just to clear the air a bit, i understand [now] why kevos2k went with the k24 as his goal is 300+ NA hp. while that wouldn't be the direction i would have went, i do respect the time, research, and investment he put into building his s2k.

if i'm understanding you correctly then you can't lump a rwd k-conversion with a fwd; apples to oranges, much? again, what i said about the monumental cost for a rwd k-conversion was in regard to your "rwd k eg/crx" comment. if i wasn't clear before i hope you understand now.
Some will say the average cost to K-swap (~$8,000) is monumental....to others it's merely the price of admission. Personally, I would love a RWD, K24 EG or EK civic...no matter the cost (time/money) to build it...it would be worth it to me....to me...again - to me....it would be worth it.
TBH, I don't really even remember what the argument was about. Cost is subjective (millionaire vs. high school kid) and arguing about something subjective is pointless. The take home message is - going fast is expensive. You have to pay to K...

lol, there you have it. two people on different sides of the spectrum: built vs. bought. you want a k24 rwd eg whereas i'd rather have a 370z. are either of us wrong? i wouldn't think so. at least we can both agree that it's one clean s2k..
good times.
good times.
