Found this on Reddit this morning, so I have no further information about the car. I guess the emoji stickers are the byproduct of transplanting a Honda K engine... Either way, it looks like folks are experimenting with alternatives to the LS. Gentlemen, discuss, and speculate!
there an aircooled with a ho da swap..parts are cheap they can make tons of power with turbo..even allmotor they are making over 350whp.. but 4 cyl engine in a 911 is gutless in the low end..i would never do it.. i would habe swap at least a subaru flat 4 from an sti...at least its another flat engine..
Love the Martini racing stripes (at least until they end in a cheesy 8 bit trophy), but can’t even imagine the surprise one would experience while seeing this car on track only to hear the noise of a 90’s Civic belting out the back!
At well over 100 hp per litre and bulletproof reliability the hot versions of Honda's K series engines are an engineering masterpiece.
I run a K swap in my race Integra DC2 and in its fourth season all it's ever needed is fresh oil. Factory standard. It's embarrassed many Porsches for track times and howls beautifully on VTEC. Torque? Average. Just give me revs!
So don't knock them by saying they sound like a 90's Civic!
Not a fan at all, I can just stomach an LS swap
^^^Me either. While doing engine swaps and be interesting and even addicting, having built several race cars, building race cars is one thing, building something to be like a production car is a completely different ballgame. Rarely do you see one that every things works, and to get everything working to manufacture specs, looks, and quality requires manufacture budget. Maybe just because I'm getting old and lazy, but I think your time and money is better spent modding and upgrading the M96 engine to make it more robust to deal with its short commings and design flaws,and even having a spare engine of standby...lol
