    Thanks, guys, for putting this together. I will be one of your first customers for the mounts/brackets, axles, and any sort of plug and play wiring kit. Have a J35A8 from an RL sitting in storage with the aluminum TL subframe, but now know to probably put the subframe up for sale. You've paved the way for this swap, and for that am truly grateful.

    6:24 Flows the BEST and it is 7 lbs lighter than the bigger 3.5/3.7 manifold that flows the same as this one. Also magnesium is better for heat soak and such. Supposedly stays cooler than the other. 17160-RCJ-A01 part number

    Interesting swap I have a 08 tsx 6speed, a few guys in Canada did this swap 10-15 years ago, they were very secretive about the swap info.
    Definitely something I’d entertain doing but a J37 variant is more appealing to me. Newer engine and more displacement.
    Making 300+ WHP NA without opening up the motor and keeping the reliability is a win in my book.

    • @crisnmaryfam7344
      @crisnmaryfam7344 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      extra 7 lb saved and same flow as your 3.7 manifold swapping to the magnesium one from the hybrid he mentions here.

    @pepperfish_ 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Love it. I'm all about the torque. The A2 was very nice but only after 5000 rpms. I built my own TSX based off the A-spec Canadian TSX, a k24a from JDM accord type-s with the same magnesium RBB-X fuel/exhaust system, and a gearset from an RSX Type-S. WIth a competition clutch/flywheel a header and tune. Makes just under 208 whp but over 190+ ft/lbs of torque. Pulls like an H22a hatchback from back in the day, like a freight train.

      @pepperfish_ 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@alexasz8753 I built it for reliability and economy not maximum power / speed . When i had the tuned a2 I found that during low speed driving the more HP I added the slower the car felt. Sure Past 6000 rpms it was a screamer, but below 4000 it was getting worse and worse. Whats fun at a drag strip is not fun in rush hour.

I'm happy that we aren't the only ones with love for the J. I'm also a big fan of v6/mt sedans as my daily is a 4th gen Camry that was a factory 1mz/E153 combo that I did a 2GR/E153 swap on. I put 350k on the stock combo and an additional 120k on the swap so far.

    I have a 04 tsx and a 03 accord v6. Both automatic. I was thinking of straight swapping everything from the accord engine / subframe/ harness / steering rack into the tsx. Do you think that will make it a little easier? This video made me think It might not be as plug and play as I thought it could be.
    Oh and I’d have to swap the immobilizer as well.

    • @VTECAcademy

      @Mannystax 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I also used the stock axles from the 2004 MT Acura TL I tried using the 2005 MT V6 Accord Axles but only one side worked due to the fact the j32a3 transmission has LSD the 04/07 Accord doesn't. I'm not sure what you did to connect the tsx gas line to the jseries fuel rail but because it was smaller I took the whole gas line from the Accord from the fuel rail back to the pump and it bolted perfect on the tsx

    Love the topic! I'd always looked at the TSX vs TL and wondered about their near crossover in size appearance, etc, while the V6 vs I4 was the most distinguishing thing between them. Stuffing a TL Type-S drivetrain into the slightly nimbler TSX would make for really sporty, dare I say, FWD super-saloon sedan.

But they really should've put the J series in it since it was meant to be the performance version.

  • @roochiecooch
    @roochiecooch 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Why not just use some aftermarket upper A Arms for the TSX. Then you have the ability to correct the camber with the slightly wider lower arm mounting position. Then its fitment should be more aggressive too since it would give a similar effect to adding a wheel spacer. If it’s too close to the fender you can always choose an aftermarket wheel with a more suitable offset. Then you could have had the nice aluminum subframe instead of the stamped steel one.

    • @VTECAcademy
      @VTECAcademy  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Couple of reasons why I don’t do that. First off it actually changes the geometry. Yes, it makes it wider. Yes longer control arms will allow you to control camber, but it does in fact, change the geometry, so the bump steer wheel not be the same as it is in a stock car. That said the other reason is that’s more expense. I’m gonna make a mount kit, so why don’t I make a mount kit that works with the stock subframe.

    Have you attempted a J35Y2 swap into an 8th gen accord? I have not been able to find any info on this, but the engines seem to be similar. I know the Y2 is a ULEV II engine and can’t find if the ECU from the 8th gen will work with it.

    • @VTECAcademy
      @VTECAcademy  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I am sure you could run it with the 2008 Accord 4 door ECU. They are both VCM motors.

    Question you may be able to answer, is the TL automatic subframe the same as the TL manual trans subframe ? I've always been told they are different but never compared the two subframes side by side. (Some say there is no difference while others say they are different) ps love the J series content and look forward to your project TL build.

      This set up is like putting a K24A4 into an EG as opposed to a B16 or B18C. It’s the same horsepower as a B16, about 160, but it will out accelerate the B18C because of the low end torque.
