Got a Q for all of u. I don't have much knowledge about k20 motors so here is my Q: Is is possible to put a k20 motor into a 5th gen civic?

 

[bklynEG]

no offense but have you had your head under a rock or something.

 

[dracing]

yea probably I'm more of a b16/b18 person

 

[Civicdreams]

yeah you can put it in but do you really wanna shell out that kinda loot bro?? ask yourself that first.......
Engine$$$$$$$$
then getting someone who actually knows how to go about it that has a good rep...
$$$$$$$SERIOUS $$$$$$
better off with a B-series

you can do it, im not sure is hasport has mounts out yet, but if anyone does they do. but its really really expensive to do, especially the labor of putting it in.....especially when the motor itself is like 4-5 grand

nah motors are getting cheaper, you can pick on up for 35 ish, and yes hasport has the mounts and yes its bad ass, soon they will replace all B swaps as B engines become more and more scarce and the more RSX's are totaled.

k-series motors are better motors than all the others out right now, the only thing holding them back is price and swap difficulty.....once those factors go away there will be a lot more fast hondas out there

yeah soon enough k series is going to be running s**t around town. they make the same horsepower( if not more) weigh less than the b series and are able to be 6 speed

it will happen, its inevitable, K20a from a ITR complete w/LSD is running 54 hun

Most K20 swaps look like ass....give it another year and people will doing it right

 

[Going-West]

explain please.......

heres the only pic i could find in a hurry 7th gen

I think it look sexxy

639.99 for the mounts, too bad its only 3 mounts not 4

 

[Going-West]

this is one of my fav 7th gens..and its got a k20.....forgot his SN though, hope he dont mind

 

[Civicdreams]

thats some bad ass power..........man that s**t swapped would be running some serious juice in my Ej1..........
yea but give it like another year man the performance parts selection is gonna grow drastically and there will be alot of tuner shops out there that will be able to help you better....

 

[nd4sped]

SEARCH IS YOUR FREIND.

there are a ton of topics on this on this very board.

 

[k-series]

Agreed, the swap is pretty straight forward. While more expensive initially, the fact that it's still a production motor is where you have the benefit of getting NEW parts, people are focusing their tuning on it, and it's just bad ass. (Beefier block than the B-Series.)

...then again, I'm biased.
