i was wondering if it was possible, without to much trouble, to put a K20 or a K24 civic engine in my '95 4dr? i am pretty sure it will fit but i dont know if it will fit with the K series standard transmission attached.

k swap will run you about 6k, and THAT is just only the motor and the extra parts needed.. if you let a shop do it for you its going to run you almost 8k to install professionally...
now, unless you have very nice hook ups or alot of money, k swap is most likely out of the question for you...

yeah like he said u dont have the moneyfor a k series . build what ever motor u have up and boost it thats ur best bet
no, its not for the rookie tuner. plan on investing a few weeks and maybe about $10k
yes it is, but i have a solution!
answer their question asap, and the thread gets solved fast. so when others search they can find what their looking for and not have to make a new thread over the same old s**t!
its bullet proof!

dd i just compare the K to a H??
as for the overrating the K series.....try daily driving a B series with 260whp, iv seen it done with a k, its his daily driver
all motor k-series with the average builder are making 235whp! thats good enough for 11's in a CRX. get that with any b-series or d-series with basic bolt ons and minor headwork. i'd love to see that.dd i just compare the K to a H??

A G-SR with minor headwork and bolt-ons can make that power easily
really? can u please show me a dyno graph and a mod list capable of 235whp all motor on a GSR with a stock block? please. also, dont forget to show how much torque its making.
this is VERY simple. you are incorrect.

ok, so K-series isn't the way to go. and with extra parts it sounds like that makes room for more things to go wrong. i thought about a GSR but i thought a civic engine would be less trouble, looks like not. all i want is an N/A, i like turbo's but not for my daily driver. i am looking at around 220-250 whp, is that possible in a N/A?
sorry about not doing a serch first, i didn't think of that. oops

250 very possible, real easy in a K, more work needed though in a B, including upping the compression will help.
yeah i am not going to go with a K, i like the B18's. or would an H22 or F23 be better and a little easier to reach 220-250 whp?

H22 shouldn't be too hard to acheive, hell they're not that far from 200 to begin with.
its not a debate thread, so just stay on topic
if you want 220 - 250 NA and you want to Daily Drive it, K-Series is your only choice. you'll be hard pressed to get 220 whp in a GSR without building both the head and the block rather extensively. you can get that EASILY in a k20a2 with just bolt ons and cams. Not to mention, you'll be lucky to see 135 ft lbs of trq with that GSR. 160 ft lbs/trq should be no problem with the k20. the choice is clear. all the money you'll spend building that GSR, you could spend on a bone stock k20 and a few extra swap parts. and what you'll have is a more powerful, more reliable, lower mileage swap.
