Default swap a k24 whit a rsx type s head into a 06'civic

hi ,i know is bizzare but i cant wait to the si and i buy 3 week ago a 06'civic dx-g....what i plant to do is swap a k24 engine whit all the rest from a 2003 rsx type s...i plant to port the head and instal 4 trottle body and a headers.....my question is:
1-the si come whit a k20 so the k24 is bolt at the same place?(the dx-g and the si have the same body)

2- for the wiring ....did i need to have the key code for the rsx cpu or i can take the signal from my code key....?

3- the type s it is a lsd tranny?

the only reason why i buy the car is for make some show car and race it so i do not need to pay for a si and loose warenty on it....i just pay the car chepper and put some hard stoff on it whit the money i save...... you can see the car at: http://tybob.monchar.com/

Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

You're so impatient that you couldn't wait a few months for the new Si to come out, so you bought a Dx and you're going to completely **** away your warranty with a swap on a 2 month old car? And more than likely end up spending way more money in the process.

You're right--that is bizzarre.

first of all, if you wanna mod your civic, there is absolutely no room for any mods and almost impossible to stick your hand in there. no one makes mounts for the 06 civic for a k20, unlesse you use oem. but there is absolutly nothing for a k24. part of the car actually goes right over the engine head, so you will have problems with the height of the k24. the new civic uses a TBW so you can't use that ecu, you would basically have to downgrade the whole electrical system and use kpro from a 02-04 rsx. when i say a k20 in a new si, you can't even see the header, thats how much the engine is implanted in the car.

i suggest using a earlier and lighter civic like a eg. you will have alot more fun with that.

don't try to do something as complex if you dont' have the know how and understanding of how diffrent this new civic is, unless you can fabricate your own parts and know how to rewire the whole car

contact hasport see if they are making mounts for the new vic or not.
I can tell you it gonna be a tight @ss fit. I have NO room left in my 01 after i swapped a k24. I think the 8th engine bay is smaller.

Erm as the others said, this is one of the smallest and hardest to work in engine bays so good luck with it all. Also, by "4 trottle body" I think you're referring to ITBs. I think swaps in the older Honda's are way easier than this will be...

Hey, asshat. North of the border we have this wonderful thing called "Two Official Languages". He clearly speaks French but struggles with English... but at least he CAN deal with English a little bit. I'm not going to task you on judging his buying decisions, because that's a personal choice and you can express your opinions just like anyone else... but lay off the comments about his language... it makes you look like a redneck *******.

dude im a tech for acura please never think again your gonna hurt yourself. you are doing way too much work to a car that should need work. go buy the si and get over it. i have a k24 in my 2001 civic it was a lot of work and it was expensive i highly wouldnt recommend it because of the fact that it was expensive for me and i have the resources to do it the right way. oh and its an ecm or pcm not a cpu.
