***K24Z1 project teaser***

on the K24A3 TB, underneath the main inlet theres an extra flat piece of aluminium, even tho there is a rectangular cutout in the gasket, when pressed up against the RBB, this blocks the idle bypass... on the J32A3 however, youll notice there is no flat aluminium continuation under the inlet... so when using the normal gasket (or J32A3 gasket) on the RBB or RBC, the idle bypass will have a leak....

ill send him an email and check, im not sure if he has any '06 tsxs in atm... (he normally just deals with engines only)

Ahh, I see. Thanks for the explanation. Now I understand which part it is. What is the solution to this short of either using the RBC manifold or using an adaptor plate to block up the bypass?

well even on the RBC there is an idle bypass... so on mine im just welding it up... the simple solution tho as you say, would be a gasket or blanking plate

or, there is an intake manifold that bolts directly to the K24A3 block, that does not have an idle bypass... AND it makes more power than thr RBC

buy one aaronng!

Wow better intake than RBC? What is it? Do tell?

This modding is getting more exciting by the day.

need more updates!

hehehe not sure if it goes aswell top end... but definately more torque mid range... its called the RRC (or RSP) and is off the FN2R

heres a pic of its "chamber of torque" lol

**johnprocter** · 15-09-2008 04:11 PM

LOL fkn hell man i cant wait till you install all this shiz

Haha nice! I can't imagine the MAP sensor going "what the" when you first put on the RBC and then going "WTF!!?!?!?" after you put the RRC on.

Looks like I am going to have to wait for your hand-me-downs

**Suntzu** · 15-09-2008 04:28 PM

So maybe this RRC will be viable if straight bolt on 64mm throttlebody can be sourced.

or maybe you can just bolt up the RRC and FNR2 64mm TB as one unit no mods to the K24!

Yeah, was thinking about that since the FN2R has an electronic throttle too. Just need to check that teh Euro's ECU is able to operate it. It should since it can run the J32A TB.

lol you shouldnt seen my engine when i first started it with the J32A3 TB on it lol car was like "holy sh*t so much air!"

lol yeah i think i ordered too many parts lol

RRC manifold is PERFECT for J32A3 TB, becuase the RRC does not have an idle bypass, so they will mate perfectly with no holes

im trying to weigh up now whether to stay with RBC or try an RRC... decisions decisions...

**Euro08Jaz** · 15-09-2008 09:39 PM

both the euro type r and civic have k20 right? how great would the difference of each intake manifold be? would the tb diameter be a good simple mans indicator?

i understand that there are differences between both the k20's used in the civic and euro such as the civic (jdm) making greater power at higher rpms.

so we cant use a euro type r throttle body due to it not being compatible with our electronic throttle where as the civic type r is?
