what are stock k24a3 with the euro six speed worth with hondata and and e/h/i on a base tune without labour
im looking to run in the high 12s on a eg hatch.

If you have a look under my trader thread, i got a K24a3 package for $9750 (without installation). That packages includes everything required for the swap and is guarantee to make 140-145kw at the wheels.

for between 5 to 7gs max i already have the brakes and sussy side done

Your lookin about 7-9k just on basic parts needed to get going.

These are using oem parts and no upgrades to clutch/flywheel or injectors etc.

Best bet would be buy a k24 motor/gbox/ecu/shifter cable & box and engine charge harness. Easy $1.5-2k

Then buy yourself the stage 3 ktuned kswap kit 3-5k.

Then u will need your exhaust welded up to meet with the headers to cat. $150-250.

If u dont want to use oem ecu, then kpro v3 + tune = $1.8k

Plus new belts, oil, coolant, spark plugs $250

Plus other misc fabrication $300

Engine Mounts $500-600. ( this may vary depending which mounts u buy as additional parts will be required. I.e dc/eg subframe and s/rack, fsb etc)

Ac/ps delete kit $300+

crv bracket $100

Optional
+ engineers cert $800-1k if ur in syd
+ bigger rotors & better pads $400

Then install it yourself.

These are just approx figures prices would vary.

The ktune kswap kits should have majority of parts u will need, driveshafts, harnesses, fuel kit, rad hoses and sensors, intake and headers

Hope these figures have helped out abit.

Benson has given you a price already. If you look around real hard, and if you have some luck you can probably knock ~$1k off that price by sourcing everything yourself and substituting some of the 'brand name' parts with used oem.

At the end of the day, it is still a very expensive swap.

Question about the IACV for K20. Mine has been playing up lately specially since the weekend. Idle is screwed.

What tool if any, have any of you used to unscrew the 5 sided star screws that hold the electrical plug to the actual valve?

Went to repco, supercheap and sydney tools but did not find anything.

I believe both small torx bits (for screwdrivers) and larger socket torx can be bought at bunnings.
