K24z3 swap possible?

So I just found a K24z3 from an 09 TSX for sale with 69K on it. Guy wants $1,000 for it. Its an auto so the tranny would have to go but he said it comes with everything including alternator, starter, ac comp, intake and exhaust manifolds. I've been searching for days to see if this is possible in my em2 but can't find anything besides a K24a2 and such. From my searches I've found that K24 swaps are tough to do in the first place but what do you think?

ps I wanted to do a K24 swap because a K20a2 is still $1,500 for just the engine (no tranny)

Re: K24z3 swap possible?

you will need to at the least contact rywire (search and you shall find it on internet ) to see if they have solutions for wiring.
then others to see if they have any stuff that they have that you could bolt the engine to the trans, or other solution.

most likely you will need to custom fabricate lots of stuff, have not heard that being done. Pioneers are like that, tinkerers and experimentation.

Also, as they say, with enough $$$, anything is possible

Thanks for the reply and nice pics (especially the first one lol). Do you know how different the K24z3 is from lets say the K24a2? Mostly curious about engine mount locations and physical size.
