Bring back drag racing! - BYP DC2 OEM K20/K24 12.6 @ 108mph * New PB

Well its been years when we had the era of quick drag cars. Many has diversify into time attack and circuit racing. I think its time to bring Honda's back into drag racing!

So we acquired a DC2 (VTI-R) chassis for this purpose. It's probably not the lightest chassis to start off with, but the car will be a use for daily duties as well so it will need to look the part.

The choice of power-plant is a K20/K24 combination. This is mated to a 6 speed Honda Accord Euro transmission which is supported by the new hasport engine mounts. I believe this is amongst the first of a few accord euro gearbox's to be used.

Spec List -

2004 Accord Bottom end (Stock)
K20a2 Head (Stock)
6 Speed Accord Euro Gearbox
K20 Oil Pump upgrade
RBC manifold (Port Matched)
S90 70mm Throttle Body
ASP 4-1 Big Tube Headers with Megaphone + Liverpool Exhaust 3inch System
Hondata Kpro - Road tuned by me (BYP)

Estimated car output - 155 - 160kw ~

We had the opportunity to take the car out last week to the local drag strip. Car was equipped with 15inch slicks. Car weight - 1130kg with driver

Best run of the night -

60ft 1.861
1/8 8.281

1/4 12.794
MPH 108

There is more to come with this set-up. Car had issues with the speed sensor. Once we get that sorted, the 60ft times should start dropping

Overall, pretty pleased with the result. This motor is now moving onto a new owner and we'll be building a new motor with slightly higher compression

Stay tuned for further updates

you make it seem so simple !

good work as usual on times, about time those EKK3 mounts came out!

Quick time Benny, congrats! What's the next set-up to go in?

Well done again guys!

Awesome time and great information there!!

Nice work! EGK3 Hasport mounts FTW
I missed drag racing

Great work guys! First I have heard of the Hasport mounts to fit the Euro gearboxes, what's the advantage of using them over a DC5 gearbox?

easier to source would be my pick

From looking at the ratio's there more suited for the k24 power band. Plus cheaper considering everyone is asking 2.5k-3.5k for dc5r boxes.

awesome stuff man, any photos?

Very cool guys, BYP killin it in circuit and drag haha :thumbsup:

well done boys... time for a new challenge eh?

Thanks for the comment guys

Also looking for a new challenge! We are going to head out again this Wednesday for another run. Hoping for mid 12's

i want to take mine this april would you come as well bro btw i wanna let u know pick up the things from you next sat coz busy yesterday if thats ok XD

shoulda put the eg down the strip before you took it apart.

with some slicks it would probably be in the 10's!

That's one thing i regretted, didn't take it down the 1/4mile. Once its completed again, im definitely going to give it a go

we should have a ozhonda lane, been wanting to headdown, hopefully will have my new powerplant in the coming weeks

Update: New PB 12.6 @108mph 60 ft 1.787

Pretty happy with the result of the car at tonight's drag meet. The car was very consistent - 12.6 - 12.8 sec passes. Anyways, time to rip out this motor and get the newly built one in. New motor will have slightly higher compression and possibly cams.

good work benny,, needa come around to grab some parts off you on friday,,, should def have honda lane in the next coming months :P

Nice so different pistons ? What comp are you jumping to

New motor will have 09 TSX piston with a compression ratio of around 11.1. Sticking with OEM parts for now. I might be trying out a set of Billet Cams in the next coming weeks. I'll keep this thread updated

whats the price diff between the euro box and the type r and will the run the same times

Ideally on this set-up, a type R box would better suit this combo. If it was a built k24 motor, I'll use the TSX box for the extra long gearing and mph. If your on a budget, the TSX box would be the cheaper option

So when we heading out to the drags ? , let's line up lol

Might head out in a few weeks. Car is just running a standard K24 for the time being. New motor is waiting on a few parts to get it all done

Sweet , hopefully we can get an Ozhonda lane and can get chris (protune) dc2 k24 ready will be a good k series battle haha

good to see boys,ill get my ass into gear one day and join in on the fun again

We might head up to Jambo this year if there is a few more Honda's competing

Always good to meet up with some qld boys

i went to Sydney Jambo and there was only 2-3 honda on the day
hope next year there will be more

Cool car :)

Sweet

Jimmy killed me last time we raced :(

saw an ep3 and the byp dc2r tonight

had really shitty night best of 14.0 , clutch starts to slip on the first run :(. time for a new clutch then ill be back hopefully have the car properly setup nexttime

luke and benson what did you guys run>?

benson ran a 12.3 @ 124.88 mph street tyres, street trim.

Testing out Australia's first K-swap Rotrex supercharge street registered Honda. Pleasantly happy with the result. On a base tune tune and street trim with street tyres the car ran 124.88mph's. First 3 gears are useless but yeah the MPH is looking very promising. Car is mainly set-up for circuit

Bad night for me as normally do 2.1 60"

Dam 18's low profile tyes

Well be looking for 15's will walls for next time

Nice run for the BYP boys there setup looks sweet :)

what suspension is brandons car running?

Let me know Luke and I'll make it out , hopefully have the new clutch in, have to setup the coilovers soft is the best for drag right ? Also the rear has lots of camber that's not helping aswell for drag ?. Then need to get some proper drag slicks . I woulda came out and said hello to you boys but I was in different lane and was freezing my balls off so just sat in the car the whole time lol

14.6 isnt normal bro. look at his 60'' 2.6. thats the problem. with a 2 sec 60'' he should be in the high 13's or a dead 14.

i got a 14.6 in my stock dc2r with a dodgy cai.

Good MPH!

Pussy footing first 3 gears. Might head back out with slicks to see what its real ET and MPH.

When you boys heading out again ? I think next week is track repair or something . I might take out the b20 Integra last time before I sell it

Whenever i get a chance to do a final tune on the car. The ratios are simply too short for 1/4mile. I will need to get into 6th gear next time out when it gets more power and slicks. BUt if the owner wants to have another crack, then we'll be out there again in a few weeks. Ill keep this thread updated
