Scroll towards the bottom, or search for "skunk." Said it made 9.8 second passes.

ahh but u 4got to mention.. its allso a TUBE frame car...

every bit of $$ was spend on making it light - weight... as well as making it fast...

so im sure.. its not just your standard k24/k20 swap.... :: u can already see tha ITB .. how much more work do ut hink tha engine has done to it.. to even think of achieving tha 8.7 slot that u speak of...

==========
most car guys on here.. dont have a limitless budget, & Sponsorship backing.. to support tha amount of $$ it woudl cost to build any motor close to that....

=
valid point made.. they(skunk2) do have a powerful car equiped w/ a k24/k20 swap....

but just because some company spent a fortune on race car... isnt gion to make me choose 1 engien over the other...

im looking for real world advice.. from some1 who lives check-to-check, isnt handed a sponsorship, stresses over wrecking it @ tha track..... knowing its goin to take a while to re-build.

Skunk2 although a great company... doesnt have those issues...
u see tha development shop... thats more tools then ill ever own.. tha LIFT alone is more then ill have.... for a LONG LONG time....
=======


Now :::: can i please have some feedback from some1 who lives check-t0-check, & actually deals w/ tha struggle of life when your car is yoru life... & it seems like your always broke.

heheha - thanks

I knew they hit 9.8, but 8.7?

Anyway, litterbox has a K24/K20 motor. Search for his threads.

b00sted_hatch

i was watching NOPI television on the speed channel like a month ago and that project delta car i swear it ran a 8.7..but hey..i could be wrong

if you are living check to check you shouldnt be modifying cars...

I love my 2.4L 1992 Civic DX with type s head, type r cams and tsx block with type r tranny and 2006 CIvic Si manifold with type r TB, mounted with karcepts adaptor and using hondata K pro

REFLUX

I'll make the assumption that goes with most increased displacement engines:

K24 = more tq but less revs and more wear & tear
Probably more fun for daily driving & passing power but might be less durable for track use

driftrx7

how much does a k20 swapp cost??

actually it is the opposite...

you are making the same power 2.0L make at 8500 rpm//but you are making that power at 7200 rpm.... so the motor is working less.. so will last longer

I sold 2 tsx motors to this canadian track team, last year



and they are looking for 2 more... they asked a few day ago... so I asked them back how are the motors doing and they replied

"1 engine is in the race car , the other one is the back up. Since we had good results last year, we are getting a lot of demand for that setup. Even had good offers for the backup engine but we don't want to sell it."

You put the "K" in franKenstien!

hehe, thanks

Sorry for the bad picture... cover your eyes!

Kaji

Wow your K swap looks magical in that picture.

Personally I prefer the K24 but that's because I have little intention of tracking my car. The torque is far more useful for daily driving purposes. The k20/k24 though will probably satisfy you for a long time...and it better cause that's probably the best set up for an ek.

eXcelonTypeR

Hey Nikos, do you know anyone running k20, k24 or Frankenstein swaps with the JRSC in EGs or EKs??? Just looking for some good experiance/info. Can't wait till I can do a K swap hehehe

R-81DC2

whats ur quarter mile times??

Nevaeh Speed

I say k20a or k20a2. And after time get boost, or go with the new cower stroker kit, and get 2.35 liters.

Nikos

I am running a type r tranny so in order to finish the 1/4 mile I would have to shift into 5th, so I am not going to worry about it for now.. I also have a type s tranny, that I will use for drag racing.. The type r tranny has a very close gear ration that is cool for daily driving...

ABK

you got $8000-10000
