K20A2....what do you guys think?

[MikeW]

I know it's not exactly bolt-in like the h22's we love, but don't those bad boys dish out like 220+ ??? And since some of us, myself included, have sedans, if we were to drop even a good 200hp h22, wouldnt the hp be diluted by the weight factor? I mean an h22 will push 200 hp in a tiny prelude and a k20a2 in an RSX, but in a 4 door accord?? Tell me what you think.

[Crazemonie]

it will happen eventually..until then...dream on

my buddy is painting his civic now.....dropping in a k24....expects to run mid 12's..on a stock motor!

I prefer the k24...BUt then i would slap a k20 head and make it a frankenstein =D.

well a few people on here hav gone over a k20 swap. i think maybe even a k24 swap. but ur new so u shouldnt get blasted out 2 bad.

if we could find some1 2 make the mounts then it shouldnt b much of a problem. shoot next year ima try swapin a RB26 in2 a cb7. yeah i kno a whole bunch of stuff has 2 b dont but ill do it tho. ill hav my own shop then anyway.

but if u search ull find a few people talkin about the k20 and k24 swap(i think theres a k24 )

I think a lude weighs more than the accord? and 200hp is 200hp no matter what car its in..

just get an H22, your life will be so much easier

Hasport is developing mounts for the 4th gen to accomodate the motors as for when it comes out thats a dunno so far. Shawn.Hayden i think has emailed them asking the progress on the setup.

I'm probably gonna end up putting in an h22 just cuz. IF i ever get the money to do the drop, i can't decide which h22 to do. I mean i wanna do one out of a 97 'lude but its got that ATTS thing and i dont wanna deal with all the hassle of the OBD conversion etc. I just want a straight swap. BTW-- a local import shop quoted me $3000 for everything--the engine, the swap, the wiring, the ecu, everything. Is that a god deal???

AND, crazemonie--how did you go about paingting the mouldings? did you pull them off, paint them and put them back on or did you do it on the car? if you pulled em off, how did you get them to go back on?

ok...it wouldnt even let me into the engine list link..being a noob sucks! I have to come up with assloads of questions/answers(posts) that no one else has posted otherwise i cant utilize the site. i cant reply to certain threads...I'll admit that looking around before i ask questions IS a good idea, ive put my foot in my mouth at least twice on this site and am hopefully getting better. I dont ask questions cuz i wanna know whats cool, i ask cuz i wanna know what worked for certain ppl and because it feels good to hear yay or nay from fellow cb owners.

I know im gonna put in an h22, which one, ill figure out, but in the mean i do have side projects of my own and i plan on doing some DIY's ive seen on the site. It just gets frustrating when i cant even reply or link to threads.

accord sedan weighs 2780 lbs, prelude weighs about 2900 or some pounds. the sedan actually weighs less than the coupe so.... dropping an h22 into an accord makes it faster than having a stock prelude.

[19accord92]

the accord sedans weigh 2784 pounds. the preludes weigh at least a hundred pounds more, the accord coupes weigh about 2800 pounds, at least 20 lbs more than the sedans, but if you're a fatty, it doesnt matter which car you're in, lol jk, anyways dropping h22 in the accord sedan makes it probably as heavy / slightly lighter ( probably like 20 lbs or so ) than a prelude so..

Can't wait for those mounts to come out and see someone do the k20 or k24 swap into our beloved cb7. But then again, the motor will probably cost a hell of a lot more than a h22 just because it's newer. But it will be nice because the k engines are beast.

[gloryaccordy]

Accord weights depend on the model. My EX is a cool 3,000#...but a DX might be like 2700#. ABS, A/C, and power everything= mad weight.

it'll be soo swt if eventually evrybody puts a k20 engine into a cb7
