Kswapfit questions

So I've decided that for the power numbers I want the k swap is the best way to go for my fit I'm going to use a k20 motor originally I planed on using a motor from an Acura rsx and my question is what other cars that are aviable on the canadian and American markets have the k20 motor in them

Honda K engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

hasport for alxes and mounts
Hondata for k pro and wiring harness
k tuned for shifter, shift linkage, and pretty much all the other random tidbits you need.

start here if you have any other questions

also sport car compact issue September 2007 did a write up on Jpax's fit with hasport doing the first k20z3 swap.

fyi you are looking at spending close to $7,000 for this type of swap.

I would recommend buying something a bit more simple like this:

completely bolt on and will make the same power as a k swap for half the cost.

I know the costs and have a list of parts I need but at around 200 hp the l15 motor is reaching it's limits whell the k motor has more room to work with when making power plus my current motor has over 200,000 km on it so putting a turbo on that is jus asking for trouble lol also the k swap is just plane cooler haha

K20 is more reliable in the aspect if revving it to the moon constantly.

I would much rather prefer a k24 for a street car but that is just my opinion.
