What? The Sileighty gets a Honda Civic engine?! WT-actual-F? That's possibly the weirdest engine swap I've heard in a while!
I was so confused at first at the Honda engine swap...
...and as I read this thread, it's the RCR engine. 🤦♂️

Again K24 swapped S13/14/15 are quite common these days, more common than any non nissan swap(likely only SR20 are more commonly swapped in the states). Honda K series in general are likely the most common non OEM engine to end up in other cars. Like there are K series in all of these cars that are not hondas.

these are just "common" ones, truth be told name car and someone has swapped a K series into. The K series is arguably the most reliable 4 cylinder ever made when making big power either naturally aspirated or boosted.
The funny thing about GT7 is the K20C swap is the LEAST common K to swap. The K24 from the RCR civic is a much more common swap. These swap are not weird, they are actually quite common in tuner circles.
Some more examples of K swapped cars.
the reason why people will go this route especially on porsche is you can find K series for far less money than the flat six engine.
I believe the K20C1 was a stand-in for the K24 until the Garage RCR Civic was added. Honda did sell a K20C1 crate engine (albeit from the FK2), but only to racers in the United States.The funny thing about GT7 is the K20C swap is the LEAST common K to swap.
