    kind of a longshot of a swap

    http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/pts/2216089366.html

    has anyone done an rdx k23 swap into an ep3 and boosted it?

    the motor is boosted stock, just a random idea but i dont know if its possible

    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
    my ep is white...
