Did any North American cars even have this engine?

 

[Darkness]

No that's whay it's a jdm engine and go to hmotors or you could always just use Google

they go for about 6,000 dollars before shipping and handling why do want a k20a?

you're looking at around 8K for the swap and to make under 200whp

Not to mention finding a Car to put it in. That swap would suck.


Finance an S2K, and youll have RWD LSD.

Looks like he has a Elise, Im guessing he is looking to replace the motor thats in it.......

That's exactly what I'm planning. It would appear based on my research that a 2002-2004 Acura Integra RSX Type S with the K20A2/6spd trans is the best US option. While it has slightly less compression than the K20A JDM, it has other desirable features the JDM doesn't have (i.e. cam lobe readjustment upon oil pressure drop). Basically the same engine with only a 20 HP difference (due to slightly different internals).

Since I plan to supercharge it when installed (with other intake/exhaust bits), it would deliver slightly over 300HP on a standard internals engine (desirable on a track car that runs all day long).

Thanks,

KM

get the k20z1

 

[MacLotus]

get the k20z1

The European pre-engineered/manufactured kits (mounts, specialized axles, manifolds, cooling hoses, adapters, plus tons more) are designed to perfectly adapt to the Elise, and are designed around the K20A2 Type R with 6 spd GB... very specific. (Kit- $6K)

Since I'm not a fabricator, I've chosen to go with a time-proven design/kit rather than experiment with a new design on a high-speed track car.

While the K20Z1 is similar, I'm told the GB design/mounts are different. But thank you for your comments.
