nfi... but what sort of figures does the nsx produce, further more whats the drivetrain.. I think the NSX's are RWD and since your lude is FWD you would have to stuff around with gearbox mounts and crap... it would be best to stick to torquesteer er.. i mean FWD, are there any different engines fitted in your model over in japan? that would be the first thing to look into... Then i would consider either fitting a civic or prelude vtec or even better type R engine (dif cams, pistions?, valves etc), VTiR civic is rated at 118kws where as the Type R is somewhere in the mid 130's (civic)... thats a heathly increase but still pretty mediocore considering the amount of money a conversion like that would cost.. for what 30kws (civic, not sure about the prelude engines)?

probably your most cost effective solution would be to change over the cams in the car to get more oxygen in, some extractors and a chip to controll everything.. i imagine those modz will give a similar performance gain and you wont have to worry about engineering or complications with an engine conversion... dont know much about whats available in the honda scene.. but thats my 2cents smile.gif

An NSX motor will not even fit in the engine bay of an 88. And if you managed to fit it somehow you would have to convert the car to RWD (which would be REALLY nice). But if you are thinking of engine swaps just go for a newer Si motor (B21A1) or you could get real ballse and go put an H22 in there.
