A friend of mine just get a 2005 Accord front clip w/a V6 engine. It should be a J30A5. He is about to swap that engine into an RSX MT. The issues is the following will that MT tranny from the RSX fits the V6 engine?

why the fuck would you do that? the power gain and being "unique" isn't anywhere near the power gain/money benefit ratio.
but...not my car, not my problem.
and make the thread title correct to what you are asking for. i got little curious on "new finds" on what will fit in a rsx.
hell, if you can fit a j30a into a CRX, you can fit anything into any car.
like LS1 in my car and such

Dumb? I want to know why you are saying this. Import or domestic, a great engine is a fucking great engine. now I certnenly don't agree with domestic chassis and their built purpose against my needs and wants, but I strongly believe that putting a right engine into a right car is NOT FUCKING DUMB.
If you can tell me couple of things you can point out why it's dumb besides "V8 weights too much" or "it's not an import motor", I'd be glad to hear it and point out that you are dumb and stupid for not knowing the great money/power/reliability ratios in such swaps.
carry on

My 240z with a sbc is 49/51 weight ratio. Strong motor in light car FTW.
Stand up and post a real argument against it, and we'll have a discussion going. I'm a big fan of this kid's project too:
V8 CRX! no joke
He's even mocked it up already:

Respect
Hey I have mad respect for anyone that is willing try a tough project, and it's not dumb to put a v8 in an import. That is the whole point of a project its not suppose to be easy, hell if I had the time and money I would probably try to drop a small block in my ek project.

After seeing the clearance that thing has, I'm starting to consider an LS1 for my CRX...
But really, do I need two obscenely fast projects? A 13b would be much better as a daily driver in a CRX.

OK let me revise.....I think putting an American Made engine in a import car is dumb....but V8 would fuck you on gas...Sorry for not clarifying....For example If someone takes and ridgeline engine and puts it in a accord I do not have a problem with that...but when people start clashing auto makers I think it gets kinda messed up...
