There’s no way a build that clean costs 4-5k today. The swap alone would be $2-3k, kpro $1k, HR shifter/cables $700, EKK2 $600, radiator $400. Nope that’s an $8-12k build.
I second that ... especially!!! If you guys are buying everything aftermarket
Here in austria the engine + swap alone is like 5k 😂
What else do you have to / must change out? Trans? exhaust?
You could buy a whole rsx for 5k
@@austin2994 I live in Northern California and there are tons of K20 and K24 at the yard and on marketplaces. I was just on Facebook and there’s a a K24 long block for 500 and only had 70K miles when pulled
Great content as always. Starting my EK kswap soon once I get the garage situation figured out. Big concern to me doing the swap, was the vibration I was going to see. On my buddys kswap, we did a test using a stock RSX rear tranny mount and fill the voids in the mount with 45a poly. Almost no vibration and no wheel hop at all. Just a tip if looking to cut down on vibration!
He's back where it all started yes there's no better place than your own space but there's nothing like home!
Yup!!! I still do miss Irvine though..
Yes, please do a cost breakdown using current pricing.
It’s easy
I just got into Hondas like 2 years and I got a ek hatch automatic for like $300 with a blown engine I found a guy on offer up parting out a 08 civic si and he sold me the engine and transmission for $2000 with extra things I got kpro it was like $1500 $700 for ecu and another $800 to send to Hondata I got a rywire harness $800 and I skimped out on the motor mounts and intake I got those on ebay both for like $150 and I skimped out on the exhaust I got a “18 cherry bomb 3” exhaust from trubendz and a Ktuned turn down muffler I found on offer up for $120 I think it everything cost me $5000 and I’ve been daily driving my civic for 2 months on a base map I did all my research on RUclips and Google putting the engine and transmission in a civic is easy you don’t have to drop the subframe look at my shorts ima try to upload more
Good to see you back at it !!!
Thanks!
Setup looks pretty straight forward! Nice build
Thanks!
Great video good information no one never said this. About the K20 and K24 sitting up high and low.❤👍🏽
Yup!! Surprised no one really mentions it
Yea man u can put a 24 and stuff it with the hood closed BUT the oil pan is gonna be close to the ground. That's no Bueno for the oil pan.
The k24 fit perfect in my Ford escort build. I was shocked!
That sht is clean. I just bought a auto ek coupe, dark oem green, i plan on doing a k24 swap on nitrious, with ac and ps
That’s gonna be sick dude!!
Glad to see videos again
Yes please make a video break down
We miss you Filthy Franku
lmao
Lolol!
Nice clean set up 👍👍👍
Thanks!
Tat bay is clean bro!!! Sweet swap. 👍
Thanks!
Yessir let's gooo!!💯👌
Did you have to cut anywhere in the engine bay?
When you think of Hondas. What specific car color do you automatically think of? Championship white, Phoenix yellow, NFR, GPW, etc etc.
First thing I think of is Championship White.
it sucks how much cheaper a k swap was not even 2 years ago
Yup, everything went up...
I got a k24a2 long block with a 3 point password jdm strut bar no problem. Got lucky with it lol
oh man congrats on the ride. i'm having so much trouble trying to bring back to life my z6 that i'm seriously wondering about doin a K swap. I just didn't wanna lose AC and PS, and none of the mechanics I know knows how to make everything work just fine. beyond that, doing the sawp, will the check engine light ever go away? or do we need to live with it for the rest of our lives? take care of this jewel man and vtec the sh* out of it haha
What’s wrong with your z6 gang. Just finished my swap from my y8 to z6.
oh man, here in brazil it's quite hard to find spare parts for our old hondas. I was struggling a lot to find a decent head, for example. fortunately got one recently! we'll begin assembling the car tomorrow! wish me luck haha
@@Diogogodiow yesssir. Love to hear it gang. Also myself getting up in a couple mins to go to junkyard. Need a knuckle for my ek. Haven’t even driven my swap yet. Just started it to make sure it’s ready to send. I would say check the gaps, could probably use a valve tune up
I’m working on a k24a swap and I’m trying to stay under 12k 😂
Parts add up so damn much!
In-depth today’s cost for k swapping.
Gotcha!
We’re you guys able to get it BAR’d? Considering giving my son my B18C5 out of my BAR’d EK and doing the K Swap only if it can be BAR’d. Everyone avoids this question 😏
How hard to get the b18c5 bar'd?
@@TheNDex Not too hard. I did mine way back in 2005. Did a complete swap from a USDM Integra at JerryBuilts house up in Compton which made things simpler. I imagine a JDM motor may get more scrutiny.
Getting a KSwap Bar'd is insanely hard and expensive, I'll make a video of it!
@@TheNDex To be honest, not hard, you just need everything from a ITR, including the ECU...
@@LATOMMYLA I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out for the video 👍🏾
Changing the subframe is a pain in the ass
It's not too bad with the motor out, just use a jack in the center!
My $h!t clears with the powersteering rack .. how ?? I made it fit !! Lmao I used uni struts for the radiator support everything budget swapped accord shifter and still yanking this thing around
please build another ek again
To be honest, the price for everything and the way I want to build one, it's just way too expensive now.
Hey Tommy would I be able to DM you on my build? I’m running an accord motor js for a little more power than the sorry D series. Js want a clean swap with no additional mods
How’d you get your speedometer to work I also have a k swapped ek sedan with z3 transmission and k tuned speed converter but can’t get my Speedo to work ?
You have to change the speed sensor in Kpro from VSS to CSS and it will read. I am using a digital dash.
I’ve tried that
@@XxCrAzY509xX KTuned sells a speed convertor on their website. You might have some wiring issues if its not working.
Any recommendations on shops in SJ that does K20 swaps?
What did you do for the charcoal canister set up? Where did you route the lines to after delete. And which lines are they
U wouldn't have much change from 10k euro in Ireland
The exchange rate must be crazy
@@LATOMMYLA 11k
@@LATOMMYLA 11k dollars = 10k euro engine alone is the cheap part tbh 2k u would get a k20a2
You talk 2much bud
There's a forward button... Or just find another video
You talk to much
