Mugen has done it with a K20 - and possibly Spoon, though I'm not sure.

Mugen Fit Dynamite Concept -





Tight fit, but it looks like it wouldn't be that hard. Good luck turbo'ing that though...


Spoon Fit







Looks like its rocking the stock powerplant - but cool nonetheless.

I would like to do this swap yet I'm having a hard time getting any solid info on the swap. From what I've gathered you can bolt the DC5 subframe right in the GD5 chassie with a minor change to the front mount. This is the easy part.

What I need if someone can help me out is the plumbing for the A/C and power steering. Any wiring help would be nice too.

I have the car and I can get the DC5 clip in a few days anyone care to help?

i'm buying a fit in a month or so... i plan on having a k in there not too long after... i've already seen it done by some people at the drag races, so it's not new.

And the fit isn't THAT ugly. I don't like that it looks like the xA, but, I'm broke... so I need something cheap, reliable, and HONDA.

The fit, is well, the right... fit.

It's a good car. Good luck with it. If you want reliable though, I would recommend staying away from the engine swap for a while... especially since you're broke and looking for something cheap.



An intake and exhaust do wonders to open up the stock L15A engine though. It's extremely choked down from the factory.

hey mike... yea, well, i "work" for a shop so the k swap would come fairly cheap, but yes, the swap will be a while off. it may end up being the tow vehicle for the race car... who knows.

either way, i'm looking forward to schmobbin it around town. i'm not broke yet, but after having a car/insurance payment, i'll be more broke. it will all come together little by little.

definitely don't swap it if you are low on funds. plus it would void the warranty. run it to the ground like it was meant for.

nick - yea... in fact, i just found out that my boyfriend will actually get a fit as well and do the swap in his.

he's got the funds... he's the one who gets parts for me anyway. lol

i want it more for it's practicality... he wants it for fun. after all, that's how i got my integra back up and running recently.

well, i'll let you guys know if i got it... hopefully in my driveway by the end of november.
