    RDX Engine?

    I know Jpax bought a brand new RDX engine to try to put it in an EP3... I wanted to read the Thread about why it wouldnt fit again... Again anyone send me the link.

    u can do anything with enough money. The way the rdx motor is mounted there is not enough space without modding the shit out of your engine bay. Also the rdx is awd, so you would need to cut out a drive shaft tunnel and fabricate a rear axle.

    It would cost tens of thousands of dollars to do.

    No point... unless this is a fully sponsered build/your a millionaire...etc.
    But then again if you have tons of $ you'd be playing with lambos/ferraris/bentleys anyway...

    i believe the mounts wouldnt work out and the tranny wouldnt match up.

    ps: why didnt you just ask jpax?

    Its a cool idea, but wouldnt it be alot easier to throw in a K24a2 and give it a slight boost? Im sure it would be a he77 of alot cheeper aswell.

    ill post up pics again, the K23 RDX engine can be used for FWD but it will not bolt up to ANY K20, K24 tranny.

    The Accord 6speed tranny will bolt up to it to make it FWD only. Ill post some more info later. diaper change time
