    Just for clarification, there are many K20 variants, but if this motor is from an FD2 then it is K20a (FD2). The K20a in the FD2 is different from the K20a in the DC5-R. The K20a is superior to the K20z1, K20z3, and K20a2 that we got in the US/Canada. However with enough modification they can all be competitive with each other. This motor is stroked so its essentially a K22a

    • @IaintTrynaGoOutLikeBIGnPAC
      @IaintTrynaGoOutLikeBIGnPAC ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The K20z3 is the only equivalent to the FD2 k20a. The only differences being z3 has balance shaft oil pump, the cams and pistons are different and of course RBC on z3 vs RRC on the FD2.

      @TassieLorenzo ปีที่แล้ว

      @@IaintTrynaGoOutLikeBIGnPAC "The K20z3 is the only equivalent to the FD2 k20a" K20Z4 from the FN2 Type R is equivalent to FD2 K20A AFAIK, both with the RSP cylinder head casting that flows a little more (but the JDM version with the different cams, higher-comp pistons and non-balance-shaft oil pump). The FA5/FG2 Civic Si K20Z3 has the older RBC cylinder head casting that flows a little less AFAIK so it's not quite 100% equivalent, it also used the older Accord Euro-R RBC intake manifold as well as you say.
      (Where the FD2 has the RRC intake manifold and the FN2 has the longer runner Accord-style RSP intake manifold.)
      The Civic Si's also had the older gear ratios, older final drive ratio and older heavier flywheel, where both the FD2 and FN2 got the revised items (5.1 final drive instead of 4.8, 5kg flywheel instead of 8kg). The FD2 gearbox and LSD-version of the FN2 gearbox are 100% identical as far as I know.
      The shifter mechanism in the car is exactly the same in all 8th-gens as far as I know (be it FD2 Type R, FG2/FA5 Civic Si and FN2 Type R).

      "The K20a is superior to the K20z1, K20z3, and K20a2 that we got in the US/Canada. " Between a DC5 Type R K20A and a DC5 K20A2 (Type S or Australian version Type R), the only differences inside the engine are just the camshafts and compression ratio of the pistons AFAIK. Slightly more aggressive cam profiles, and 11.5:1 compression instead of 11:0 (then 11.7:1 on FD2 Type R).
      Everything else (valve springs, valves, conrods, crankshaft etc) is identical as far I know for the same generation K20 engine (noting 8th gen Civic Si used the older Accord Euro-R engine as the basis and not the second-gen K20). Identically the first of the K20s had exactly the same valve springs as the S2000!
      The rest of the power difference was from the slightly bigger throttle body (64mm on JDM DC5 Type R, 62mm on DC5 Type S or Australian model Type R) and 4-2-1 exhaust instead of 4-1 exhaust. So most of the power difference is "bolt-on" stuff. 🙂
      (Then you have the later international version 8th-gen K20Z engines using balance shaft oil pumps of course.)
