Anything is possible. Look at tigers import cover, right next to a 2jz S2000.
But from what I've heard, its not realistically possible. I think its like the new tsx; the cylinder head and exhaust manifold are one piece, among other limiting factors.
Don't fuckin quote me on that though. Haha

iirc jpax was going to try this and decided not to since the transmission wont bolt up...in other words there is a mounting issue with the rdx trans to the ep3 chassis, and a k series trans that would bolt into an ep3 doesnt mount to the k23

if it worked, they would be selling the longblock for a lot more than $300
