Guys has anyone seen the new K motors in old gen Honda's, and if you have pic's please post ...

 

the only k motor i have seen is in a eh2. it was on honda-tech.com.

 

i recently jsut read this article about dropping a k-series motor into a ek hatch..i dunno if you consider that old...but it looked pretty sweet. if you want ill go look for it

 

Yeah theres abeen alot of posts, articles, and discussions in the Ef/CRX forum on H-T. Too expensive for my taste though.

 

dude swapping those k series into older hatches is insanely difficult and costly, the ecu for those can only work with the original key and ignition form the car it came from, the ecu will not activate without that key and ignition, and the wiring is mad crazy, i am pretty knowledgable at swapping engines into civics, but i read the article in sport compact car, and man i wouldnt even know where to start for a ef civic, the obd 2 ek hatch was a bitch on wheels from what it looks like...but if u can do it more power to u, and u would be tha man..

 

overall lack of support on those motors makes them undesirable. Good luck getting a hold of a USDM RSX-S or a JDM ITR that are only a year or so old.

 

Read the latest Sports Compact Car, there's a whole article covering K series motors into ek. I wonder would be the same to have one in my integra.

The K-series motor is too expensive and not practical until they become more available. Right now its soo popular because its the "in" thing to do. With the money spent on a K swap, you could build a badass B-series

 

Traitor!

I know what you meant was"with that money you could build 2 bad *** D series engines and have one as a spare"

Ill let that one slide Whitey
