  1. Engine Building
    I'm getting more & more familiar with how Hondas & their engines work, but still relatively new to k24 swapping. I have a 2006 Civic Si, and want to build a K24 frank for it. I recently picked up another K20z3 (was going to just build it, but decided to go frank with it instead) and found a 05...
  2. Forced Induction and Nitrous K series discussion
    Hello k20a, I posted this on the 8thcivic forums hoping for some feedback and that forum doesn't seem to be super active these days. I figured I would post here in the hopes for some advice/feedback/changes/replacements/recommendations. I've read so much on this forum and k20a about our...

    I’ve got a k20z3 with no AC and a 02-06 rsx power steering pulley. Does anyone know what belt size to use? Can’t find anything in a 7 rib and all of the 6 ribs i’ve tried are to big.

    Engine: K20z3 Trans: 02-04 RSX Chassis: GS-R Transmission will make this brief grinding noise upon cold start. Only happens when cold and it almost sounds like when you don’t have it fully in reverse and let out the clutch. I’m stumped. (I know it’s the trans because we just swapped the...

    Hasport EGK2 mounts K20z3 and trans PLM Power Driven K Swap K20 K24 4-2-1 RB V2 Header The end of the header does not line up with the exhaust at all. The guy welding up my 3” stainless kit tried to heat it up and bend the header to line it up. That didn’t work and made the gasket leak from the...

    So I had been battling this coolant leak for about a week, only to find out it’s coming from the block. It’s cracked right behind the thermostat case (next to the knock sensor). Is there anything I can do to repair it? Or am I better off replacing the engine.
  10. General K-series related talk
    Hey guys, just spent the last week replacing all of the cooling components on the face of my k20z3. (Thermostat, thermostat housing, heater pipe, and thermostat to intake manifold pipe) Unfortunately it still leaks from what seems to be behind the thermostat housing, what else could be leaking...

    Something near the thermostat housing is leaking coolant BAD. When it’s idling it doesn’t leak and when I do a pressure test it doesn’t leak. Only when I drive is when it leaks everywhere. Anyone have a similar issue?
  12. ECU and Tuning
    Just upgrade from kpro v1 to v4, plugged it back in with the same calibration and now I have code 17 (P0500)
  13. General K-series related talk
    This code keeps popping up, not sure what to do about it or where to locate the issue. Is it fine if I drive with this code?

    I recently picked up a k20z3 2000 integra GS-R, trying to get kpro setup on my laptop but i’m not sure how to. I’ve got the application open and from there i’m lost. I really need it to work so I can monitor my water temp and RPM. Also the Tachometer doesn’t work, any solution? Thanks in advance.

    Buying parts for my future K24/k20 frank, and I found a great deal on a k20z3 head near me. Problem is, it’s missing cam gears. Can i swap the cam gears from a set of a3 cams I have lying around and be fine?
  20. 1992+ Civic EG / DC2 / EK K-Series Swap
    Hello! Just swapped a K20z3 into my EG and car is pretty much in limp mode. Car starts up right away but idles up and down. Go to drive it and only goes to 2.5k rpm and is like bogging. Car is getting fuel. Just calibrated the TPS sensor and installed a new IAC Sensor. Loaded a K20 Itr map...
