Ok, so I've been searching about it and I think this engine is nuts...2.4L 162hp(accord/crv) and 160lb ft torque...not bad in a civic, I also read of companies putting it in 7th gens and hasport having mounts for it...but has anyone on the site done it? How hard is it really being a larger engine? And ive read for relatively cheap you can get the engine..and in a powerpages I saw that header, intake and exhaust from DC sports gave around 20whp and 15lb ft...not bad, also

The engine is a great engine. Only thing I would consider is the handling. Straight aways you will kick a$$, but what about the turns? Might want to consider that.

^^^^The K24 is not that much heavier than the K20s. Just up grade the suspension to hold the weight.

where can you buy a k24, around how much are they going for? Would it be better than a k20

 
Rep Power: 0

Yeah, anyone know where to get one from and what should be the min. to max. price range???

 
Rep Power: 326

search. try car-part.com. I made a thread about an AWD K24 setup... It's a good thing, but a built D17 from DH and you'll save money, time, and own in performance.

o no... first i say i want a k24, now everybody wants one...blah...

^^^LOL, everyone wants a K20, but thats out of my price range, i think i could afford this, not to mention the performance would kick hella ***...we should be the first 2!

ya..cause the k24 with a k20 RSX type S head isnt being done by super street or anything...and there isnt a 293 hp super charged k24 on the cover of honda tuning...im sure its cause hondaluver wants one..lol



back on topic....what cars does the K24 come in??

 
Rep Power: 336

K24 comes in....

TSX
Element
4 cyln. accords
CRV


the TSX is the one you'd want. 200 HP and like 181 ft./lbs. tq. i'm positive about the hp, but not the torque...but yea..

 
Rep Power: 338

yea.. its hondas new fleet engine...

lots of people want one, but no one is actually doing it.

 
Rep Power: 326

Well said my friend, well said. lol

 
Rep Power: 0

yes i want one too, no RSX here to get a K20 and a lot of 2003 accords around..

but its hard to do it till some does and tell you what you need.

i could not do it, the civic is my daily car and i cant take time of it to experimient with a k24

tsx specs
Displacement (liters)
2.4

Horsepower (SAE net)
200-hp @ 6800 rpm

Torque
166 lbs-ft @ 4500 rpm

Redline
7100 rpm

Compression Ratio
10.5:1

but i saw this also on the acura site


Throttle Control
Drive-by-Wire Throttle System

will this pose a problem??

this seems to be the way to go for all motor..the accord, crv and element all have similar tq but the compression ration is around 9.5 to one....better for turbo maybe.

 
Rep Power: 336

the drive by wire system is what is keeping hondata from attempting an ECU upgrade for the TSX so far.

 
Rep Power: 337

but will that keep the motor from working in our cars??

 
Rep Power: 0

how about this:

K24 block
Custom Pistons and rods
K20A Integra Type R head 8500 rpm
CN turbocharged

Enough speed and power to do something really stupid in.....

 
Rep Power: 0

this will sound n00b but.. whats so special about the K24 block?

i mean:

Why would be better a k24 block with K20A head than a complete K20A engine?

is this for the cheap (price) block?

 
Rep Power: 0

The block is a little cheaper but the reason to do this is because the k24 has more torque (which is what moves you down the road/track). The k20 head has a better compression ratio and I think a higher redline??? There is a few good k24 threads here that you may wanna read, they explain alot.

 
Rep Power: 337

so nobody knows if the lack of a throttle cable will work?? oh well...ill be looking for a wrecked accord and eventually a turbo kit....the 9.7:1 is a little better to start a turbo motor with anyways....double headgasket , maybe an RSX type S head and a nice turbo....should be good

ive been finding K24s out of accords in NC running from 1,000-1500 not bad at all. Maybe can be my graduation present! hehe

alex053, i was wondering the same thing because if i could find a TSX motor thatd be even better

anyone knows if K20 6speed tranny fits K24?

or what other 6 speed transmision could we use?

 
Rep Power: 0

mmmmmmmmmmm, k24.

 
Rep Power: 337

use a TSX 6 speed.


i think it may be easier if we do a k24 from an accord/crv/element and a k20 head to "make" a tsx motor. mmmmmm...i love torque. even just dropping an k24 will make us b series eaters....the B16a is 16hp but only 11tq. i cant wait!!!

 
Rep Power: 0

ME TOO!

still WHAT ABOUT SUSPENSION?

accord one doesnt bolt on.. RSX?

 
Rep Power: 337

anybody know if the lack of a throttle cable will not allow us to put in a tsx motor?
