i am thinking to swap the engine to K20A2...
but where can i buy the engine?
I tried to find it on ebay...but seems no luck...

to swap it, what do i need beside the engine body??

i will be doing another attempt of a k20 swap... this with an ep3 motor ill find out about the price on monday :wavey:

Well your car is going to be illegal anyway you look at it. CA has laws about transplanting an engine that is older than the car.

Your engine will be a goner in about a month's worth of driving in LA if you ran ITBs. It's too dirty down here in SoCal to run ITB's as a daily driver.

Turbo K20 would be cool, but if it's your daily driver, wouldn't be a b**ch to drive around in LA traffic? If I were you, I would swap a K20 and just leave it as that.

Oh, and you can't run ITB's on a turbo set up. Or at least, I don't recommend it unless you know what you're doing and know what's at risk. As cool as ITBs are, there is really no justification for them to be on any car that is driven on the road daily. There's too much involved to make it worth it.

Wow this thread has come along way! Sorry I haven't been around in awhile. Been busy with the new Mineola Midas (Now Open by the way) - Plug! hehe. Hey Xangoose, I know a shop that can do that fit k20 swap no problem! hehe!

As you all may have read, my poor baby blew up at the track on March 9th of this year, but it's going to come back......!!

let me know im dying to do it...

I hope to see your Fit back in action soon, that thing was badass!

Also make room for me in the shop, I have a KraftWerks Supercharger kit coming my way very shortly. They release 11/21/08!:hyper:

just subscribing to this thread. really good info in here. heres something to think about when thinking about a kswap. stock internals can handle 40+ lbs of boost before it blows. pretty crazy.

YouTube - stock k20 turbo blows up

Wow Ray haven't se you for a while, how's everything going??? hopefully see you soon!!!

Yup I'll be doing that install on the Kraftwerks SuperCharger on WAVE's Fit at the (Midas Auto Service Experts) in "Mineola, NY" <----- PLUG!

Hey, it's MY shop, so it IS THE place for Honda FIT stuff! We'll take pics and vids after that install is done!

When his car go in to your shop let me know!!! I will stop by!!!

I'd like to do a Before & After dyno if possible. The "seat of the pants" dyno I've been using is over rated!

while you are doing the engine swap can you do a right hand drive conversion?

you could but in all honsety, i dont thinkits worth it...

does anyone know if the ac/heater works when you put the acura engine in?

Yes to both. Requires some customization ac wise

thats correct!

hey man, long time no see. Ever get the k24 in?

busy with the shop. hopefully soon! I will keep you all posted!

Read the whole thread, car looked like it was a ton of fun! Sorry to see about the mis-shift! Hate it when that happens.

Good luck getting her running again!

Read this whole thread, all 20 pages, this morning. Very good read...Gettinafit, the pics and frequency of updates were amazing and very informative!

I'm planning a K20z3 swap on my '09 and am having my own set of problems as the '09 is TOO NEW, but I hope to be posting a thread like this within the next year!!! Good luck on your new build and sorry about your last one...10,400RPMs??? HOLY H*LL!!!

Rep +1 for you!
