Engine swapping in a weekend. K24 EP3
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
My friends wanted to up the Horsepower in their civic si. They are planning to track it and wanted the best 4 cylinder in the world. The K24. It should bump the power quite a bit and turn this thing into an animal. Stayed tuned for the next episode when we take it to the track.

Working on it! if nick stops buying new projects maybe we can race it.
It took forever to bleed the coolant system because the front was on jack stands and the radiator's neck was no longer the highest point
Awesome video 💯💯
Crazy good weekend, can't wait to get this thing rippin' around the track 🏁
I got one of these with a k20a2/6mt fun daily. K24 seems like a good next upgrade

Yes, it rips real good on track now!
@DZ Media this is sweeeeet! I'm doing the same thing right now for an RSX, were you able to run the 50 degree VTC OK on the stock ECU?

ECU we used is Kpro, and we got it running using the TSX basemap. The 50 deg VTC is pinned to 40 degrees using a TracTuff limiter pin.
K24 a2 a3?

JDM K24A doesn't have the same designation as the USDM motors, but it's the equivalent of a K24A2 from the TSX.

About to do my own K24A swap into my EP3, why did you use the RBC cam gear? I haven't seen anyone have to do that in my research

There are a million videos out there about it. It helps with mid range power.

Kpro, CRV mount post, and a couple sensors swapped from the old K20. We did a ton more like upgrading to the 36mm axles, but the bare minimum is listed above.

It's a DC race header from a RSX. Fits great, but had to swap the front sway bar to the CRV bar.
How did you know that that the coolant system was completely blood

we bled it until their were no more bubbles coming out. it took over an hour. I think if you can get access to vacuum system, it would be worth it.
Which Transmission and clutch did you use

Y2M3 from a JDM DC5-R for trans. Clutch is a Comp stage 2 with 11lb flywheel.
