello Racing built a 260hp (crank) M42 for a local racer. Not sure what it cost, but it's in a 2200lb e30 and that thing loving FLIES.

Crossposting from RX8 chat in the terrible car stuff thread. There are dozens of RX-8s for under £1000 in the UK. They tend to mention "start issues". Something like this is pretty loving tempting though.  quote:THIS VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN AS A PART EXCHANGE AND IT WILL BE SOLD AS SEEN WITH NO WARRANTY IMPLIED OR GIVEN

Many have said the Honda S2000 suffers from a deficit of torque. This man took the "I fix things with a big loving hammer" approach to solving the problem, and now you can buy it.

Honestly, with how S2000 prices are lately, and how much a viper v10 + trans costs, that seems like it would a pretty decent deal for a tire smoking death machine.

I think the spirit of the original Honda was murdered there, but it was replaced by an American version that loves beer, premium fuel and glass packs.
