[hang1115]

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!

Every thing should fit from what i know but the ECU are different so presume you would need wiring sorted out, hope some one can shed some more light

Spend the money on a K24 instead. It'll be cheaper also

^^ Agreed...
Make sure you research before purchasing though

But would a k24 be a easy fit like the k20z? Cus the euro chasis is different the dc5

A guy has recently put a K24 in his Dc5.. in the noob thread somewhere cause he hydrolocked his k20a2...
As i said research into it...
Shouldnt be to hard though

^^ 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

Whats everyone's take on a stock k24 vs k20z?

kw is high on the k20, tq is higher o the k24;

I would love to have a k24 block in my dc5, but obviosuly not going to do the transplant unless tehre is somethign wrong with my block.

Awesome job V8KLLR! I wana do sumfin like that too but dont think its worth it unless sumfin goes wrong with my motor.

Thanks man! I've done alot more to it since then. Just kept it on the down low cause people talk too much trash and I didnt want thieves to know what parts I have. If you want an NA monster go K20/24 frank. Im leaning more towards force induction of some sort. One thing I miss about my k20a2 is the VTEC and the loud crossover. But I looove the torque and power I get throughout the revs with the K24a3
