j30a4 = the engine from 03+ accords v6 (240hp+)

I was reading someone that it fits perfectly with not much customization. That would be really nice....

i like the style of 98-02...coupes the best...nsx tail lights baby!

 

I dont know anyone that's done it, but since it's the same family of engine with the same displacement, I couldnt see why it wouldnt...but dont go get an engine cause I said so...

 

yeah....maybe people should do that...especially if they have the 4 cylinder model ><

 

ya if u were gonna swap, i would be 110 percent sure it is swapable.. wouldnt want to go buy an engine and its worthless b.c it doesnt fit my car lol.. but again i wouldnt see why it wouldnt be swapable.. but again like accordselux said, dont go buying engines b.c we said so lol.

 

I dont know if it's the same with the 7th gens but the 6th gen engine bay is different between the 4 and 6 cylinder, it would be a lot of work.

The only thing I can think of being different is wiring. I dunno if those engines are drive by wire or have higher emissions standards, you'd have to rewire the ECU and speedometer I believe.

 

that would be sweet if j30a4 swap into a 6th gen, keep us update on this one

 

well i'm not sure how accurate this site is but:

Sounds to me that they are a perfect fit.
If it wasn't they would have said something about a custom kit etc....

so what do you guys think? That'd be pretty sweet

i would not trust the site that can't even get the generation year right, the shotgun approach had failed to convince me

 

Not only that but they also have the hp wrong

 

And... they say to swap a B16 or B18 to 91-04 Accords.

 

be careful about the engine choice. the 03-05 models have 4 speed automatics, while the 06 models have 5 speed automatics with drive-by-wire electronic throttle system and also grade logic control, so the wiring might be a little difficult...unless you are getting a 5 speed, then you should have no problem. but, i would still get an 03-05 model and 98-02 model and compare them side-by-side to be 100% sure.

 

The 03's do have 5sp autos. The 06 has only cosmetic differences. Bumpers and such.
