My buddy has a 2006 RSX type S. Someone completely destroyed his backend. now, he is selling his car peice by peice to buy his new car. anywho, he said he would sell me the engine if it could work in the cobalt. he said $1,500. only has 18,000 on it. Could i put that in? thats 210 HP right there.

you just said put a honda motor in your cobalt, im speechless, i know that motor is great off the line but come on.

wtf..... shoot yourself

i think your be better of just getting rid of the thread lol

:lol: :lol:

:lol: ORLY

hahahahah, how about you spend the $2,000+ you would on putting it in, on your current engine and have WAY more than 210hp

do it, it would be funny as hell. Anythings possible, shit theres a build making a Cobalt RWD

QUE? why the hell would u do that? thats stupid......put it in a crx aka a honda where it belongs not in a goddamn american car! better get ur flame suit on!

:wtf:!!!?? are you serious?


yeap... your gonna need a damn good flame suit for this one :lol:

please erase this it will save yourself some abuse

201 horsepower, the 2005 is the only one that has 210hp, and thats the one i have! i think it wud be cool and different. but once again 201hp

it can be done but it will prolly cost another 5k in custom fabrication to get it to work

that would be blasphemy. how dare you put god's motor on a 2.2. :D

that engine would look perfect with "steetglow" hahaha

that engine would look perfect with "steetglow" hahaha

guess it was expected with his screen name. :lol:

then your gonna go put a "powered by honda" sticker on the back window

Better off buying a cheap hatch.

:twothumbs

Or you can submit your idea to Tokyo Drift to replace their Nissan motor in a Ford...

you know that car cost $300,000 to make? just found this out thought id share

Dude, buy the best 4cyl honda you can find for under 1000 bucks. Gut it, drop this in, bolt it, tune it, some dr's and say bye to most of the cars on this site.

don't do it, $1500 for the motor and a shit load more for all the fabrications and labor you would need to make it work. it would probably be thousands cheaper and your car would be faster to buy a turbo kit and some other goodies

see k20's are great and all but I have spent 750 on my D build and have 343 FWHP on my crx , and I have a block guard , vitara pistons , eagle rods , acl bearings , cometic headgasket , etc and I walk alot of shit at the track in KC. alot of all motor RSX-s's I mean they are pretty quick but for less money build a d blow it and build it again for uber cheap and still be damn quick. I love my d16 <3 hell I am selling my balt to get another honda , Ide rather have another Civic or accord , they are extremely cheap to replace parts and fix , and the cobalt just aint doin it for me.

lmao....


this is not the way it goes.

He would have to gut the entire car and go full stand alone.

It wouldnt even be streetable.

i hope the OP is kidding

i hope the OP is kidding

i honestly dont think he is.

just ship the engine to me and let me put it in my car. that would be far more respectable than what your considering

Of course he would have to go standalone.... I have run into two k swapped hatchs in the past year, and both of them were streetable high 12 second cars. I dont understand the rocket science here. Its a K swap. None the less its a decent price for people with a project honda.

Only 210hp, what about torque...

were talking about this in a cobalt.

Nothing would work. not only would you have to go full standalone, nothing, literally nothing in your car would work.


you would have to go so far as fab up a new mount for a new Gas pedal as the one we have wont work.

new tranny as well.

then comes new axles. driveline.

basiclly the only thing you could keep would be some of the front suspension and frame.

You would also have to have a great custom fab worker to make some engine mounts that wont fail.

I could go on for hours. its not going to happen. ever.

And I am saying just that too, and that is, dont bother will all the bs of dropping this into a balt, and drop in into a honda instead. I mean, your just going to end up having honda owners and cobalt owners both hating... hahah

it would actually cost MUCH less to buy the engine AND a honda car than to try and make that motor work in a cobalt.

Exactly. K swap sleeper.

torque > torqueless wonder

Raiden, lets see you line up against a k swappeds, bolted hatch. We'll see how you do...

Bring it on.

The electric drill with my erector set has more tq.

Why not keep your engine in an throw the new one in the trunk! AWD ftw! lol
