450wheel at 9 psi. Gotta love k motors.
That just means it’s a laggy turbo for that power, that’s in comparison to say a smaller turbo making 450 hp at 20 psi. The 450hp on a smaller turbo(sized right) would spool up quicker and have a bigger powerband. Not shitting on it cause it’s all on end goals, I’m assuming he’s looking to increase power and he knows he isn’t in the turbos efficient zone.
It’s always about end goal. If 500hp is your goal you want the smallest turbo possible(sized efficiently) for the quickest spool up possible for said power.
A small turbo on 40 psi for 450hp would dog a big turbo that’s on 5 psi for the same 450hp. The smaller turbo will have the 450hp almost the whole powerband, while the big turbo will only have it at the higher rpm’s. Which for mountain racing you want the smaller turbo to have a wider usable powerband.
@@RagingBullNutsYou understand👍
@@RagingBullNuts I agree to a point.Smaller turbo aren’t usually efficient 40 psi at 450hp, you’re most likely choking out the turbo and blowing hot air so you’re powerband is not wider.
@@veejay120793 I did say “sized efficiently”. The smallest efficiently sized will make for the best power band for this application. 40 psi was just a hypothetical.
@@RagingBullNuts his turbo is definitely sized right, it’s probably the smallest turbo I’ll put on a k24. He probably see full boost at 3500
Thanks Charles and Javier for having me on the channel, had a ton of fun! Thanks everyone for supporting the build! @T3_Auto
What xona x2c turbo is it bro
Beautiful ride!
What is the gearing in the rear end? The spacing seems perfect with the 009
How much was parts and how much was labor?
Nice edit / intro. Sick K24 Swapped FD RX7, love the colour and styling.
Better than LS swap for sure
Agreed, still JDM bro
Any day
Even the 2jz will be great
Slow as fu.. 😂
Ls Fd’s are Kaitlyn jenners…
Man I've been waiting for someone to do this. Would really like to see a high rpm drift car with a K !
Honestly would love this over the rotary as bad as that may sound. The k series is the best 4 cylinder engine ever made
have you heard what rotaries sound like? this is a huge downgrade in sound
@@mm6705 yes the rotary sounds so sick but the reliability is absolutely terrible so it’s s good trade in my opinion
@@TrayneTracks reliability is only terrible if you don’t know what you’re doing
@@billballin6948 yeah if you keep a pallet of apex seals and some other things on deck then I guess it’s ok…lol I’d rather buy a stock k series and make 500hp and still have a reliable daily driver
@@billballin6948says someone that has never owned one. Guaranteed
How about trying out an RX-8 with the same K24 swap
Love the swap
Styling I prefer oem plus on a FD rather than this
So now I want a k24 swapped rx7. My list just keeps getting longer and longer of dream cars.
Nice build! No LS
It’s the perfect swap imo, being an i4 it maintains good weight distribution, and still revs as high as a rotary.
once my rx7 blows up, i'm doing this swap. this looks dope!
Smart man
Beautiful care but the rotary engine sounds so good
Boosted Boi Kyle needs a RX-7 shell for a K SWAP!!!! LFG!
I'm still waiting on the 2jz civic!! LFG!😂😂😂
Thought this was Ben’s rx7 from gears and gasoline 😂😂😂
Engine bay looks exactly like boosted S2K....❤
I truly scratch my head wondering why Honda didnt focus on the K24a as the platform for the S2000. I guess they had already invested so much making the F20c motor...
Easy maintenance 👌
sweet. Took the built LS3 out cause the Turbo system didnt allow the big IC. Seats look terrific.
Sounds strong
Sick build but my brain isn’t putting two and two together with that sound coming out of the rx-7…I think it would’ve been cool to see someone do an all motor super high 10.5k rpm 350whp k24/20 rx-7 so that it keeps that high rpm scream
Funny I was thinking same thing. The sound doesn't match the car and doesn't sound good. But an all motor like you said would be dope.
I agree. Or maybe a s2k swap. 10k all day
Ye put an f20 engine in there, ez 9000 and if you upgrade cams/valves/valvesprings u can get up to 10k no problem
Welcome to the kswap rx7 world. Before you know it it will be AWD and have compound turbos.. ask me how i know lol
Nice, what transmission do you use?
That color is sick!!
better than LS swap, still can't beat the spicy nacho.
Gears and gasoline did the same swap with a k20.
I thought that was what this video was about when I clicked on it, admittedly. I figured they were interviewing those guys. Same rear end setup too.
The gears and gasoline one is ugly though. This one pretty
Thanks for making Rob Dahm throw up 😂
Wow clean build !
That color is crazy.
It would be interesting with a Rotrex to make it feel super NA.
I've got a GT3071R on my K20 and it feels N/A when only running 3PSI and is way faster and drive way better than my rotrex did.
About to watch again to see how many times he said “custom” lol
Very cool build
Will the younger generation please start painting your damn cars please. Hasn’t this wrapped nonsense gone on long enough? Engine, brakes, wheels, paint. It’s been a damn solid formula for everything kickass for generations now!
The best of both worlds!
Good job 👍.
Not a bad one for sure, it's like solving a puzzle with missing pieces.
This might be the best k24 swap yet
Nice car, Looks great and awesome to build the car how you like. Now as a die hard rotary fan with 3 FDs, and they will always be Rotary powered, love i how guys do what they want to their own cars. But one thing, that radiator set up, has the car ever been tracked? because that set up is waiting to fail. NO ducting through the radiator and at that angle with no undertray (or was it removed for the show?), the air is simply going under the car. I guess lucky its not a rotary, but even then I can only imagine a few laps at full send at that thing will cook, same with intake temps with that intercooler set up like that, maybe it works and ide say your lucky if it does but never would i have ever built the cooling like that. Otherwise, great build mate and obviously deals with what you throw at it for your use.
"Jesse, don't do it! He's gotta have at least $100 grand under the hood of that S2000"
@ClickOnProfile1128 bye felicia
Love this Mazda S2000
I think the NA 3 rotor is the coolest setup for a drivers rx7.
NA 3 rotor is a screamer and it makes a lot of power
@@RadDadisRad Its not that much. They make like 280-290whp. 330~ish crank
@@Unicornpirate depends on the build. They can easily make 500whp with porting and custom intake trumpets along with secondary port work. The 26B from Le Mans made almost 700hp.
@@Unicornpirate that's stock, a stock k series ain't making that
I gotta say $35 per t shirt is crazy expensive bro. Cleetus will give you two t shirts for $35 in his mystery bundle. I was gonna try to win that RSX but just can’t spend that kinda money on one t shirt. Do a mystery bundle with two random t shirts for $35 and I’m in.
Love the FD, burnt orange is so cliche though, I'll give it a 5 outta 10 for unique, looks put together by someone with alot of money is all
How did they find engine mounts to hide the vibration
They are custom mounts and do a really good job at keeping the crazy vibration from the k24 to the engine itself.
@@nickbianco2750 nice
Very Interesting👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Sick rx7
Out in Perry park area?
He knows more of cars then his life with glasses😂
Is this the car in cloverworks current giveaway? 👀
Kswap the World !!!!!!
You interviewing the car or the guy?
Seems like it needs a resonator or something sounds like rattling change in a can.
everyone in the comments whining about k swaps and ls swaps like they have the money or know how to do either 🤣
Always the broke ones that hate the most.
You made it more reliable but you definitely made it slower
Crazy how thats nothing to a k series they can make much more
Small side note but the tires are directionally wrong. The drivers side needs to be rotated the the passenger side on each axle.
G&G clone.
Car is amazing
Sick!
Just clicked on the video to say how sad the title made me feel.
Soo damn cool :D
Close your eyes and what do hear when that thing passes you by......
Are the sideskirts on layaway?
Desperately needs some sideskirts
Couldn't ever afford one builds better one lol
What transmission do you use ?
They go over it all in the video 😉
Sweet ride, but a rotary is what makes an RX an RX 🤷
Where's crazy unquie swap?
Lower that thing it’s not a F150 😂
👍👍👍👍👍
Less turbo more seat time lol
Love the car but thats not oem plus styling.
Camera guy could have focused more on the actual car build , engine bay and parts.... couldn't see much in the split seconds of filming.
i hate when they film the guy more than the build
looks good. BUT.. disgraceful
Why not a b-series? They're running 6's, something k-series can't do💯😄
K series running 5.8s you know?
I’m trying to do this build please send me in the right direction please 😊
How do I get my truck on trc

Looks like a mini 2jz
Est un 2jz big turbo serait plus logique meilleur chassis que le supra mk4 plus légère 🤚
The only good replacement for a 13B is a 20B.
Make rotary’s great again❤️
Rotaries 🙄
@@pandroidigital Rotaries❤️
Rotaries r suck smh
@@thegodzilla6481 yo mama suck
Better than LS1 but still blasphemous needs a 3 rotor
The only other engine swap I would do on an Rx7 is an audi 5 cylinder. Give it a little more bottom end.
What's the deal? Why that thing' sitting so tall? Too-tall a tire? Bring it down a little bit. Otherwise tight build, IMO.
Colorado roads suck. Gotta set it high enough to get around without destroying itself.
@@nickbianco2750 got it, makes sense.
Um
He needs to learn to heel & toe!
Won't ever sound like a rotary or have the power band
SMH like the rotary engine is sooooooooooooo drool worthy...they sound and feel amazing, all you need is a quality tuner, and quality apex seals...they are so easy to the drive train... unnng the bridgeported rotaries...like how could you be dreaming about the rx7 without the brap brap idle, and crazy sonorous, yet agressive, high revving rotary sound?
Not my dream, glad the dude is happy...I just smh...like what were you dreaming about my man?
OMG IT GETS WORSE...they put the electric power steering in from a PRIUSSSS like wtf...this guy didnt even care how it drove either...its wild to see what people dream about and how disjointed it is in reality.
Shoot the car while he's talking dude...
There's no way it's 450 WHEEL hp at 9 psi
Vtec makes boost super efficient.
@@TheRyansLion 🤣
@@1carlsworth I don’t know why that’s funny. 8psi is enough on K motors because the vtec head flows extremely well.
A gt35 would make 450 but at 15 psi
But probably not whp
Maybe at the crank. If it didn't crack the liners.
A quick search on a boosted k24 forum gives you all the info needed. So no...not at 9 psi - cheers
@@1carlsworth I saw someone do it on a dyno I thought, it was in a forum years back so maybe it’s my false memory
Enfin il est etait temps le rx7 et un exellend chassis sauf que le moteur rotatif qui et très rapide casse trop facilement donc un vtec k24 était la suite logique pour cette voitures qui n est qu un merveilleux chassis le rotatif qui a etait inventer par les allemands qui l on donner aux japonais leur homologue qui on réessayé dans faire un qui chauffe trop bois autant d huîle que d essence et casse souvent mais n est bon neuf pour 400 m et faut le changer les allemands ne savent pas construire des moteur pour préuve bmw le 3 cylindres turbo c est un moteur Peugeot en faites le cox c est un 2cv changer le 2cv et née en 39 avec la guerre en non fait le cox les 6 cylindres BMW sont surment des moteur de traction c15 voler à la seconde guerre mondial si personne parle sa va continuer il copie les français en faite mais a l epoque de Napoléon c était des bouseux dans leur campagne qui on voulue devenir pareille que c est chevalier a fusillé sinon c etait des gens qui travailler la terre avec un roi bidon qui coucher a droite ou gauche seule le rois avait la belle vies dans sont châteaux et tout les paysans autour attendait du roi des choses mais lui avait le feux au pantalon seul ca femme avait la tête sur les épaules comme dab les femmes sont plus fortes mentalement 🙏😑🤲🇫🇷👉🤚
No no no no😲😲😲😲😲😠😠😠😠
driver needs to work on his downshifting...
May as well put electroc motor in ,
Hate Honda put k engine in it
Sorry love the car but I can not listen to dude go umm any more . Umm
No
Sounds terrible
the sound does not match the car, the sound of a rotary or v8 would be dope too
🤮
blasphem swap
K swapping cars like the RX-7 is beyond cringe. I know the RUclips algorithm likes ridiculousness for attention, but this is 🤢
You clearly have no engine knowledge to even try knocking the k. There is a reason it's one of the most used engines for swaps in all sorts of cars, rx7 being one of them as its way more reliable than any rotary. Did i mention how the k loves boost? unopened blocks pushing 500+ hp. Its literally one of the best 4cyl engines you can build today.
No car companies sell rotors other than Mazda and yet you still get people swapping them out to “be different“ and it’s an rx7….😂🙄
What's wrong with the K swap? Don't underestimate the power/weight/balance and low maintenance of these K motors
I'd much rather have a k-swap over a LS swap.
I agree this is so cringe. Keep that in a hatchback or Hondas. Rotaries sound way better and power that can be made from these motors are unimaginable from the size. Properly maintained they are reliable
I wonder what daddy does for a living?
