I was wondering which K24 bottom end will fit with all the stock accessories in my new 07 SI. I was told that I couldn't use the accord or crv engines ... thanks for the help...

 

TSX

 

Bye, bye warranty...hello 10HP!

That's a pretty dumb statement. A turbo also voids your warranty. A lot of mods will void your warranty.

 

I have the funds to build a good bottom end for my car and I'm not too worried about the warranty I just want to keep ps,ac.and the rest of the accessories that come with the car.. I have 2 k24 accord engines at my shop..

 

nice...i think hasport did a k24 swap into an 06 si search 4 it...i`d love 2 do it....just found this http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/sh...81971

anyone ever see that front cf lip b4?

 

thanks for the info..

 

it should fit with out a problem. i think they told you the accord block wouldnt work becuase the vavles would hit, or something around that.

It says on the parts list that the lip is custom. We're never going to get a cf front lip. I mean why would companies want to make money?!?

K24a4 accord/element block's pistons are too tall at TDC and hit the valves.

You are wrong! In the United States nothing can void a warranty, except undeniable proof that you used your car for racing/competition. Then they can put a drive train warranty block. Only the warranty claim can be denied. The part modified must cause or have contributed to the cause for which the warranty claim was presented. Stop spreading erroneous information.

Good post, I hope you're right....

 

technically he is right, but in the real world, it usually doesnt turn out working out for the consumer.

Thanks for posting the truth Dealerships try to avoid doing warranty work on legit claims... imagine if you come in with a turbo and other aftermarket parts

 

swapping out the stock block for a 2.4 L will void your drivetrain warranty. end of story.

 

again for the record I'm not worried about my warranty.. I have an accessory shop. I'm well knowleged with the b series and things but not the k series...

Well I am right, they can't void the warranty, only deny the claim. The only entity that has the power to modify your warranty is Honda Motor Company of America. And then they can only initiate a block on warranty claims on the drive train.

tsx engine but i say keep your stock engine,cause you dont want to go through all that trouble and money unless you got money then go for it!!!

 

If you're ready to spend 4K on an engine just to gain 10 hp from your current then go with the tsx. It fits well plus it is the one engine you love...a "K24"

 

I have 2 k24a4 engines sitting in my shop and I was told that my ps ac and other equipment wouldn't fit right ... this is what I am wanting to know... I plan on putting my si head on it and running my car like this.. thanks..

I don't understand you people. The TSX has a better torque curve, i'd sure as hell not get it for the 10 hp, but the torque is impressive because of the displacement. Boohoo my car gets 197 hp at 9 gajillion RPM but my torque curve is as big as a JDM pee pee...

Hell yes! The power band of a k24a2 is much broader than any stock k20. Too many people pay attention to peak power numbers. For example, before I became a honda enthusiast, I was into cavaliers. Specifically the 2.4 twin cam ld9 engine in the Z24. This engine was rated at 150hp and 155 ft lbs of torque. The power band on this engine was as flat as kansas. And was able to out accelerate cars comparable in weight with 30-50 rated hp

Why not just pick up a stroker kit?

Ok, sure you're right. But go slap on a turbo, then drive in with a busted trans or LSD and tell me if your dealer fixes it or denies your claim.
