k20z1 on dc5r?

[Mattski_VTIR]

Hi guys,

Just wanna know if i ll be able to bolt on a k20z1 engine (from 2006 dc5s) straight into a 2002 dc5r without an modification?thx!

We swapped a k20z1 complete short block into a dc5r that was starved of oil at the track and did some major damage. The k20a2 head bolts straigt on the z1 block, so i would assume that the only change would be ecu, if you are using kpro then it should all be fine. Dunno if this sheds any light, but the 24 will be much cheaper, a Z1 short block from honda was about 6 grand!! ouch!!

I heard if you do some engine mods to the k24 it will have as much or more (im not sure) revs as the k20 and on top of that more torque.

Have to crack the internals to get it to rev higher. I've dream of having my K24 rev up to 9000rpm.

And if you really put some good time and effort and money into a K20A, it goes hard... K20A can push good numbers without making it a K24, ask Adrian from TODA
Hybrid is good and all but a pure K20A.... mmmmmmm thats yummy

If you really wanted to have a power house, i suggest looking at k24/26 if you got the balls and are a baller ^^

^^ THATS ME! lol.
Get the K24 bro, you will be very happy. Its cheaper and full of TORQUEY goodness. Try to find a 06+ K24A3, I think they are the ones that come with the oil cooler. Essential items are, engine mounts- i use hasports 60a or 62a i think they are street mounts and my car rattles LESS than it did before for some reason. KPRO ecu -source this first because your going no where without it and a tune. I went to Toda. It took Adrian 3 hours. Oh and find a mechanic that knows what his doing. Someone that specialises in Honda. I remember my former mechanic saying that he had to rearrange parts, trim stuff down and the K24 sat abit higher than the k20

Is yours a silver dc5r? lol dont remember seeing it at work. Mustve been the weeks i took off
