I have seen a couple instances were s2k owners have swapped out the f20 for a 2JZ or even the one guy that put in an SR20. I am very familiar with the 2JZ and the potential of those 2 swaps. What I am up against is the fact that the F20c/F22c are capable plants, both newer with more advanced technologies then the other two.
At 100+hp per liter why swap this motor for an older motor... What I want to discuss is those people that have seen the potential in the s2000's stock power plant and swapped it into another platform.

I have seen an ae86 with an f20c and if memory serves me correctly, I might have seen an s13 also.

What elses is out there? What other plat forms have been blessed with the f20c/f22c?

 

Datsun 510
E36

 

Ive seen pics of it in an S600 I believe.

 

E30

Great thread thanks for linking

 

Those pics are fun to look at but it's I have a hard time understanding what those chassis are doing for you that the S2000 chassis won't do better?

 

Not everyone is into S2000's. You might see it as a downgrade, but for someone who's into old Celicas it's a hell of an upgrade.

 

Haul more than 2 people?

Able to take it to the mall w/o worrying about someone slashing your top and stealing your seats?

Lower insurance rates?

Just to have something different?

Maybe upgrade a car that's been in the family for years and has sentimental value?

Open your mind a bit, such swaps aren't for the masses but there are plenty of valid reasons to do them.

 

And some of those cars are really, really lighter than the s2000.
