Yes I am getting ready to send it to a machine shop, and I already have ktuner just was looking for good opinions to build a nice daily with better rods pistons and possible some dic cams nothing too crazy just a fun daily.
Hello everyone i recently learned that my k24a4 in my accord has a blown head gasket due to tensioner bolts broke and water pump not running causing motor to over heat.
Last week my wife's Tsx hydrolocked and she said it was a loud boom then shut off, I assumed it snapped a rod the way she described it then i bought another k24a2 motor.
I got it towed to my work and pulled out the motor and found just a bent rod, the cylinder walls are ok and everything looks fine.
Now i'm thinking of building this motor and putting it in my accord, I want to put new rods of course, pistons and cams and tuning of course. I will be using it as a daily driver i have been seeing some build ideas from k20.org and tsx club but i always found better info on here just want to see what you guys think thanks in advance!!
Yes my heart dropped and that was the first thing that popped in my mind when I seen it. I was just wondering if there are any other possibilities. I guess I finally have a excuse to tell my wife that I want to do k24a2 swap quicker then expected especially since I have ktuner. Im at 202000 miles right now and my tsx has 224000 running great
Hi guys just wondering if anyone here has ran into this problem. I was swapping the oem intake manifold gasket for the hondata gasket and i saw alot of oil mixed with coolant. I looked in the resevior and there was oil on the rubber tube. My car isnt over heating or nothing it drives fine . It also gave me the code p2183 the ect sensor. Just wondering if this has happened to anyone. thanks.
oh wow i understand now well it looks like its time to start finding parts its hard to find tsx head i found k20z and k20a2 type s head for about 500 on craigslist. would i need a rsx ecu for kpro? sorry im kinda of new to kpro.
yeah that sounds good do you happen to know the list of all the things needed? i know a few in mind from reading some topics but doesn't seem to have everything. i have some friends with civics and preludes doing swaps saying k24s suck and i would love to change there mind
hi guys I wanted to do the k24/k20 at first but seeing how much stuff that needs to but done like k pro plus im not the richest man in the world right now and i only have 1 car kinda of bugs me. so i was thinking about just getting the tsx head 06 with 09 pistons and ecu. plus i was thinking of doing to a/t conversion to tsx m/t swap any way. what do you guys think?
