k24/20 w/ 6 Speed TSX (LSD) in Accord Coupe
 
Hi Honda-Tech users,

I am going to begin on my daily driven Accord k24/20 project soon, but I came across some problems that I would like to ask for your advice. The problem consists of these questions:

Weight ratio:
Accord weights ~3100lbs
RSX weights ~2700lbs
How can I reduce the weight of the my Accord without interior stripping? Maybe sparco seats? Lighter rims? Trying to avoid losing rear seats and other luxury items.

Accords steering is really soft compared to the RSX stiff steering. How can I make the Accord's steering similiar to the RSX's? I noticed on the Accords that as I hit potholes or bumps, it tends to push my steering wheel towards the bump either left or right, compared to the RSX stiff steering, it would barely move or not even move at all.

I will keep this thread updated on my build.

Currently aiming for 250-300hp. Going for N/A for now, maybe FI later. TORQUE BEAST.

k20a2 head
Unsure about which internals to install to achieve my goal.
k24a2 block
RBC intake manifold
karcept throttle body adapter
k20a2 or s2k oil pump
s2k or rdx fuel injectors
Hondata K-Pro or AEM EMS (Hondata doesnt support the Accords, but someone said that a harness has been made, but unsure whether it works 100%.)
6 speed TSX manual transmission w/ LSD

Aww shit. I need to go work.

Can someone make some suggestions on internal motor work? It would nice.

Thank you everyone for contributing to my project.

I changed my mind. I am going to start first with the k24a2 with a 6 speed TSX manual transmission swap and then make further changed with internals after.

how much are you going to sell your build? I have the money ready, but as for your setup, I am looking more for daily driving. I dont know if your setup if good for that. Stage 3 cams seems aggressive for daily driven. Or am I wrong?

well... i have this setup with the intention of a daily driver since i do drive my car daily =P i dont think it will be too aggressive b/c it doesnt really put out THAT much power, im only running a stage 2 clutch so the drive shouldnt be bad.

This project has 4,000$ dollars in funds so far.
