  • I've decided to K swap my lovely little Honda Civic! The K24 engine is the king of Honda motors and it's swapped into almost everything because it's such a great motor! I'm putting a K24 from a TSX in the EK Hatch to replace it's current B16b. The B series was a great motor setup and I've had a lot of fun with it but it's time to move on to the Mighty K20 / K24! With a TSX K24 and K20 head, i'm shooting for the most amount of power possible out of a naturally aspirated, non built motor! We'll see what happens!
    Special thanks to Ktuned for sponsoring this build!

    Something to note about this video: We no longer endorse Jspec as a source for buying JDM parts. Jspec was supposed to be a reputable source to buy parts from instead of buying from the classifieds. It's sad to hear there are allegations against them for selling stolen parts from Japan. Because of this, we can no longer endorse them as a source for buying JDM parts.

      As long as you don't crack open the hydraulic lines on the master cylinder, you can remove the booster. It has it's own set of seals, and does not make contact with hydraulic fluid (unless the master cylinder is heavily worn, and it would require replacement at that point anyways)

      It doesnt. But, I know Ben will also be doing other upgrades in the powertrain, such as a ceramic clutch, lightweight flywheel, limited slip differential, Urethane or Delrin mounts, etc... All of these will increase NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) and will take away from it's smooth driving characteristics as it had. I have actually driven this Civic, and it changed my opinion of Hondas of that era. Can't wait to meet up with Ben sometime this year and get an opportunity to drive it afterwards.

      If he runs hard mounts, doesnt keep ac, runs a twin disk, doesnt have decent coilovers, or runs a 3" exhaust, uses race harnesses only, deletes the heater core, or runs a top mount shifter, it's not that it's not streetable, it's that you wouldnt want to use it to pick up paper towels at cvs or hit a drive through late at night. It just becomes an annoyance for normal life stuff.

That B16B is a damn gem and I personally think that motor will be triple the cost of a K20 one day.

    Out of all the motor swapped videos and DIY video channels, this is by far on my top list of videos I have watched. Down to quality and the prep work and how you guys make these videos make me appreciate it so much more. You guys don't seem like clout chasers on youtube and you're genuinely doing this out of pure love for the cars you guys own. That is gold to me. Every popular/big car youtuber seems like clout chasers and just doing it for the views.

And it had the best shifter I ever used; smoother than my new 1972 MG, my new 1987 Z28 Camaro, my new 2005 Civic sedan, my new 2017 K24 Accord Coupe. (Yes, I’m old, lol).
