V6 Honda Fit Build
#181
Someone has to track this guy down and finish this story. The OP's location is listed as MT = Montana. Big state. Any other queues from the pics / comments to help narrow it down? If I know where to start (town), I'll call all of the listed shops until I find someone with some info to eventually post here.

I totally forgot I posted over here, sorry for the blue balls everyone.
The car is in the same state as the last post, we've been road racing so all the work since then has been on those cars.
I did bring this bad boy out last summer and there was some sort of a coolant leak that I still haven't investigated. Also found out that the ABS isn't working at all and you can lock up the rear tires anytime you want, which is actually pretty fun.
Long story short I moved into a new house with a big garage so I finally have a place to store this and hopefully put in some more time to get in buttoned up.
As far as quarter mile goes, probably won't do that, but we are about an hour away from an 1/8th mile, maybe I can talk my Pops into wheeling this since I want to see what my new car runs too.

Just put a k24& Turbo it
Put a k24 and turbo it.Like i did. Torque like a V8 and takes less space and weighs less. I will be making a complete in depth video series on youtube because i have made build threads in past on forums but with time the images get deleted from image hosting sites and those posts become useless.
K24a2 Turbo Fit, GT3076R
and mine is JDM also,So it has shortest nose (hood) and very tight fitment,but worth it every moment i drive,puts smiles on my face.
I have recently made a video about spirited driving.Check Out how enjoyble it is to drive. Just skip to 1.30 Min if you want to skip Intro.

That thing sounds pretty nice @Fit Hybrid RS 2012. I see you're going for a Dr. Emmett Brown Delorean look with all the gauges on the inside.

Here is an old video but you can hear the true NA VTEC Sound.Just raw,mean & powerful.

@Fit Hybrid RS 2012 yeah I'm in the same boat, I don't like loud cars, but that blow-off valve sound is very nice. That NA VTEC sound is excellent.

Hey, just realized you're from Pakistan, asalamualaikum!
That's crazy that you're able to do all that there! I'm also originally from there but based in the US.
Never thought I'd see a Kswapped anything coming out of Pakistan lol! Surprised the roads are fairly nice too. Karachi roads where I'm from are horrible.

Some roads are ok but mostly bad
and once i up the boost,the BOV sounds would be awsome plus i have now removed the vented hood cover,as its summer now.Now they are even more loud

This is an AWESOME build and I appreciate this build thread! I did a J32A3 swap on my 08 Honda Element a few years back and went with that motor to match the car's system (DBW, VSA, etc). Always wanted a Fit to try that on and finally was able to pick one up! Before you went with the previous gen J32A2, did you ever consider using the newer engine to keep DBW? You created a tube radiator support - Do you think the swap could be done without fabricating a front end like that?

The original thread openerer is long gone we dont know where. he has not cehcked here for years. We dont know what happened to his J23 GE8 Fit swap.
I am posting sometimes here because a K24Turbo Fit is easy to do and has enormous potential. A stock k24a2 can be easyly pushed to 450WHP daily having twice the torque of a J32.
