The life of the transmission depends on how often and how hard you launch the car, and how hard to shift gears. Back to the point at hand. With boost, you can safely run about whp for an extended period of time. With a built bottom end you push power upwards of whp before you need aftermarket sleeves in the block. With aftermarket sleeves, you can push upwards of 1,whp. These kinds of power levels break a lot of parts. Looking to buy a second car and the one I looked at happens to be equipped with the k Over thousand miles.
Would this by itself be a red flag for a daily commute of 70 miles r. I just recently broke the oil port on my k20a2. Is it possible to exchange the block with any K-series block. I read online you can use the a3 block with a2 internals but you have to change the rod, piston and crankshaft to the a2 for clearance.
It can sometimes be worth holding out a little longer and extending your budget for some worthwhile upgrades. Things like an upgraded throttle body can provide decent power upgrade potential for minimal cost.
Besides the obvious routine servicing, typical maintenance can include valve adjustment every 24, miles. Valve clearances for a cold engine are 0. Camshafts on the K20 are rotated by a timing chain which has a service life longer than , miles. As for the problems you may well encounter during your ownership, and which are well worth looking out for when it comes to buying.
Oil leaks, as with all engines, can sometimes occur. With highly worn engines, after checking the mounts, it issue may lie with an elongated timing chain. Engines produced between the model years can sometimes suffer from the fourth cylinder overheating. Although it took some convincing for the die-hard B-series owners, the K20 certainly turned into yet another powerplant than Honda can deservedly be proud of and in many ways was a large leap from the legendary B With its i-VTEC technology, it enabled significantly improved airflow and also added coil on plug technology.
Its tuning potential makes it a fantastic choice for either upgrading your existing engine or using it for a swap to create a whole different animal. With up to hp achievable with the later engines, they can eventually be pushed to 1,hp with extensive modifications. Could this be the perfect combination?

This video explains why the K-series is one of the finest engines Honda ever produced: Honda is undoubtedly one of the biggest names in the JDM community, and certainly one of the largest when it comes to the aftermarket tuning scene. K20Z2 This engine was a replacement for the economy K20A1, featuring a new longer-runner intake manifold, restyled camshafts, and drive-by-wire mechanism.
K20C1 After Honda ceased production of the original K20 engine in , production was put on hold for some time until its rebirth with the newly-designed K20C1 engine in K20C2 After the impressive output of the K20C1, Honda returned to their economy range with this naturally aspirated version of the K20C.

How could we not complete our guide with a sound compilation video?! Thanks for any help. Curiousity killed the car Tags: None.
This guy is in the states and he has a built K20 in his EK civic Hatchback. Not bad for a little civic. This is it here. Comment Post Cancel. Originally posted by milkchicken View Post.
