If you mean the K20A(*) motor out of the DC5 ITR, then, yes, it will fit with a very small amount of work.

But what the devil are you up to?

Your Accord is a bigger car and it's a heavier car than the one the K20A(*) was designed for. It's a very bad idea. It's going to cost too much and you will not be satisfied with the torque characteristics of the K20A(*) when compared to the very high, low end torque of the USDM K24.

I'm speculating, but I think that you're going to be scared to death to learn how much the computer and wiring is going to cost for what you are doing.

If you have owned the car for a while, and you're willing to spend some time and money on it, then I'd respectfully suggest that you start looking for high performance K motor parts that will work on your USDM K24.

The moderator Nikos has a lot of experience with high performance K24 and K24/K20A(*) hybrid applications, and I'd seek out his advice if I were you.

Juss so u kno the type-r motor doesn't fit n our cars...the block doesnt line up with the mounts...ya best bet is to get a k20 head from the type-r and swapp out the pistons n ya block cause the pistons n our block is different then the other k motors...then u would need a few more parts and a k-pro...its gonna cost u a good 3-4g's...i plan on doing the same thing...
