davidian Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 i think the crank just rotates the opposite way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerm Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 yeah?...... which means the whole engine rotates the opposite... so mated to a RWD g/b it would probably give you 5 reverse gears:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 I have no idea about this. [urban legend?] All I have heard is that honda engines, such as those, spin the oppoiste way or something, giving this 5 reverse gears and 1 fowards gear. I have no idea how much bullshit that is or what not, but it sounds funny and I wouldn't be surprised if it was true. [/urban legend?] Yes this is true. I have a mate that reserched one. He was going to use a hilman avenger? diff from memory because you can reverse something to make it A ok. cant remember full story try googling it... Also the s2000 box will not bolt up to a b16a. ratshit for that idea. looks like custom box for you. more dollars..... Its a very expensive conversion jus for a bit of vtec. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atropine Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 agree completely davidian.. this guy just wants to be unique.. has no care for how the car is afterwards and has no clue on what is needed to work the conversion.. still giggling at gearbox converters..

Bullitt Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 There is the odd honda person on here, we just keep quiet about it due to the completely incorrect biased views held by many people on this board. Youve came to the correct conclusion, albeit for slightly the wrong reasons As said above they are still mounted the same way as most other FWD motors they just spin the opposite direction. The F20C from the S2000 spins the normal direction however so even if you could mount the B16A to it, it would still do you no more good than using a regular RWD gearbox from a supra or whatever. I know plenty of people who have looked into it and I dont know anyone who has even got to the point of trying to build one, let alone actually making it work. No factory honda motors have 135hp either. The ZC which is the 1.6 DOHC motor makes 130hp in its top black top form and less in the gold top. The B16A DOHC VTEC makes 160 in NZ New or EF civic/CRX/DA Teg or 170 in EGCivic/CRX/EKcivic form. You shoudnt be anti a Honda owner, you never know what they have in their garage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Demonmk2 Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 by the way it ant v-tec its a zc engine yeha sorry it is 130hp read it wrong and 130hp is pretty decent for a n/a car, so what ur really saying about the opposite direction thing is that it cant be done and ill end up with 5 reverse gears?

atropine Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 you sure its even a black top? all i can say if you know nothing about the conversion and your trying to jump headfirst into it.. just work the kent or get a pinto.. if funds are a bit higher a nissan twincam would be good..
