kpro. $1000
k24a2 $2000
CRV mount $40
done.....
So... AFTER ALL THE BS I'VE BEEN HAVING WITH MY ENGINE(throttle body issues, and slipping clutch)... NOW THIS! LOL
So I've decided to do my EP right and make her go FAST
Here are my ideas:
1. K24A2 with K-Pro
2. Keep the A3 Bottom and just get a new set of A3 Cams(Brian Crower) and Valvetrain with K-Pro.
3. Same as ^ #2 with street JRSC.
This will be over a period of 6 months... GOT TO SAVE $$$ Im a save about $600 Per month to make this possible. I WOULD PREFER THE CHEAPEST ROAD POSSIBLE, BUT... I know that this wont be cheap. Trying to keep in less than $5,000 though...
IDEAS????

Damn Brad. Motor swap would be the best route for you since your always having some kind of engine problem.
k24a1 from a junkyard Turbo kit = over 300whp.
a2 head, rebuild a3 block with forged goodies. kpro, cams... Have about what you would in a k24a2 swap but a built motor..
Still going to have those little rod journals unless he goes with a k20a2 crank. To build it right it's going to cost a lot in machine shop costs. More then likely will cost more then a k24, make about the same power, and not last nearly as long as factory sealed honda motor.
My 2 cents
k20a2 head $700.00
Rods and pistons $800.00
head gasket and sealants and such $120
Balance Rot Assem. $250
Bearings $100.
Bore/hone/deck block $150
Blue print and order all correct bearings $200
Assemble shortblock $150
Inspect/ Mill head $100-200

TELL ME ABOUT IT!... LOL
The only thing killing it, is that I got to keep using the stock TB on the K24... AND THE PROBLEM IS THE THROTTLE BODY! FML!
Oh Well... I will have the biggest smile on my face when it's all set and done. Six months of taking the bus is SO worth it to me. Im a probably not drive the car even when it's done till I get new wheels for it. as well as maybe a big brake kit for the front.
So.... Probably gonna be the K24A2 with K-Pro. TIME FOR SOME READING!
Thanks for the info everyone... keep them coming... I have ntohing set in stone yet
I ment a2 crank but left it out :(
definitely get a k24a2, i got mine from a local junkyard from an 05 tsx with 40k on it for 1800 shipped to my door. My whole swap cost me less than $2000 including new fluids and all
So what made you decide to keep the car? Glad you did! You'll fall back in love with her again after the swap...trust me!
