K24 = More Torque / Less Revs.
K20 = More Revs / Less Torque.

K20 = More expensive.
K24 = Less expensive.


Up to you, torque or revs.
Huge price difference though. (if JDM K20A)

I havent driven a manual K24. But a K20 will be sufficent enough for daily use and occasional track days.

Thats Right! Most K20 owners i know usually end up getting a K24. Go figure. K24's are cheap. Add the right retainers,valves spring,some mild cams and you will shit all over a K20. Yes K20's will always rev harder, around the track the k20 is harder to drive than a k24. Here's an example. Last turn at Wakefield Pk a k20 has to shift back to second and a k24 can stay in 3rd. There is no replacement for displacement. Dont get me wrong a JDM K20 is quality but expensive.

Hit the nail on the head right there!
compared to how much a K20 goes for nowadays, a K24 is a better option for you! Extra displacement + some mild mods = win!
