LHT proudly presents the first real K20 Insight we named “K-Sight”

This project has been under wraps for the last 4 months but is now ready and on it’s way to the NOPI Nationals in Atlanta.

The object was to build this and as OEM as possible, Meaning it’s not a stripped out race car. The LHT way !

We have tried to cover every angle possible so make this a real streetcar. It has AC (Factory climate control), Power steering (Factory electric), ABS, S2000 cluster (100% operating), upgraded braking and suspension and a much stiffer chassis.

We stiffened the whole car by welding extra braces, as well as building a complete sub frame, which ties the whole front together, and course the whole thing is aluminum.
The mounts are Honda OEM mounts from various Honda Vehicles so the car is very smooth with no teeth chattering. In fact you can’t feel it idle in the driver seat.

Now for numbers, with very little tuning the car is making over 200whp with a very quiet exhaust and tied with a JDM 6 speed transmission accelerates like a rocket. The car feels very tight and has great feel due the extra bracing and a custom alignment.

For the gas mileage folks, so far with very little tuning the car has averaged 48mpg with about 60% highway and the rest stop and go. This includes the 7 runs on the dyno. I’m confidant it will break 55+mpg once tuned. With the ability of the Hondata K-Pro we have had the car at 19-1 AF ratio with 40 degree of advance with no issues.

 

would make a great dd, with that gas milage

i think i saw this in atlanta

 

that's sick.. it was only a matter of time..

 

nice

 

i hung out with the guy for a few minutes at desoto speedway on thurs night. he mentioned the car so i dug it up off TR. i told him it needs an rsx front end. haha

 

i luv it!

 

car is sick.... good work.

 

Props on the swap eventhough im not a big fan of insights

 

wow... mad sleeping status

 

Very nicely done. Love the OEM mind set for the built!

 

very nice, clever name!

 

looks bad ***

 

I like it, but I'm not sure if those wheels look so great. Your decision of course, and the thing is awesome, but you know those new Civic hybrid wheels that are nearly full face? They would look kind of funny otherwise, but I actually think those would look pretty good with a transparent gunmetal over them on the K-Sight.

Just a thought, but this thing is really great!

 

This is so awesome. Must be fun to drive.
