sorry to dig up an old posts... but im just wanting some answers...

if i had most k20a parts...
say head... transmission.. driveline.. gearbox loom.. immobilizer and key..
is there anything else i would need from the k24 that would be useful in a build like this... or is the short block all i need??

i know tinkerbell uve passed on ur block...
but where would i be able to get one?? yonas??
and how much would i be looking at around this time??

get a CRV K24 and use that, the head bolts straight on..
Strong for honda have them in N.Z. for around $1800+ Gst +freight to aussie.. so maybe $2500 for a complete K24..

[NTR16N]

so what exactly is included in that completeness??

is this the half cut minus exterior parts and panels??
long block gearbox computer etc...

or is this just the engine block itself??
and who would i be able to contact to find out about more...
prices contact details etc... is that the only place..

thanks buddy..

For around $1500 - $2000 you will only get a long block. Maybe the starter motor as well if they are willing to throw it in. The stock rods are pretty weak though, they are designed for 6500rpm redline. You might consider changing it to aftermarket rods if you want to rev it to over 7000rpm.

Here's a comparison between the stock CRV K24 rod and Cunningham forged rod (stock rod and piston came off the block I bought from tinkerbell a while ago ):

nice comparison
it does look very thin.
nice rods bling bling

I weighed up my rods and pistons today..
K20A total weight 1015gms
K20A-2 1006gms
K20- crower rods and CP pistons 830gms..
Aftermarket is alot better..

Hey guys, I've a K24a3 in my car (Accord Euro) and I plan to do something like what's mentioned here in this thread somewhere down the track next year.

I'm also thinking of doing the Hondata Euro flash stage 4 which includes custom CAI, Toda headers? & "Jtune" exhaust as well as ECU reflash & dyno tuning. Is this advisable?

There's also mention on the hondata website about K20 cams & K20 variable 50 degree cam gears. Other engine mods I'm investigating include Hondata Intake gasket, UR underdrive pulley set & Spoon TB.

spoon TB wont fit as this is designed for the K20 euro R not the K24 euro
