I did a search and only found eg and ek swaps.

Thinking of doing this in my DC2. I've got a JDM ITR swap in it now. Are there any kits and what all is required? If anyone has a link to a thread post it here. Thanks in advance.

try PM'in one of these guys about your swap

 

JoeSTypeS has been in the process of doing it, and has been finished for awhile now (I think). https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=844044

 

i've read through all threads, my concern is oil pan clearance. how low would it be with stock height of gsr/itr and can it be fixed?

 

i have the k20a hasport kit is my dc2 and i have not had any problems with the oil pan hitting anything and i live in an area that teh roads are really bad. so it really is not that serious.

 

so.. how much lower is it that stock? .. or whats the clearance for oil pan in your case?

 

would an aftermarket oil pan help? I wonder if they make ones with better ground clearances. I doubt it though since an aftermarket is supposed to be designed for MORE oil capacity = larger tank. I dont' think the clearance issues would be worse than lets say... a 4-1 exhaust manifold?

There is lots of info on this swap on this site. Search

if you need a little more help try K20a.org

be ready to spend some money too...

 

The problem with the info that I found is that it was from April and the earlier months of the year. It's September now. I was just looking for some up-to-date information and new products that weren't available back then.

Thanks for all of the replies

I've also been wondering about the oil pan clearance. I mean, I don't have the money anyway, but if I were ever GOING to do it, that would be my primary concern.

 

i think theres enough clearance even with the car lowered.

 

i have the type-r front lip and it is about 2-3inches off the ground so just about a 2.50 drop.

 

Can you take some pics from the front showing the oil pan clearance?

 

i believe i read once that the eg mounts would work with the dc2. back when i was studyin up to do the swap in my ek. never went through with it though. too much trouble and money.. but i say go for it and after u do the swap if i dont sell my car i will let u help me don one on mine

 

DO it! EG mounts work. PLEASE do it. I wana see more!

 

So EG mounts work then? What else is a concern aside from the oil pan clearance. Loss of A/C?

and PS...

but is that really a concern?

I would say from all the cars i have seen oil pan clearance is about 5-6 inch's maybe a little more. I don't think it is all that bad. You just have to remember that it is there.

The EG and DC kit has better axle angle, and is placed a few inches further back and higher in the engine compartment, giving it a slight advantage over the EK kit in oil pan clearance (this is because of the steering rack and front crossmember in the EK), and also in weight distribution. It also helps if you are doing a K24 swap and you need the little extra room.

Thank you hasport for taking the time to outline the swap. Also I like how they take the time to include which size tool you need for each step.
