honda is known for their complication engines... i mean... look at the new ones...

2008-2012 ones:

i4:

lx, lx-p, se : k24z2 (making 177hp)
lx-s, ex, ex-l : k24z3 (making 190hp)

^instead of doing these 2 different engine set up for i4, y don't they give sway bar for the lx, lx-p, and se, and give us all engine cover!!! WTHECK!!!

and now look at the v6:

auto: vcm where some sometimes only 3 cylinder works during driving in eco condition (and makes mpg as much as the i4)

6-6: runs full 6cyl and make mpg as bad as the older mustang... sure it makes more power... but 18mpg is not fun
Idk to me running on 3cyl then sometimes running on 6 wouldn't that chase uneven ware on the cyl walls idk just a thought when i was checking one out

Sorry, all this '4' talk.....I thought it was about doors or wheels.

Anything '4' related when it comes to the engine doesn't matter since it's not '6' related.

Carry on.

Exactly the same ****. No need to change any of the plugs or sensors. Just re-use your USDM intake and exhaust manifolds, and you'll be golden. I did the same for my swap and has been running fine for 2 yrs now.
