DIY: K20/K24 Swap into a 2001-2005 Civic

Re: DIY: K20/K24 Swap into a 2001-2005 Civic
Hi, i was just swapping my 01 civic using a k24 mixed with k20. The head and gearbox belong to the k20 and some internals. Im choosing hondata kpro v3 for the ecu. While dynoing, i found that the vtec was not engaged. But i didnt see any CELs in the first place. The tuner checked and found that the vss isnt responding. Trouble code 16 if im not mistaken. And im sure that the speedo stays at 0 while dynoing. Any suggestion to fix the issue ? I've tried changing the ecu/vss both. Still dead end. Or maybe i should use the emk2 harness ? Anyone facing the same problem before ? Please do share. Thanks.

Okay, like i said im using the 03 gearbox to be exact. So why does the speedo and vss not responding to the hondata ? My tuner said the vss is giving signal, but not reaching the ecu. I wonder whats happening and the tuner himself cant figure this one out. Is the k-tuned emk2 harness is going to help ? I was about to buy one but my tuner cant guarantee that it'll work. Thats why i ended up asking so many questions here.

ok so my 03 4door is now k24 ready rsx spindles and anti sway bars all around with type s brakes. sitting in the scrap yard is a 4wd k24 crv, is it just a matter of swapping tranys to make it fwd, if so i have access to rsx base model (unfortunately with semi auto box) would this work for now till donner car comes along for head and 6spd swap?

auto box that has a separate slot for up/down shifts i know it's really an automatic (do we refer to this as honda-matic, sport shift?or just plain automatic?) also are there any other rads that will work(only si's i can find at the moment are 1.7 cdn. version, and 2 rsx's both front end crashed) thanks again toyomatt84

As for radiators, you're looking at DC5 or EP3 for options, sadly.

Click here for the DIY... i have it sitting on my server
xproductionz.com*-*xproductionz Resources and Information.
Since website is no longer available, I have uploaded a PDF of the web page. Please see attached. -toyomatt84
As i go along let me know if i missed anything so i can add it in
Also if anyone has some pics i can add then that would help too

**also note that the same thing applies to people who do the k24 swap. Just remember that if you use a k24 that the tranny side mount is different from the k20 tranny mount. If you already have a k20 in your car and wish to use a k24. Hasport and i think Hybrid can supply only the k24 tranny mount so that way it sits the motor lower so it can fit in our cars
***also note that i did find out that the 04-05 civics have the in-dash c101 clip rewired from that of the 01-03. I am in the process of finding out the solution for you 04-05 owners. If anyone has figured it out please do let me know so i can put it up
