Looks like a photochop. The motor is sitting further forward on the pessenger side in each pic.

Re: New Area 51 EK + K20 swap (Teen Heartthrob)
how did you guys overcome the problem of the engine spinning the other way, etc?
I highly recommend that if you didn't read it, you try and get a back issue of Honda Tuning from 2-3 months ago with an article called "K series breakdown". (not just you, anyone that's interested) The mounts for the K series are the same as the D and B series, just on opposite sides of the car. Anyone who's good at framework could easily make the necessary changes to drop in a K series to a D or B powered car. Whether the weight distribution comes out correctly is a different story. Let's just say, it would be a good a show car, but not necessarily a good driver.

Too many details look right for this to be a photochop job. Radiator swapped to drivers side to accomodate intake, engine leaning to clear hood.
I think it's legit, but I'm sure it was a BUNCH of work.
Or maybe I'm being had. Eh, so what?

The engine spins opposite of the B/D series, but the axles still spin the same way.
An RSX does not drive backwards.
