Its a motor swap. Long story short.
The letter is the model year made,
kinda like
Fox
SN95
New Edge
S197
Hondas go by letters
A lot of people hear of the B16 swap
its a B Generation 1.6L motor swapped into a something or another year civic, integra, accord, who knows.
The K20 is what is in the newer model civics, and S2000.
K Generation motor, 2.0L displacement.
The K24 is like a big block I guess.

What a quik lil shyt (Civic)
Quick Civic, but I too struggle w/ the logic......1 POS + all that work + $7-9k = $5k car with around 200whp.
Not at all. You wanna talk reality? There's a damn good reason why sports cars and exotics are *never* (read again NEVER) front wheel drive. It's never even a consideration!
Seeing a fwd car a the track, stuffing in huge front DRs or slicks with skinnies on the back makes me laugh every time. It's just ridiculous. :smmon: They don't even do as well as rwd cars on an open track! WTF is the point?
The saddest part is, those cars often have plenty of power to post much better times if it weren't for their ass-backwards configuration.
Again, rwd, awd, period. Leave the fwd cars for the grocery getting.
Is it just me or does anyone else wonder at the logic of going that fast in a roller skate?
The Z maybe, it has some stability to it, the roller skate.... one bad move and they are washing you and the car off of the road with a fire hose
Bet those 12 inch tires are really spinning at over a hundred miles an hour :lol1:

I think I saw a pretty quick Honda. Not bad...
that's a fast weed-whacker.

I question the logic of having a convertible sports car....handling sucks, it's heavy as hell....and it looks like a girls car. So for you to bust someone's balls for wanting to go fast in a "roller skate" to me, is pretty laughable.
+1
My cousin has a k20 swapped eg. The swap cost him a little less that 6k when it was all said and done. Yes it's fast but hes's got a 15 year old civic that cost him well over 10k. But you guyz gotta understand that we cant all be driving mustangs. That would be a pretty boring world. He let me borrow his car and I gotta admit it was a lot of fun.
are you guys totaly missing the part where the kid in the civic yells out "start out in 4th" to the corvette driver?
FWD Imports are fun to watch and do so well on Pinks......
i know a few FAST CIVIC/INTEGRA owners that also owns a fast European, American Muscle & exotic Japanese cars for a beater
Give the muther***ers credit! :beer: I wouldn't mind owning an 11 sec Civic HB myself.. Maybe in the near future....
I am actually trailering a K24 EK9 to the track for my friend today, his previous best was 12.1 full interior on DR's
We hope 11s easily today!!!
Actually the S2000 has a completely unique engine, the f20c and f22c.
