Thumbs up Anyone fitted the NSX engine into the S2000?

A friend of mine asked me if it was possible to fit the engine of the NSX into the S2000! We all know about the S2000 engine which was fitted in the Mini and the Miata, but what about NSX meets the S2000?

I doubt it...

Aren't those engines around $30,000?

For 30g's I would rather just build the hell out of the F20 or F22

even if it were possible to mate it up to the s2k's transmission, it spins in the wrong direction. you'd have 6 reverse gears and 1 forward gear, lol.

Wrong engine orientation for the S2000.

I Think this would be better suited to the S2K...
