Pp1 beat '92 - k20a

[040501912]

A guy in Melbourne had a CEL with his beat because something was up with his timing as well. Hope you find out whats wrong with your motor soon.

I think is a common thing with the beat to have that problem.
I've searched through the net, and most of the guys do have the same issue.
Cylinde 1 sensor and TDC sensor.

I do have the replacement Dizzy coming to test it out.

But I couldn't help my self to wait for the parts to arrive next month and just bought a replacement engine and going to pick it up over the weekend.

Some generic photos that you guys know...


EP3 K20A2 EDM / UK Spec
EP3 Gear Box non LSD but has an OS Giken LSD
Engine Loom
ECU
Shifter linkages

But it's missing a few things like Intermediate shafts, Drive Shafts, and clutch slave.
which may not be hard to find.

They way I probably mounted would be similar to Z car arrangement






I did a preliminary Measurements from the K20 and the b18c they are not much different in sizes.

From my rough measurements, K20 would still sit between the chassis rail of the Beat. and just got to figure out how high would the engine fit.

so the main hurdle right now would be
Engine mounts
Wiring
Drive shafts
and engine cover to close up.

we see how it plan out, It probably be the first k20 Honda beat

Went out pick up the engine on Sunday. 2 hours out of town just to grab them and 2 hours back!
well it was worth of the Journey considering how much i paid for it... :P

EDM EP3 K20A2 Approx 80K kms - Pretty much same as DC5R AUDM spec



Got the Sellers place and we went over it and checked everything is good.

This is what my Findings:

- Rocker cover has been repainted at some stage, Knock sensor was snapped during transport
- Seller could not find the ECU and the Shifter cable
- oil looks cleaned
- Checked the Engine, Crank it over. Everything looks good Except for the surface Rust...
Those Rust from UK.. makes it look like it was found from the THAMES RIVER!! LOL
- Since the Box doesn't come with LSD, the seller passed me a LSD and it was not OS Giken as he was advertised earlier. It's a standard Helical LSD. Oh Well better than Nothing

At the end of that I Got cheaper price than what was agreed on with some of those circumstances.

So after all that commotions in the afternoon, I then got straight to BTMotorsports Workshop and Drop it to the Old Man.

Results come out pretty good!
Cold Crank, T/B wide open

210 210 210 210 consistant on all 4 cylinders

It will be awhile may be a month or two before i start working on Beat Conversion.
as I'm still in the middle of working with EG Civic... chasing up for the race on summer ! a fair bit to go lol...

Just have Too many projects at one time X_x LOL....
Will keep this updated

Cheers

Still trying to figure out if the stock hub would take the launching load from the k20.
