It's kinda of a good idea if you own an EP2 and want to get rid of that D-series garbage. But at the same time K-series engines can be sourced for cheap now..

It's from Europe and from what i heard it is not as easy as it is here to source Ks or swap parts.

And the problem isent sorcung the engines, alot of swaps done over here gets engines from japan or usa. The biggest problems are laws...

It was done out on a budget. The B Series is far cheaper and easier to locate in the UK.

That car is from england i think. K series is more expensive to buy and from what i hear a harder transplant. b series are meant to be easier put into an ep and they are alot cheaper to buy. it started as an ep2 which is a 1.6 petrol with crap pointless vtec.. i would nearly be tempted to put a b18 in my ep2 just for the sound. k20 is a better engine but the noise of a b18 is hard to beat imo. :)

Probably going to get flamed for getting this thread to the top :mangel: The EP has a B18 swap because it was going to race in a cathegory with 1.8L displacement limit, thats why.

There are 4 ep models, and one is acutally a diesel motor. ep3 is obviously the type r and i believe the ep4 is the diesel motor. ep1 and ep2 are low horse power motors. heres a link http://forums.clubep3.com/showthread.php?t=537194
