The Kswap Thread

Excellent.
Could you shed some light on it please.
Anything needed to know? Oil pickup? Fitment? Anything.
And is there much improvement in regards to ground clearance?
Thanks

Nothing to worry about, only need to buy shorter bolts as the alloy pan is thicker so it uses longer bolts.
Eh i never measured it, i still hit on the road every now and then. Oil pump clearance is not an issue.

Also your sump will take roughly and extra 800ml or so of oil over the alloy sump, which has to be a good thing.
Also if you want to keep your flywheel covered you will need a k24 inspection plate cover as, alloy sump cover won't fit anymore.

Duly noted.

Thank you so much!

Okay guys need your help on my KRX.

Specs:
Street tyres 15x 6.5 rims
Stage 3 HASport Driveshafts (Discontinued - believe) Its the equivalent to level 2.9 drive-shaft.
DA integra hub\knuckle


I have noted that my passenger side drive shaft didnt properly sit inside the gearbox.
U can see about 5mm of the driveshaft sitting out.
Now i am suspecting its the C-clip. But have also ordered other things like gearbox seal and a new drive shaft nut also.
I plan to swap these old parts with the new ones being ordered.
The Drive shaft boots are intact and are NOT leaking or split/cracked or whatever.

Problems
Leaking transmission fluid not alot but small amount cause the drift shaft doesn't look to be fitting in.
There is no crunching or grinding sound when driving and the teeth on the drive shaft look to be okay.

What i want to know is ... is it the clip that needs to be replaced for it to click into the gearbox?
And has anyone had this sort of issue before.

My mate has a set of DSS 2.9 axles, and his do exactly the samd thing, they dont sit flush with the gearbox, they stick out by a few mm.

When I saw it with my own eyes, I thought something was wrong and even made him pull the shaft out so we could try and push the shaft in again.

In the end, thats just how those shafts are made. The same small gap is also present on the drivers side between the driveshaft and the midshaft.

I know its a different situation, but thought id share.

How much fluid are you leaking? What LSD do you have? Have you tried borrowing another driveshaft and test fitting?

its a small thin line of transmission fluid running down from the gearbox but its enough to be noticeable and would be about few drops over 15mins or so.
LSD is the standard 1 from an Ep3 gearbox.

grab ur service manual and measure/compare length of splines. compare it with oem if you have one

anyone notice
