K Swapping My Honda Civic - Episode 3
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ย. 2024
- I've decided to K swap my lovely little Honda Civic! The K24 engine is the king of Honda motors and it's swapped into almost everything because it's such a great motor! I'm putting a K24 from a TSX in the EK Hatch to replace it's current B16b. The B series was a great motor setup and I've had a lot of fun with it but it's time to move on to the Mighty K20 / K24! With a TSX K24 and K20 head, i'm shooting for the most amount of power possible out of a naturally aspirated, non built motor! We'll see what happens!
Special thanks to Ktuned for sponsoring this build!

Loved the video, I love how K-Tuned makes basically everything lol. *While installing the lower control arms, my grandpa called me, saying he fell and broke a hip. Thankfully, K-Tuned makes some carbon fiber hip replacement*
He's a Honda fan boy everyone knows the TRD stock titanium hips are more reliable
I need a honda engine in a BMW e46
with V-tech of course ;)
If this were possible...... Idk if you were being serious or just joking.

As a 17 year old, this inspires me to someday build my dream car even though it's a little bit old. Can't wait to see that thing run!!
Your doing gods work.
at least you'll do your own work. respect
Just Stick to it man. When someone says anything is possible, they are not lying. I am 28 and finally got the my Civic SI I've been wanting for 6 years. It feels good and now making it my own is even better
@@TheEdiaz91 Congrats!
Same
Ben: I am going with softest engine mounts
Also Ben: I am going with almost the stiffest springs because race car
Hahahaha fair point. The sacrifice-benefit ratio just isn't there for me for stiffer engine mounts. It doesn't give enough benefit to justify rattling my fillings out. These 62a mounts are perfect
@@GearsandGasoline The 62A will be fine, especially having all the mounts it will have a cumulative effect and the engine will stay in place. I have a 70A for rear lower mount and it rattles the dash a little too much, but the 62A I have as a top torque mount is perfect. Shout out to Hasport for always making great stuff
An engine mount with metal "bushings" would make the car rattle pretty hard at high rpms.
@@GearsandGasoline I have 75A mounts in my Civic and I got used to them pretty quick, the one thing I'm not really a fan of is the vibrations when idling. I don't notice it anymore unless I'm idling in drive with the AC on, then it's slightly annoying.
I had 60a mounts on my old RSX-S, definatly had more vibrations than stock, but my old mounts were all torn, so compared to nothing, it was stiff. Lol
I'm so happy after seeing this notification
Don't let this distract you from the fact that Hector is gonna be running 3 Honda Civic's with spoon engines. On top of that he just came into Harry's and ordered 3 t66 turbo's with NOS's and a Motec System Exhaust.
Dimmze 🙄 so original.....
It's not how you stand by your car, it's how you race it. You better learn that.
He's got enough nos in there to blow himself up, period!
Nooooo monicaaa
“Toretto!”
I wish I had this amount of disposable income, nice build.
How much does this project cost? Ballpark number is fine.
richard koo i think he said he bought the car for 5 grand so I would say he’s spent at least 12-13k total
K tuned sponsored him sooo 🤷🏻♂️
I bet there isn't much money in this, must be nice to have a company upgrade your car for free so you can make money off TH-cam content.
@@Cobb both Ben worked their ass off to get to what they are today though. hardwork pays off.
He’s lucky he don’t live in CA, he would only get a day to enjoy it after that it would either get stolen or get pulled over and state ref. We can’t have anything nice here
State ref? What's that?
Mr. Midnight pretty much they make it illegal to drive
We can lane split on motorcycles which means you can use any bit of available road. I've ridden in 46-50 states (including Alaska) and CA is by far the best state to ride in, full stop. But yeah, no nice car stuff. Stay well.
Mr. Midnight defective vehicle, not safe to drive on street I’m guessing. That’s what it’s like to drive in Australia, my car got defected because I had no muffler on it.
What do you mean we have nice apartments in dtla. Cool coffee shops to go to with our cool cars. Canyons and beach coastal drives 30 min from center of the city. Cool vegan resteraunts and lots and lots of RAMEN SHOPS! Oh and dont forget more care youtubers than any state! And car performance shops!
This car is so sweet, I have never even owned a civic and I want one now
"what a time to be alive" too soon
Too soon jr
@cha vang fair enough, i mean the content is good so im not hating. videos like these put solid EK civic prices updward. love the whole NA thing. but i heard that comment and giggled, given the current state of the world.
This has gotta be the most detailed and explained swap I’ve seen on here 🤤
This is literally my 10th time watching these k swap videos, i can't get enough! keep up the awesome work!
I just bought my first K swap parts for dc2. Love having this for inspiration
I really like this build! I would sandblast/paint the rusty suspension parts so it blends better with the new stuff.
Getting some coffee ☕️. Thanks for some killer quarantine content homie!!💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
What an absolute treat! I think it’s going to run over the 260 hp mark! 🙌🏼
Ali easy it’s built
Really wish y’all did more than 1 video a week!!!!
Daniel Gillrup honestly
Fr
I think the quality of the vids makes it worth waiting a week for each
Daniel Gillrup facts
@@emanuelcorlat7261 Fair. But a man can dream!
I'm all the way from South Africa and i feel so inspired every time i watch this channel. i dont even have a car but you guys make it worth the while.
Man I love Kseries . I wish i can put it in my Proton but the government wont allow it .
Commander Cody what kind of proton do you have and where do you live ?
Keep it up bro..
There's a K24 swapped Proton Persona, so its been done.
Do it anyways, they dont have to know, since they keep more from us anyways haha.
would be nice to have it in my proton wira
Oh yeah you will need a sway bar on the rear suspension.
And the top mount strap brace on the front struts towers.
And nothing wrong with rear drums.
the last time ive seen so many hand shakes was before corona 16:25 - 16:40
Hahaha I should probably specify that this did occur before the Rona.
Throwback when handshakes were a thing !
It's really nice to have a SHOP allow the owner to "WRENCH" with them!
Almost like an "Internship"...
Your Civic is coming together quite beautifully!😎
Take care,

This thing is going to be awesome! Well it kind of already was but even more so now 🤙
Pleased for you bro 🙂
These guys strike me as folks who actually know what they are doing. Loving this build.
Hope all those Ktuned parts dont leave you stranded somewhere.
such a nice shop, you can tell hes good cause he doesnt use funnels or ball joint installer tools - a real master of the trade! Loved this video
Double check your TPS sensor. The TPS sensor is installed incorrectly, it needs to be rotated 180 degrees
Use to have a 1999 one. The two mods that made the most difference for my lap times were: a Neuspeed rear sway bar and rear disc bake conversion. The rear sway bar allowed me to dive the car with the throttle and the rear disc brakes to brake much later without overheating or cracking the front. On the street, these made almost no difference, except the sway bar made the car more fun on snowy back roads.
Love this K swap :D was waiting on this video all morning
Lars Driesen I was waiting for you all morning
You guys doing great job with this project. It’s the best feeling assembling a Honda with K series under the hood and all these upgrades. Can’t wait for the next episode! Keep it up and stay safe. 🤜🤛
Think this is gonna run exactly 300hp or at least 298hp
CANT WAIT TO SEE THE FINAL PRODUCT
im hoping more lol.
It’s a stock block k24 with 2.2 DC cams and a stock intake manifold. On e85 maybe 250 at the tires. If you want 300 stock block you need 3.2 or bigger cams , sk2 ultra manifold and head work.
@@PolishedMobileDetailing503 Exactly, there is NO way in hell this thing comes close to 300.. To reach 300whp, he would need bigger cams, higher compression pistons that would actually see gains from e85, and yes a valvetrain upgrade. tbh, I think he is lucky if he hits 250 wheel.. It depends on the dyno, but here, there is no way he would see over 250 with just 2.2 cams.
Yep. Agreed. I'm thinking 230ish whp MAYBE. NA is hard and extremely expensive to achieve high hp. Gonna need to bore it alot more than just RBC and 80mm throttle body. Gonna need bigger piston bore, way bigger fuel setup including injectors, and go straight race fuel and not E85, etc. It wouldn't be street drivable in order to do so. Just my opinion but based on past experiences. I'm a NA guy. I've owned plenty of boosted cars but I love natural NA torque for low HP track racing. Regardless, car is going to run amazing for daily drivability and track days.
ΒΞγΘΠĐτhΞGΓΔνΞ GΔMΙИG ΔΠĐ MΞĐΙΔ I’m hitting 200whp from a stock 2zz short block with just cams. no injectors no intake manifold and no tb. i dont think he need much more to hit 250whp with the k24.
This thing is just fantastic. Had a friend who put the bits from his wrecked ITR into a (very light) 92 EX hatch in the early 00's. That thing was an absolute blast on a track and this is orders of magnitude nicer. Stay well.
All those tools and no funnel! just kidding, great video, I've been looking forward to part three. Congrats and stay safe.
The fact that I keep rewatching this episode probably isn't healthy...or do I just need yall to put out Ep. 4?
Well, now I've got something to do #covid-19
I had an EK with a rear sway bar..FELT AMAZING
K is the way.!
Yunno it
I think it’s fair to say that the Honda community has engine swapping down to a fine art by now.
I'm loving this series! Love from the Philippines ❤
Yeah Now I see another filipino fan I thought I was the only one
You guys need the Euro / Japanese mirrors, EK9 tail lights, thin side moldings + weld and smooth out the wiper hole, paint the licence plate frame and trunk.
I like that the video has the same amount of likes as views. That means everyone else also likes then watches!
Umm I think it's 38k views and 3.8k likes....
@@romar8228 lmfao
I think it says 80K views and 7K likes!?!?!?
I commented at 11 likes/11 views 🙄
If you plan on driving in the winter, I highly recommend to clear coat all your shiny aluminum parts. I installed a Carli lift kit in my truck with a set of King Shocks and after one mild winter in Maryland, The shocks had corrosion and pitting that a coat of clear coat would have prevented.
"What a time do be alive" Yeah, not the right time to be saying that :D
rear disks do make a difference (even more on track) and even more so with proper portioning valve. Read up on it a little but nice r&r and swap to K series. Looks good and glad you have mounted front axles for this motor swap. Nice job.
It will make 272hp
@Quentin Hayden not sure if youre a bot but if youre not, why would you do that? if you feel its necessary to do that your relationship is gonna fail
Quentin and Henry be on that scammer grind hard lol
The flywheel & organic clutch pieces of this are really good information for newer modders out there - you might be tempted to go as light as possible on your flywheel, or go with a synthetic material clutch, but unless you "need" to do those things or are doing an all out 100% track only build, you shouldn't, it will ruin the drivability of your car. In the realm of moderate power adders, you can often get an organic/stock clutch with a stiffer pressure plate for increased holding power, your pedal gets a bit stiffer, but the clutch will feel natural and linear as apposed to nothing, nothing, nothing, ALL THE GRIP.
I guess we should stay Ktuned for the next episode.
Best part of Saturday mornings isn't sleeping in, no work, or cartoons. It's Gears and Gasoline videos!
Dude, I think the horse power went down... You paint the red brace to black. That's at least 50hp loss yo
Absolutely not dramatic. Love it.
No one has ever told me about the roll center when lowering a car, a little more explanation please 😅
Duncan De hulst agreed lol
Go over to honed developments website. They got good information and also products for 90s civics 👌🏽
Just know we're all grateful you're still pumping out videos like this while most of us are stuck at home. Thank you for that.
Take a shot every time ben says “on track” hahaha
Being a Supra owner, I am enjoying your build. Track days will be more fun once the Honda is done.
Imo the type r badges need to come off. Cause it isn’t a type r.
I had to double take when I saw the rear drums!
weasel81 I see your point but in the end it’s supposed to be a replica. Not like he’s gonna try to sell it as an original.
This video series is setting the standard for K-swap videos thanks for all the hard work man
This dude is the typical encyclopedia type of car guy that knows all the specs and all the info but can’t replace a ball joint 😂😂😂😂😭😭😭🤦♂️
i personally would never do this build just not my thing but i cant stop watching. The production quality and speaking dont forget the visuals go unmatched. Plus that throttle body is boss. i gotta hear this thing pull
I think it’s going to just miss260hp, I’m saying 250hp
i think 260wheel is possible with all the bolt ons
I think it will do around 260hp at the crank
I made 225 wheel with my k set up only thing I don't have is ported manifold
I say 260- 265 since hes on E85. I made 262 with the same cams on 91 octane but i have 12:5:1 comp.
This build series is getting me through quarantine, guys! I’ve been watching since before you quit your jobs to do this full time and I just want to say thank you! This is some of the highest quality automotive content on the internet right now🙏
Should be called someone else k swapping my civic
Some people dont understand when i tell them to unbind the suspension bushings when you lower any car or truck. Thank you for mentioning that in the vid.
Awesome build, but I think you forgot a key component: Security.
Your car is already an eye-catcher to thieves. Now it's going to be both an eye-catcher and an ear-catcher (if that's even a thing).
Good build. Love a well made and professional video series.
Next part ASAP!!! Btw, i am going to this builder in 4 days! Super stoked!
That k24 is a beauty she’s pretty much there just the little things now, and hp wise Ima say probably 250whp so pretty close to what your trying to hit maybe more who knows either really excited to see the final result.
Man!!! Watching the unboxing of these K-Tuned parts is Golden Car PORN!!! :X
Probably 1 of the best videos i have ever sen on the internet ! very well filmed and presented !
You're just working my dream right now! Awesome build. Subtle. Simple. Straightforward.
Your literally making my dream car!! I hate love you for it!! thanks for bringing me on for the ride!
Fantastic videos. I am glad you guys are uploading such quality stuff for us viewers. That ug after firing up the engine shows how much you actually love cars.
spent 10gs on my camaro 6.2 for the 2020 season and my civic still walks it :( i cant wait until i have enough saved to go K !! love the tech advice in the video
Hands down best car modding channel on TH-cam ! Keep it up
Im not a honda guy. But i really appreciate all the time thats being spent on this. Going to be sweet!
It’ll make around 250 BHP. Also K20Z3 head will not disappoint, you’ll love it
Fun fact: Ron way back about in the mid 2000's had a White K-Swap CR-X. I believe he(or his wife) blew the motor running down Rockfalls Raceway. Another little fun fact: Ron brought my friend a distributor when his coil went out on his integra in 2005-2006 at around 11pm.
So much easier on lifts and its always a good thing to have the right tools!
uufff super all that process I congratulate you, at this moment in Colombia I am in something similar but with a mazda 323 bg .. and I know the emotion that feels to hear the machine .... I have been following it for a long time .. greetings from Colombia
Amazing that ktuned have sponsored this. I'm currently under going a k swap in a Mini Cooper S, can't wait to get it on the road! Keep it up guys.
Brother u did the whole k tuned suspension too awesome for that is my plan im doing on my build.... cant wait to see this rig drive
I love civics and k swaps i want do do a civic k swap when i am older but sadly i am only 11 yrs old
Love ur guys vids they are insparational and entertaining
Keep up the good work
Learning this stuff at 11 years old? Your dad must be so proud! There is hope for the next generation yet!
@@cr4zygoose201 thank you very much and my dad is proud of me hope u have a good day
Those bushings on the control arms are mint! Just need to be rotated thats all...
Nothing better to do in quarantine than to watch your videos in crispy 4k. Thank you sir for your effort you put in to these videos!
Looks like I saw a 3" exhaust going in, so 250whp- 260whp is right where you should be with your flex fuel setup. The build is looking amazing so far. The suspension changes alone will make a world of difference. Pair that with 250 wheel horsepower, and this little Civic is gonna fly! Good luck with her!
If i havent said it before ill say it again..i am enjoying this series so much!! Looks so good!! Cant wait to see it go!
excellent work, it is the most detail and I wanted for so long for a kswap, thanks , cant wait to see dyno and track test, thanks!
Quarantine is no more boring with these extremely satisfying k series videos!!!
This thing is loud! I live a few blocks away from ASMotorsports and heard all the pulls the other day lol.
Feeling bored in home due to lock down this is the best 18:18 of my day thanks guy's keep it up #stayhome#staysafe
I’m glad that I found this after you finished the build lol these cliffhangers
It's so cool that you can get such dope aftermarket parts that suit your exact needs, dang.
Oooh yeah! you can't make this stuff up. Good job guys. Gears and Gasoline, your content presentation is top notch.
Just clicked play and already had to hit the thumbs up. It's a Gears and Gasoline video, you just know it's going to be amazing.
You're the reason I chose DC 2.2 cam setup 😎
S2K cluster and nsx or spoon bbk will be icing on top. Should be making good 240-260 whp.
260 is a good goal I’m with you on that. Such a good amount of power. my old gen one mazdaspeed pushed about that much and it was practical and sufficient when I’d need to roll race anyone. I’m excited to see it on track!
Cool build man! Little bit of a mixed purpose with the parts tho, putting super high spring rate suspension in, then keeping rubber bushings and soft engine mounts. The springs will have by far the biggest bearing on how "streetable" this car is and that's the thing you have gone full race on.
Swaybar is a must! Especially when you upgrade it to 200 HP
I can't wait to see the finished product!
I don’t know why your videos are not on TV! Your quality is amazing! Then again keep it here so producers or executives don’t mess this up!
so fun to watch this man! and definitely will make more than 260hp.. saw someone with a stock k24 bottom and z3 head make 260. can’t wait for next vid!
Really enjoying this series, done so well and with those details that some like to hide/or only hint at - this is more of a "here is something awesome, exactly why it's awesome so you can replicate either in part or full if you would want to". Awesome stuff.
I swear every video that gears and gasoline uploads hits different than other car youtubers
