[Accordk24]

I have a Euro Accord With a K24A3 and its running a Drive by Wire Throttle Body, I am soon to be running a Hondata K-Pro. but id like to know how easy it is to convert it to a mechanical throttle body?

Im sure you would want to looking into using a USDM 2004 Accord K24 pedal, throttle cable and throttle body. If you wanted to get a bigger throttle body you could use a RBC 70mm throttle body adapter and a RSX DC5 aftermarket throttle body.

Well i was going to used a HR TB but then i come across the ZDX 70mm TB, which is just plug and play, and you can play around with the responsiveness etc. Thanks for the reply though buddy.

I think you can get a TSX ECU from an '08 model and run Flashpro on that, if the TB conversion proves to be a headache.

HAHA, i just see this.

Hey there bud, how is it going with the conversion?

Looked into it myself, as the Civic Type S VSA model uses pretty much the same systems as the Accord.

The problem i found was that the DBW and VSA systems are connected through all sorts of different gubbins, didnt want to risk MOT failure with the VSA system indicator not working as it should, and deleting the system looks tough...

That flashpro route i mentioned above keeps it all working as it should be.
K4NEB is another UK member on here who has done that, maybe he might be able to give you more details, if you are interested.

Hello dude. Yeah i know Kane very well. I decided to stay with DBW and went with the biggest TB Honda do.

Ah haa! I guessed you might be partners in crime Haha! Well i wasnt meaning to break out the egg sucking tutorial there, sorry about that man!

So you got a beasty TB sorted? Cool! i guess you could go flashpro at some point, Kane looks to be on a mission with his motor, flying the flag for us UK peeps!

I dont give a monkeys about keeping VSA but i reckon a non VSA Civic Type S will be a cleaner swap (hopefully) loads of plans, just not enough cash :fuuu:

HAHA, no worries mate. Yeah me and him are in competition =p but hes a bit ahead of me. I just received my ZDX TB, which is HUUUUGE by the way. I just ordered my ECU, which will also be here in a few weeks. Yeah i've got in to the habbit of turning my VSA off, it's a bit gay.

Ha Ha! yeah VSA is fine for those who are too lazy to figure out how to drive, if you are in tune with the car i find it doesnt activate anyway.

Awesome to hear your project is coming on (jealous!) hope to see more, got to turn in now (work nights) but chuffed that things are cooking at your end, keep us posted man.

Cheers!
