Acura Rsx type s k24 swap (rbb) part 1

[@aicontentviral]

this gonna be my first project, my elantra engine blew up and while it’s being repaired I realize i’m gonna need a project car I can actually abuse until I pay off my loan. can’t wait to get started just looking around for a cheap enough type s to make it worth it

[@aicontentviral]

were you able to keep the ac and heating? I can’t seem to find a ktuned system for it but maybe the stock lines fit with the k24 in there

[@rarewitit7899]

Everything fits all stock no mods ac and ps work

[@jesselee4405]

If you're using the RSX ecu becareful as it will run hella lean once in vtec. It'll detonate inside the block and cause your engine to smoke. I highly highly highly suggest ktuner, cheaper, or kpro. You really need this can't stress this enough

[@jesselee4405]

Oh it's an 02 or 03 RSX. You need kpro then

[@rarewitit7899]

I’ve ran type s and type r Ecus on k24 they don’t lean out at all , done it for over 10 years

[@jesselee4405]

@@rarewitit7899 wrong......

[@rarewitit7899]

Lmao , I already proven it don’t need your opinion

[@kseries20-24only]

@Rarewitit this is exactly what I'm working on right now! Question, on my K24A2 I'm putting in I did the Type S oil pump and 50degree VTC, can the stock Type S ECU run it OK with the 50degree VTC or should I watch out for getting on it too hard without some kind of tune?

[@rarewitit7899]

Still runs good with type s Ecu

[@jesselee4405]

It'll run lean in vtec and cause detonation. Bad bad idea

[@XenomorphLV426]

Whats market price range for a k24 and needed accessories?

[@kevinbustamante9087]

Bro, I want to do something similar but on a JDM Integra DC5 automatic, is it possible for it to run without any problem if I use the OEM K24A ECU which is also automatic? By the way, the engine swap includes the K24A rbb3 engine with automatic transmission, harness, OEM ECU and fuse box

[@rarewitit7899]

I’ve never done a automatic set up before , but I’m sure it should work if you can get the Ecu programmed to turn on

[@anxiety_driven]

Did you vacuum the ac system or just let all that fly out? Perfect timing im finally swapping my rsx but im stuck on what to do with the ac

[@rarewitit7899]

I just let it out , you usually vacuum the system when your about to recharge it to make sure you get the max Freon

[@TOX_Ron]

This is the percect video i plan i doing this to my rsx soon! I will be asking a lot of questions!

[@rarewitit7899]

Check out the whole series all the info you need is in each video

[@TOX_Ron]

@@rarewitit7899 man i wish you were closer i am taking mine to a mechanic but i just want to know what all i need to buy to make this work. Seeing all 5 parts of the video it looks like i wont need much!

[@TOX_Ron]

@@rarewitit7899 i do have one question tho. I have been having a lot of trouble finding k24a2. All i find is JDM k24a online. What is the main difference? In terms of if something messes up do i need to find the part locally or from japan

[@TOX_Ron]

@@rarewitit7899 also. If i was to drop this in my rsx with a k20 head with the rbc intake manifold and stock k24 throttle body will i be able to run the rsx type s ecu without issues

[@rarewitit7899]

Jdm k24 is k24a2 just from Japan , throwing a k20 head on the tsx block won’t be faster it’s the same thing , just need 50 degree vtc and type s oil pump kit , stock Ecu can run any setup

[@edbrine_]

can you k24 swap a acura rsx base(automatic)? like do the same here just as an automatic and not manual

[@rarewitit7899]

Yea

[@bhadz100]

Have you tried dropping the whole subframe to roll out the engine from the side

[@rarewitit7899]

Yea I have a lot of videos on how to drop motor without cherry picker

[@bhadz100]

@@rarewitit7899 thanks ill have to find those.

[@tenorio999]

Thanks for the video.

[@rarewitit7899]

Thank you for watching

[@universalrebel503]

Are you in socal? How much would you charge to put a k24 in a type s with the old engine out already

[@rarewitit7899]

Yea I’m in Victorville, but me up on Instagram or email [e-mail] for quote

[@raysb240sx]

informative video bro💯

[@noedelcid1181]

Is a k24a2 engine swap the same on a base rsx in everything (parts - hoses ?

[@rarewitit7899]

Ecu will start but not good to drive but really the only difference

[@princeali4691]

Amazing video bro ❤

[@rarewitit7899]

Thanks 🔥

[@caitlinb8127]

what motor mounts did you use

[@rarewitit7899]

Rsx stock mounts

[@jesselee4405]

Itll pass if you use the stock ecu, but thats s bad idea. You need to find a hot smog tech really

[@XenomorphLV426]

Why bad idea?

[@jesselee4405]

@@XenomorphLV426 you'll run VERY lean once vtec cracks. It'll cause detonation. I ran a stock ECU on my k24setup and it started smoking from the tail pipe, and I didn't crack vtec often and reliably which sucked

[@HuertasSolutions]

I have a project car and is Acura rsx type s 2003 but is the shell , I already find the engine and bout to buy it but I have a question The manual transmission 6 speed from tsx will fit or it have to be only the rsx

[@rarewitit7899]

Only Rsx

[@jewgs30]

I plan on doing a k24a2 swap on a base 5 speed, was wondering if I’m able to run it w a stock ecu or would I have to switch to kpro

[@acevedohiram]

Do not run that with a base ecu. He runs his sometimes with the type S ecu. The map is at least close on those.

[@rarewitit7899]

Only type s Ecu

[@jewgs30]

@@rarewitit7899 I appreciate u 🙏

[@jesselee4405]

Nooooo

[@Varshan130]

Will I have any problems if I just run k24 accessories instead of k20(water pump housing, ac, ps)

[@rarewitit7899]

Nothing will bolt up ac and power steering will not work

[@XenomorphLV426]

Does a k24 pass smog? Ca

[@rarewitit7899]

Yea I’ve had them pass smog , swap is usually 3200 installed with motor labor and parts
