    Default Engine/gearbox rebirth

    Owning an engine and gearbox from an NA2 1997 and no NSX. What car would/could you donate them to, to provide a fast road car sub £30K for the entire project?
    No NSXs just to make it interesting

    Honda Legend, but I think I would go for a Rover 800!

    interesting choice.
    I had the last model Legend with the 3.5 engine. Loved it. However any Legend is too modern for me. Rover 800 would never had consider that! very nice

    I'd dump the gearbox and adapt the engine to fit an S2000. There's always someone breaking one on the S2Ki site.

    I had a few MK2 CRX's, out of intrigue I did have a measure up and the centre of the rear wheel to the engine bay bulkhead on the NSX was about the same as to the B pillar on the CRX. Track is wider on the NSX but most CRX's have rust on the rear arches so cutting in a wide arch replacement sounds like a good idea.

    Making a mid-engined CRX using a C32B sounds fun!
    They are great front engined cars, particularly with the VTEC engine.

    There is a forum member with a Stratos kit car and a spare engine too! Never fitted yet though as far as I'm aware.

    By the way, the thread is in the wrong section.. An NA2 isn't a second generation..
