Default v6 s2k?

I know this question has probably been posted here before, but I haven't visited this board since I sold my s2k 2 years ago.

Is it possible to put an NSX engine into the S2000? If so, will a set of turbos fit also? I'm looking to start a project, and money really isn't an object of concern.

I also want to find out about getting a dashboard with the navigation cutout from the factory, where could I find a piece like that for an LHD S2000?

Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated.

No (way....to many problems with this one: transverse vs RWD vs size vs motor mounts vs weight change...well you get the picture)

and

No again (JDM dash will not work. Use Search function and you will see custom work with Nav)

it can be done in my opinion. just because the nsx runs a tranesverwse engines doesnt mean it cant be done. (couple of rcaecars run this nsx engine setup, front engine/rwd) with money it can be done. you'll need to do major fabrication and cutting. most likely making a complete tubular engine cradle. (think tubeframe) you'd obviously need to go with a aftermarket transmisson. with money anything's possible, but look for this to be a 30 to 40k job, atleast.

For the $$ for the conversion, why not just buy a used NSX.

I didn't start this thread to see jokes made about my home state, or to hear what someone else would do with the money I am willing to spend; so please, keep these opinions for another thread.

I only wanted to know if it was possible, but, if the majority of the s2ki community acts like this, then maybe its better that I sold mine when I did. I have the money to spend, I only wanted to find out if this kind of hybrid Honda was possible. If it isn't, so be it; but, if it is, then I will do everything I can to build it.
