At the moment i waring up the pro and con to do a K series swap over a do B series swap with a build B18CR as mosty track car but still with rego into small ED9 crx chassis

I more think a B series would be hell of alot easy swap and better car weight balance wise

What everyone else thoughts?

dude when it comes to doing conversions I wouldnt bother spending the time or money on a 21yr old car.....serious over capitalisation, better off putting that money and effort into an already decent car dc2r or dc5r.....ek9 etc..

very good point i come up with that conclusion after more research after this first post and go buy a EP3R in 12months time then modifying a ED9 crx to find a over size k20a engine and gearbox and have i will have great daily unmodified EP3R with only few bugs conpair

A B18c is easy swap into a ED9 crx amount work wise but dollars not really
I think just rebuild my d16a8 with cams, high comp pistons, Hondata ECU and few other thing to get sweet low power street/track car which all i really want in the end

turbo it pat

What numbers are people pulling with AUDM K20's with I/H/E? Or even K24?
From what I could find, most were around the 130-140kw mark. 150kw for cam or JDM motors?

That's not a far cry from a healthy B18CR pulling 120kw~.
The torque and power delivery of a K20 is definitely superior and their gearboxes are killer. You get what you pay for, the extra spent on a K series is totally worth it if that's your power goal. Why do a motor swap then build it up. Unless it's a wicked crate motor :O

But I agree with dougie, the B series does have it's charm. :)

From what i've seen, both k20's and k24's with boltons make 140-150kw

On a hub dyno?

No all on roller dyno's

just out of curiosity, which K24 are we talking about? the ADM K24A3? and with tune or not?

Yes k24a3. 4-1 headers, 3inch system, VTC upgrade, RBC with 70mm t/b, SRI with filter and a good tune. I've done a few before. Its a proven combo

I want a K :(
Facking gearboxes are so pro.
While dyno numbers from a B to K may not be much. In real world terms, the K is so much quicker.

^ so true , really feels good to have short ratioed 6 gears ...... .but now when i jump in my integra after driving the k20 i almost always nearly put it into reverse before i remember its b series :(...lol

personally b series is alot more fun then k around the track and sounds like a honda engine...with the write combo and gear set u can outrun the ks with bolts on
