I love special K :)

Dre, I still have several hook ups in Va. Let me know what you need for the swap. I am sure I can help out locating the parts and at a fair price. You are doing what I was planning a year or so down the road. Good deal, can't wait to see this in action.

One thing, make sure you get the TSX block. You don't want to be dissapointed after all is done.

A friend of mine did an Accord bottom end with a Si head and didn't make much for power at all. Honestly, the H22 bone stock stomped his K24/K20 set up in a hatch.

Again, let me know what you need for the swap.

Will do I know you have hook ups I should of asked you, I'm still going to do the k24a4 bottom end with the k20z1 head. TSX would be nice but I'm getting a steal on a 04 k24a4 and 5spd trans and I'm going to pick it up monday. I've seen some great numbers with these builds and my motor will not be stock, the platform will be new I really don't want to boost the h22 or spend crazy money on a NA setup even though I'm happy with the H22 as a daily driver. SC will be a nice add on at some point later but I'm sure I will love the swap once it's done for sure.

sup dreman cant wait to see this swap in a 6th gen. a buddy of mine has a k-frank rsx type-s(had to do swap because he spun some bearings and had a wicked rod knock) but anywho, the car now has loads of bottom end torque but no top end : ( the original stock k20 had way better top end than it does now. so i'd plan on getting some stage2 or 3 cams for the build aswell imo. gl luck w/the build and cant wait to see it done.

Thanks I also know a person who did this in a RSX and his car is so much better with the k24 bottom end it's not even funny, it would rev as like the k20 but it for sure moves faster and harder. I guess you will go NA any how you do it you can make power with this setup.

Well I picked up a K24a4 motor and 5spd trans today, I need to make a full list of parts I need to find or buy from Acura etc. I should hopefully have the build of the k20/k24 done very soon stay tuned.

sweet dude...take ur time doing the wiring and cleaning all that stuff up...or pay someone...it will pay off in the end

 

[Sakuradrops808B]

Sweet!

 

[dreman]

I aint doing the wiring that's for sure lol, but I will do what I can for sure to have a clean as possible bay. It will get shaved and repainted with as much wires and crap taken out or hidden. No cruise, AC, ABS, Battery etc I love the LX haha makes it a bit eaiser. I really don't even use AC much so I was thinking to ditch the PS also but I think I will keep it and use a custom Braided SS line.

i really hate you

my "k" friends were ganging up on me yesterday

1 friend has a 04 TSX

LINE IT UP BITCHES!

Your setup will be able to still beat these cars, if they go turbo or NA that could change though I love both setups.

[mild2wildaccord]

Hmm great someone beat me too it. I should of completed the K swap in the accord instead of the hatch. ANywho, wiring is a pain and minor fab the tsx mounts work! Good luck and keep us posted with pictures.

 

[dreman]

I know you told me you were in the process of doing it back then but you ended up putting the K in your hatch. I have not heard of any mounts being able to be used and don't know how TSX mounts will work even if fabbed but I have to go custom.
