What is needed for a K24 swap?
Here’s a list of what you’ll need to make a swap:
- The complete engine with all components (fuel lines, wiring harnesses, etc) and a complete transmission to match.
- A full suite of accessories, hopefully already mounted to the engine you’re using.
- The engine control unit (ECU) from the original car.
How do you tell which k24a2 I have?
The valve cover is up to the top of the strut towers and that RBC is obviously hitting the hood. But look down behind the throttle body onto where the block and the transmission come together. There will be a square piece that is stamped should read “k24a2” or whatever engine it is.
Can you put a Honda K series into an EK?
Ben drove two hours from his house to pick up his K-series, make sure you check your investments! Putting a K-series into an EK chassis is not exactly plug-and-play. All of the A/C components will need to be removed to fit a full-sized radiator, a necessity if you plan on tracking the car.
Can a K24 head be used on an EP3?
On EP3s, you would use the SI manifold and throttle body. If you’re using the k24 head, you would need an adapter plate for the coolant passage for the manifold (if using stock (ep3) manifold or rsx intake manifold) or just go with the RBC manifold (no need to modify). Yes sorry this is on a ep3 02-05 si.
Where is the crank position sensor on an Acura K24?
You need to pull the crank position sensor off the a3 and put it on the k24.Here is a pic of the sensor.There are only two bolts holding it on.This is directly behind the crank pulley.Edit:This sensor swap is only neccessary if you are putting in the k24a2 from a tsx.
What kind of car is a Honda K24A2?
It has been pulled from a JDM 2006 TSX and is a K24A2 with the desirable RBB2 head. However, since Ben plans on doing a hybrid K20 head build, the 3-lobe cam and bigger valves featured in this head aren’t necessary. The fact that the motor came out of an automatic transmission car is reassuring however, as it more likely it has not been abused.
