Those engineers at honda have done it again. I am sure this has been covered and only the $$$ need attempt and of this, but it seems that hybrid hondas will live on into a new generation. Honda fanatics everywhere stood in amazement the first time they seen a running LS/VTEC or heard of a b20 in a civic. Well it seems that our passion will live on. After reading the new review of the Acura TSX in the SCC, I noticed how popular the K series platform ihas become. First the RSX with it's K20A, and then the not so powerfull, not so VTEC Civic SI followed. The release of a K powered CRV tantilized tuners with the possibility of another CRV-tec. Hasport shown the world that a EP-3 civic powered by a RSX type S engine and 6 speed transmission is possible. Imagine the possiblities. The new TSX comes with the same Valve train as the RSX (equipped with a REAL VTEC system, unlike the crv and the civic.) but maintains the same bore and even higher compression pistons than it's SUV counterpart. EP3 powered with a TSX engine(K24A2) and transmission+hybrid. I am sure it will be a while before you'll see any TSXs in the salvage yard but i have seen aleast a dozen trashed RSXs. Of course tearing down a 2002 civic Si wouldn't be the smartest thing in the world but it is only a matter of time before you see an EP3 running around with a K24A2.

Got hybrid?

 

ummm...hey buddy welcome to last week, but we already got some EP's in here running K24's.

you can search all day for em..

 

Sorry *** not with the TSX engines.... lol thanks buddy

 

if you read they are running different heads...essentially the A2 head (VTEC on intake/exhaust). Learn something before making yourself look like an idiot pal.

 

We are so nice!!

maybe I am not the idiot "PAL". DOES switching the heads give you the 2.4L AND the higher C.R piston....(TSX..only BUDDY)

gayer than a vegitarian eating roast beef....

 

How is a vegetarian eating roast beef gay? But yeah..

thats a good question. but i woulndt doubt seeing a mini oddesy with a TSX motor in da near future.

 

I drive an EP with an RSX Type S head loaded with Type R cams with a K24A bottom end and a JRSC supercharger on it. I have for months. By August the new engine should be in and I should have 325hp at the wheels.

We are doing our best to keep the hybrid flame burning brightly.
