Stuff like this is why I loved working in a shop that builds Honda’s. They’re so simple and pretty much everything from factory is better than the aftermarket so even if you don’t know much about building cars. If you got someone with that much experience just watching them and asking questions, occasionally getting hands on. Before you know it you’re pretty comfortable to do a lot of the work on your own. Also just having that knowledge handed to you from one of the og’s you can help others put together their builds based off what you learned.
Yea and I haven’t watched the video to see if smurf is totaled or not but he could swap in the coyote from it into the foxbody or whatever one he would get
Congrats David! I owned several Hondas back in the day and it was always my dream to K swap them. I ended up going German (lol) so it never happened. Now I want a K swapped Honda again haha. Keep it coming man!
I never knew there were so many electronics, and monitoring functions on the K engine, holy smokes! Very informative and interesting video, keep up the awesome work David!
Can't wait for the next part(s) in this series! This is the first K-swap I've seen using a JDM K20A with the red Honda valve cover (other people might have done it, but I haven't seen it lol). So cool! All the other ones that I've seen are either K20 or K24 from a USDM Acura RSX (20) or TSX (24). Also I love the detail that David (HR David, not TDIB David, lol) goes into with this process. He's like a human Honda encyclopedia lol. Learning something new every video. Keep up the great work! :)
Great to see an investment in a Honda, apart from Honda specific youtubers, most of them disregard Hondas, for boosted, rwd/4wd platforms. Having owned a dc2 98 spec JDM type r, and a lot of various ek civics, they don't get the credit they deserve. The reliability and how easy they are to work on really makes them the ideal entry to car modifying 😎 You dont need huge bhp to have fun on some b roads, just a well set up fwd Honda 😁
I have started to build interest in diy builds of cars and bike because of you and another guy called The illustrator. Thanks to both of you. By the way i am not old enough to buy a car or a bike.😂
You know if you really want to know the full parts list, where to get the parts and general pricing of everything as well as tips and tricks with the swap, as well as engine and transmission and wiring guides there is everything on Vtecacademy.com
something happen between him and enjuku racing or something? dont see those guys on the channel anymore and based on the 240 being kinda dead im just interested
Stupid ignition coil connectors. What was supposed to be a spark plugs change on my 2001 GS300 became a nightmare cause every connector kept breaking. Mad annoying

how do you handle the lack of a 98 octane petrol in usa (with this jp spec engine) or do u intend to use ethanol?, or just run it at less than optimum power on 91
Can you just tell me your experience for buying a motor over seas? Were you worried about... if the miles were legit, If its going to run, etc.... and point me in the direction of where you bought it from
I did this 10 years ago on my 97 Del Sol. : Google K20a del sol! That's me ^__^! You'll love it David, it burns oil, and that's okay. just watch and change your oil religiously! I cant even begin to describe the abuse i've given this motor, and it hasn't had an issue in the 10 years of ownership.
loctite on the flywheel bolts is a debated issue, the factory service manual doesn't tell you to put any, and some clutch manufacturers dont recommend it either. Proper torque method is key
@@ripperhigh8001 they also don't recommend you going to 9000+ rpm but that's what's going happen and unless that motor is built and had been harmonically balanced (which it hasn't) the thing can shake with can cause everything to get lose. Loctite doesn't hurt and save you a lot of time a worry.
Israel Cardona I’ve done probably 100 clutch jobs on these engines and have never used any thread lock on flywheel bolts. Honda does not call for it, we don’t use it. No issues.

Thanks so much for all the support these recent videos! It means so much to me.
2019 is our year boys.
Have you ever swapped a car?
This is the best oldspice ad I've ever seen.
My eg has a k20a
No I didn't, cause I don't have one :(
Me and my dad engine swapped our 67' Volkswagen bug from a single carb 1500cc to a duel carb 1800cc
I spend so much money but I was worth it and David if you wondering I make 305HP that ITB life....
Really appreciate the detail and breakdown of the K20A, You don't see this much info in other swap vids.
watch Boosted boiz
Love how your explaining everything going into the build and telling us what we'll need for it! So much less research to do
That guy needs his own channel. He's pretty damn good👍👍

Keep these videos coming. Favorite youtuber ever.
You should buy a classic Mustang in Grabber Blue and name it Papa Smurf.
Or get a foxbody and name it trailer park smurf

Welp...time to go and drop the pants below the ankles and sit on the porcelain throne
Lmao
That's me rn
Wisest thing I was taught about doing an engine swap is getting a new harness. It will save you so many problems
Keep the info coming. Currently have a K24 thats gonna go into an integra and these videos give so much info thats super useful.
Congrats David! I owned several Hondas back in the day and it was always my dream to K swap them. I ended up going German (lol) so it never happened. Now I want a K swapped Honda again haha. Keep it coming man!
The 1995 I'm on the same page brother except I just have my civic in the garage. Looking forward to k-swap eventually
@@miguelalvarado8120 dope bro hope you make it happen!
I never knew there were so many electronics, and monitoring functions on the K engine, holy smokes! Very informative and interesting video, keep up the awesome work David!
I am loving the Integra content
And the K20 is killer🔥
Lmao @ 10:18 he said these nuts like the meme 😂

Awesome video, can't wait to see the K20A go in
dont waste money on a header bro! run a little cast manifold and ebay turbo. funnest move ive ever made! stoked to see you joining the k swap world!

Such a great series of videos so far with the K swap. Very informative for anyone planning on doing the same.
The conversations in full on southern slang is something my friends and I also do when we are working on our cars. Lol. Get er done fellas!!
🙏🙏 really interesting teardown I love it
Uffffff ✌🏽✌🏽🔥🔥🔥🖐🏽🖐🏽🖐🏽🖐🏽
Eurobeat in the background!!!! Where is this heaven?!?!?
Great video David. I love this kind of content on your channel. Your integra is gonna be awesome when its done. I also hope smurf is doing good
@0:22. Dam bruh your calfs are insane🤤 what are u a Spartan 😂🤣😂 #300 #thisissparta
I was thinking the exact same thing. His calves are bigger than my quads
On god
I have started to build interest in diy builds of cars and bike because of you and another guy called The illustrator.
Thanks to both of you.
By the way i am not old enough to buy a car or a bike.😂
that guy definitely knows his stuff lol every connector every part, hes done this before i recon haha
Can’t wait for the K20 to be in the Integra!

Since you guys replaced the flywheel why not go ahead and replace the rear main seal?
So excited to see this car done!
I would love to do this same build, and do it all legit like you are keeping PS and AC.
Very informative.... Keep doing more videos like this bro.
So pumped for this build
Thank you for this. Been wanting to do a k swap!
Your going to absolutely LOVE that K swap!
Man, Teggy is really coming together man! Congrats!👌🇯🇵
Thanks dude! I can't wait to show you guys the rest of this build!
thanks for the inspiration!
Ehhh no locktite on flywheel bolt ?! ... love the build im stocked to see the finish product 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Can you please do a detailed video of the wiring please. I want to eventually do a k swap but I still have trouble understanding the wiring.
john smith buy a harness, save yourself the time
thank you for teaching us the ways of the VTECCC!
No one:
James from Donut Media: BAAAAAAAAAA
10:18 HAAAA GOOT EEEEM
Great info on the K20 still rocking the BBBBBBBBBBBBBB K will be next thou
5 mins ago. Yes notification gang. Keep up with the great work David. Stay the way you are simple, humble and down to earth. Fan from Mauritius
Much appreciated friend, working hard to get this stuff out to you guys so I'm loving the support.
He was like what's all this engine oil doing on the exhaust manifold gasket
Great engine swap video. I'm not sure you guys knew what you were referencing when you said "rusty trombone." Look it up on Urban Dictionary. LOL
Didn't realized David look so young!!!
Love these I learn some much
I wish Cleetus would do an engine break down like this with their engines and explain how everything works
I have an all original unmolested 99 integra gsr 4door which i am reluctantly to put a k series in. Rather rebuild the B18C1.
30minforasn I feel the same way with my em1, It still has a healthy factory block and head but part of me wants to k swap it
Can we name the integra Riko? Its already on your license plate!
That oem header looks like the one kyle made from boostedboiz for his twin turbo set up
You’re in Baton Rouge? That’s cool
Love motor builds hopefully we get to see some 240 sx rebuild too
14:34 Don't forget to grease your shaft before inserting it!
Great video. Thank you for buying a Exedy American clutch. Exedy American clutches are made in mascot Tennessee
Love the build
something happen between him and enjuku racing or something? dont see those guys on the channel anymore and based on the 240 being kinda dead im just interested
You will need a different cluster. That LS cluster ends before the engine redlines.
Now the grind for 2million subs.
What's the project date on that milestone
oh boy was that wheel bearing grease he put on the trans shaft ? that wasn't green Honda high temp Urea Grease like its suppose to have lol
That thing is gonna be a beast
I feel your pain with the harness. Lexus/Toyota engine and transmission harnesses crumble also.

My wiring harness feels soooooo gooooood
That guy is a genius.
No thread locker on used flywheel bolts? Taking a chance on them backing out
Nah. They won't trust. A simple torque down is enough
That little thing looks like my r1 motor that’s sitting on my dining room table.
I bought my Hondata with thim 2 months ago damn i wish u colab with them a while back i need that 5% off cx lol awesome ppl
I would have recommended replacing the rear main seal and the front seal.
I said the same thing to my self
he knows what he is doing that is what I like to see
Loving this build man keep it up im not to sure on the colour though i think a red or lighter blue would of been better but thats just my opinion man
Very good videos keep the good work! Greeting from Guatemala haha
Good information!
I just saw a Honda insight for super cheap & this gives me an idea...
YES, DO IT, AND FILM IT.
how do you handle the lack of a 98 octane petrol in usa (with this jp spec engine) or do u intend to use ethanol?, or just run it at less than optimum power on 91
Question is will it get boosted in the future?

be careful High RPM powershifting 3-4, dont accidentally go into 2nd! OK, have fun be safe!
I could listen to this guy reading tax reports, great video David.
Hello patrons of the internet
I’m going to drive to for 8 hours straight when I get my first vtec enabled Honda
keep DEEZ NUTS.....lol...great tutorial guys
David likes eurobeat
*Intensifies
yep
You should send your car care product to jimmy oakes!
Hey Dudeinblue, can u do a review on Nfs Payback? Just a thought...
Also ik a guy with a 01 integra and swapped its engine with a RB25
Big yikes...25 degree nozzle on the pressure washer and that close to the coil packs....you're a brave dude!
Are u gonna put a big cam in the k20???
Holy information, Batman!
"Make sure you keep them". "Keep what?"..."DEEZ NUTS!"
No blue loctite on fly wheel bolts and also why wait until you had you motor back together with trans to clean it?
loctite on the flywheel bolts is a debated issue, the factory service manual doesn't tell you to put any, and some clutch manufacturers dont recommend it either. Proper torque method is key
@@ripperhigh8001 they also don't recommend you going to 9000+ rpm but that's what's going happen and unless that motor is built and had been harmonically balanced (which it hasn't) the thing can shake with can cause everything to get lose. Loctite doesn't hurt and save you a lot of time a worry.

@@dschybrid1470 exactly. Proper and simple Torque down is enough.
When r u coming back to the northeast again
Light or ultra light flywheel? I got the same, getting it installed in a week
We used the Ultra Light flywheel.
K20a engine made in the England then sent to Japan and now its in the USA your engine has travelled more than me 😂
What sparkplugs specifically did u used for all motor? What is the part # please let me know ●●●●●●●●●●
that stock type r flywheel for sale ?
That k20a is so damn beautiful 🤤😭😭
no rbc intake manifold?
