Click here for the DIY... i have it sitting on my server
XproductionZ.com :: Ver. 3.0 - K20/K24 Swap into 7thgen Civic 2001-2005

As i go along let me know if i missed anything so i can add it in
Also if anyone has some pics i can add then that would help too

**note- this is for anyone.. im not on here everyday. So if you need help or something im on my site everyday XproductionZ.com :: Ver. 3.0 on the forums if you need it.

UPDATE 1/7/2007 (Slightly Updated)

**also note that the same thing applies to people who do the k24 swap. Just remember that if you use a k24 that the passenger side mount is different from the k20 passenger mount. If you already have a k20 in your car and wish to use a k24. Hasport and i think Hybrid can supply only the k24 passenger mount so that way it sits the motor lower so it can fit in our cars

**If you need a relay to do the the wire harness for the O2 sensor i can get those for you

Mods done to the car in the swap
Hondata
Type S manifold and Base TB.. (took out the dual intake runners)
Megan Race headers
Megan Race Downpipe
Custom 2.5 Piping
Megan Race Exhaust
Custom 3in Intake




and the Dyno




UPDATE 4/29/07 - Read Below

An RBC manifold on a K20 and/or K24 using Hasport mounts will fit the 01-05 chassis. Just did the swap yesterday. Took out the K20a and put in a K24.







However you will need to trim away at the upper radiator support area to make it fit. You have to trim about 3/4 an inch away just to make it clear.






Minor UPDATE 11/24/07:

For those of you who use a relay other than the type listed in the DIY. There are aftermarket relays but they all use a universal number to identify the pins..

Some of you might remember this image of the relay pins..


Heres is what each number stands for:

1 - 30
2 - 87
3 - 86
4 - 87a
5 - 85\

updated with more k20 specs found on the net
