What is all needed to do a K24a2 Swap on the 2002 honda civic si....

Spankedrican92

Heres what I been able to confirm so far......

Crv Passenger side mount
K24A2 motor of course 06-08
Kpro
5spd/6spd Tranny from rsx S/ Civic SI

Questions:
I have a 2002 honda civic si with the K20A3 motor from a RSX Base, Im not sure which ECU the previous owner kept in, so my question is which Kpro should I get. Either the 2001-2005 Honda Civic SI Kpro/ 2001-2005 RSX Base Kpro.... Either way both are based off of RSX-S (US) w/PRB ECU.

Also can I get a 2008 K24A2 beacuse the Kpro only goes up to year 2006

I would really appreciate a proper intro and walkthrough for this swap into the 2002 Honda Civic SI

Sorry but I giggled about the Kpro only going up to 2006

Yes you can run the 06-08 engine with Kpro. You need the Kpro for your car. From there you can tune it to ANY k engine. I hope you know a good tuner


Please stop making different threads though for swapping an engine into your car lol



You'll also need a wiring harness for an RSX or modify yours. Not 100% for the EP3 I'll ask a buddy with the swap

Doesn't matter what ecu you use as long as its from an 02-04 rsx or ep3. Kpro works the same on them all. Only difference is the type a ecu has reverse lock out for the 6 speed trans. If you decide to upgrade to a 6 speed in the future it may be beneficial.

You can use any k24 up to 2008

awesome.... so the kpro question is answered... So if i understand u correctly then i can just hook up kpro for the 02 honda civic si to my ep3 even if i have an rsx ecu as long as its an 02-05?

Also What else is needed for this swap, im gonna keep the stock intake and throttle for now until i have more money to upgrade to rrc(rbc) intake and i think the type s throttle body (I think thats compatible).

^that link is exactly where I was gonna head next.

I didn't do the oil pump swap or anything. I left the engine 100% factory K24A2.

I swapped out the sensors and the coolant port pipes.

wow, this is back from 2013.... I also have a 2002 honda civic si ep3
that I'm trying to do a k24a2 swap. what year crv for the passenger side
mount? you dont need to do the oil pump people are doing and the water
BS?? Thank you in advance

The part number for the CRV engine bracket that you need is 11910-PPA-000. If you do not rev the engine above 7500 RPM, it is not necessary to swap to the RSX-S oil pump.

Thank you for the reply man, I appreciate the info.

This is actually one of my 1st times doing a swap myself. The EP3 has been my fav car since my high school days in 2005. Is it easier to work with a supercharged or
turbo? My plans are to buy one of those turbo kits from ebay and skunk 2 racing cams. I want to see how much HP can I get with this thing. The 93 civic si hb is a nice
looking car too. post some pics if you have any.

I was needing this, too. Going JDM K24A soon and have already gathered quite a few parts, but was confused on the CRV mount. Thanks!
