Thanks for taking your time and not B.S people. Straight to the point, and to let people know that you can also build a motor for cheap, have fun and say I have a 10 sec car.
I want to take my 05 Accord lx and take it from its stock 160hp to about 250hp, it’s an amazing car and I think just a little more power after supporting mods would make it a perfect car for me ❤
Your accord have a 9.7 compression. Change that to 12.4:1 and add cams. Then get a catless header. Also get a tuner. You should now be close to 230-250. Dont forget premium gas only from now on.
Yeah...your accord has the weaker k24 low compression, mods wont get you to 250hp. It's cheaper to just buy a $850 k24a2 engine and swap in...or ebay turbo your stock engine.
I inherited a 05 Civic EM2 EX SE 5 speed and I was never in the import scene maybe bc I just never opted to buy one. But since I've own this civic I've fallen In love with it I've now owned it for about 2 years and seeing the K series engine and the potential it has has opened my eyes. The only thing for me has been and I'm sure we can agree is that there is a lot of misleading information on the internet. I like your channel and what you guys are doing so my plan now is to swap a k series in my EM2 thanks again for your channel maybe one day we can meet at the track.
This is why , when I found your channel today! I knew I found a gem on TH-cam. You guys are awesome, you know what you're talking about and I'm a fan of that. Keep making great content about Honda's. I appreciate you for all that.
Currently halfway on doing my straight k24 swap into my ek hatch , thanks for all the input and I can relate since I'm in the kinda semi budget buld on my motor , maybe one of the best straight forward vids , keep it up and more power to your channel !!
Dang..thanks dude for all your videos on this motor, including your 1000HP build. I have learned a good bit watching here on this channel. Just wanted to say thanks for the uploads.
So good that your sharing knowledge Very interesting and open not to mention able to save people money and get them into to motor sports more people competing So many others just want to make huge money from others Great attitude From Australia
From @10:00 onwards about ppl being secretive vs sharing the knowledge, you get more bees with honey💪 it’s not like helping others will undo what you have accomplished or your wisdom… even if those types of ppl were to speak out what they know, it’s still not going to hurt them in the kind of way you would imagine it would bcs it STILL takes months and years to be physically capable and knowledgeable enough to a apply that advice and execute it well enough to be any kind of a threat while still assuming you also have the “connections” of social network and the time and money to buy parts and labor services. The real crowds that might be a competitive threat are those on the track as often as you, not the ones spending half their time on YT and still in phase 1 or 2 of this racing demographic. So what you said and how you put it is a mature and noble way to clear that statement because… todays newcomers are tomorrow’s future for motor sports UNLESS yall want this whole drag scene to go fully electric 😂… OMG imagine the crowd on the bleachers wearing Bluetooth headphones so that we could all hear the AI simulated exhaust on the electric cars on the drag strip 😆.
After watching this video alone I’m now subscribed to you. I have a 2000 Honda Civic coupe and this is great for any other questions I have or concerns I need for my k swap build.
Ive already been looking into this. Swaping a k24 into my 98 hatch takes more than a motor. Lol so i built and daily the single cam for reliability for fun. But k is next!
I appreciate your thinking. I want to build a Honda for a dirt midget. Weight is a big factor. Can you tell me what a long block weighs? Including pan and valve cover. Thanks, friend
Great build great Channel y'all keep up the good work and I'll keep watching. Y'all switch me over to K series so you're doing something right considering a drag race a b series car for over 20 years.
DIYMike your content is great man! Watching you from Philly! I have been out of the Honda scene for 10-12 years. But I am looking to getting back into it.
Hi. I am closely looking all of your engine build videos. I am from Serbia/Europe where Hondas are not even in third plan, here everything is about VW and Audi :( Anyway I have Honda Accord CU2 Modulo 2009, or Acura TSX 2009 with K24Z3 engine and AT. What are your thought on making it 300-400 horses and still be like daily driver? Thanks in advance
Some times downforce isn’t good. Plus too much is not good. But it’s a front wheel. The objective with the downforce is to put pressure on that certain area. Preferably where the power is. U really would need it in the front. But it’s like adding weight. U know this. But some others don’t. It’s just a fad for them. It’s not. Wings actually serve purpose. Lip kits are the Same deal.
In road racing all of this applies. And yes a wing or spoiler will and can help for stability. Look at Audi TT recall. They added a little spoiler because this fwd car had too much rear lift causing crashes
@@claudedottin1312 absolutely 💯 percent. But for some it’s just a fashion statement. I don’t believe in the fashion statements. Trust me I’d love to have something that makes my suv looks serious. But it’s not. It doesn’t have 1000 horse and going 300 mph down the street 😂 so I don’t.
I’m in the process of building a k24/k20(tsx/Z1) since my z1 started knocking. I wanted to go atleast 11.5.1 compression and was looking into RL5 pistons. However, I was reading some forums and RL5 pistons have some clearance issues or what not. Wanted to know your inputs on which pistons to go with. Thanks again for the vid and thanks for sharing! Subbed!
@@ds-zd9qz sounds about right, dont really want to get them if i have to shave it. I guess ill go with some NRP cast piston since its jus a street build.
I wouldn't say that loosing 2mph because of putting the duckbill on the car was dumb, because me personally when you get into the 9s that extra bit of down force does make the car feel alot more stable when you get over 130mph in the 1/4
What fuel? There's a local guy here in Sac low budget k20/24 drag cartel camshaft/ Nippon piston/ rod, full interior street car on pump e85 running low 11s.
I have a 2002 Honda Civic ex coupe, I have a 2002 Honda CR-V engine that I think is a k24, I wanna build that engine but keep a/c power steering, and auto trans. I want to turn my car into more of a show type car but I wanna scare people a lil bit to 😂😂 what mods would you guys suggest to crank out 250 hp or so without turbe
hey i recently picked up a k20 head i bought the same skunk2 stag 3 cams, you mentioned you got ur head ported is that optional or can you give me a breakdown how that works
I'm interested in an 300hp NA k series engine that will be reliable to last a 2 days of w2w racing at 8 hours each day. Would there be a cost effective way to get an engine like that?
No, you’d have to go full blown, forged pistons etc. high end, for most stuff. Change everything but the block, head and crank. Except you’d also need to port the head so if you’re not doing that yourself, gotta buy a cnc ported k24a2 head. Look up 9 or 10k rpm NA built motor builds on TH-cam, there’s a few.
My wagon puts down 220whp fbo and still gets 30mpg highway on road trips/daily driving . All depends on the tune and your driving habits. Key factor on this car is weight. My old rsx s, fbo got better gas Mileage with the same power but less weight and the 6speed transmission.
@@diymike have you noticed any chain slap? Or tensioner stress? As I've been told that skunk2 cams are too agresive. Just wanna check with you before pulling the trigger on a set of stage 3's

A2 swap from an 04-05 TSX will get you well on your way. Drops right into the 03-05 Accord. Just need a tuner to disable EGR.

Have a question. Wich series at the button you used? And what do you think about the nippon rods and pistons for k24A jdm
Also a lithium bank or super caps will help feed the engine it's crucial electric power.
What fuel Injectors did you use for this build? Keep up the great content!!
