I'm having trouble choosing between 2 swaps a <U>JDM K20A</U> or <U>USDM K20A2 </U> through reasearch I found out they have pretty much the same engine specs. The biggest difference is price, I found a k20a for $6000.00 and a k20A2 for $4000.00 they both have very low mileage and are included with everything for the swap. I want this in my 98 Civic ex coupe.

If the price difference is that much the choice really isnt that hard. Screw all the JDM bullshit.

 

i think its only a 15-20hp difference and the compression is probabally different but other than that its really up to you and how much you want to spend cuz your going to be spending money on other stuff too like mounts and all that other good stuff.

 

you'd probably be happier having the usdm and the extra 2'gs to play with.


But thats just how i feel about it.

 

Yeah $4000 isn't going to put that engine in your car. Those swaps still cost into the $8,000 range with everything you need to actually make it work in our cars.

 

Cool I'm going with the K20A2 then, just need to start saving up! Yeah I'm not a real big fan of the Jdm engines they're just too over rated and too praised by everyone Thanks

 

i would find some other k20 build threads and see what people had to go through and the parts needed to make everything work right
