sorry my car is a dc5 integra
swap for a 6speed JDM k20a
.... JDM k20A.. if u were driving a manual i'd say turbo
if u wan value for money - id dropa 5 speed tranny in and turbo it!
but if ur afta true NA power...drop the jdm motor in ther n change it to a 6 speed!
tough one...why did u get the auto neways? curious
i'd sell it and buy a JDM
dotn do the drop in... actually sell it and buy an ITR
I agree, sell it and try and find a JDM DC5R - definitely not easy but would be a LOT less troublesome and probably cheaper than trying to convert your current car.
it was pressie from mum and dad.... kinda, like they would have fun wiht the car for a few years then give it to me, hence the auto tranny.
Isnt it hard to find a JDM ITR, ive only heard of one actual jdm ITr here.
OR
i could k24 franky conversion?
i rekcon..keep yoru car for a lil bit, then in a year sell it and buy what ever you like. by then yoru parents wont care if u sell it or anything..... =D
I'm not a big fan of engine transplants.... for the amount you spend and difficulty (not to mention insurance and resale) I'd think about buying a different car honestly..... either JDM DC5R and mod that or go for a different turbo car (!!).... my 2 cents
man the best idea is this ,...
keep the auto and the engine
the k20a is what a siz speed and i-vtec ?? thats it right
u want to make most of ur auto right?? then do this
slap in a decent turbo kit and get the person doing your turbo so change your standard toque converter to a high stall converter (which acts similar to a quickshift)
so your gears dont lag wen changing and you wouldnt hav a problem keeping up since you got no lag between gears ...
and if your car has a step tronic (not sure if it does) well if it does then that high stall converter will cause your car to "pop" between gears if you know what that means ...
trust me and keep the auto save the money and hassle and keep your gearbox and engine and build it from there.
