[@jesusc4384]

It's really great to see that there's development being put into these cars still!

[@DontWalkerDrive-er]

Damn, Just found this video now. But I have already done the J swap into the 4th gen ! Ended up using a mix of EGK and BBK mounts with a custom rear bracket. Cool to see Hasport get onto the game with the J in the Lude.

[@VTECAcademy]

That's awesome!

[@jonmotes5406]

currently doing this swap myself, does the 5th gen prelude J series mounts work for the 4th gen?

[@DontWalkerDrive-er]

@jonmotes5406 I can't confirm for sure, maybe they can, but I could probably say you'd have a much easier time making the BB points work than going the route I did with the EG/BB mix.

​Would like to know that Honda Prelude 4th Gen, can it support to swap FN2 0R DC5, 6 speed gearbox?

Absolute geniusness! You bois are top notch! I love how long you've been intensely dedicated to the craft!

[@VTECAcademy]

Glad you enjoy it! Thanks for watching.

[@kseries20-24only]

@VTEC Academy YES!!! this is exactly what I've been dreaming about for 4th gen Prelude! J-series ideally, but K20C could be fantastic as well. I imagine this car as perfect w/V6 in it. (and something you could close the hood on ideally..) 😍😍

[@VTECAcademy]

Agreed!

super excited about the J. letting you know personally will have to go with the competion cause working on a J swapped 5th gen. would love if you made some for the 5th gen. lovin the content lately!!!

[@VTECAcademy]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@xAKALISx]

What about a RWD conversion for the 4th gen?

[@Sebringsilverr]

I really enjoyed the prelude content being the owner of a 4th gen using your Og kit since 2016 👌 However if I understand correctly there is no significant change to the k24a2 using the tsx transmission correct? The only major difference seems to be the transmission mount (3 bolt instead of 2). But the engine position remains the same, it doesnt go further back in the engine bay than the actual BBK1 kit right?

[@VTECAcademy]

It moves everything back towards the firewall for better axle angle.

[@Sebringsilverr]

@@VTECAcademy this is def great news because ive been tearing axle boot, caused by the axle angle and the boot gate rubbing on themselves. Would you happed to know if I will need to reweld a new post mount (engine side mount)? Does it sit in the same location?

[@DizzyEnano]

@@VTECAcademy I second his question about the engine side bracket if it needs to be rewelded from the old prelude k swap package?

[@thomaskonkle6620]

Ordered mounts in December 3 months later they refunded me. They said that they would be making them later…I guess this is what they had in mind I hope these will be made for purchase soon. I really want to finish up my k24 swap so I don’t have to fabricate my own mounts and brackets and to finally drive my car again! Looking forward to the drop.

[@VTECAcademy]

Yes, the production versions are ready to be made. They just need to be added to the website.

[@anthonyu93]

So new kits in the works?

[@felixvalentin1618]

Preludes aren’t as common as everyone thinks I’ve seen maybe 3 at most since I moved to PA and back in Rochester NY maybe 1. I think you’d have a limited amount of sales in these swap mounts but I love the engineering that gos into the work you guys do 🔥💯. I want to swap a Tsx with something you don’t see everyday like that k20c1 or something along those lines. Good stuff guys 🫡🔥

[@wrenchaholic_]

Part of the problem is that most people took the h series out of them for other cars. That put a huge dent in the population sending them to the yard. The few left need an alternative swap for the tired drivetrain.

[@VTECAcademy]

I am working on the K20C kit.

[@J.Wick.]

I have a 94 SI I'm slowly restoring...The current/original H23A1 is sitting at 246k. Still feels pretty strong, but I'm beginning to look at my options. What would you all recommend? K20? 24? J? Everyday drivability, but rejuvenated spirit so to speak lol. Not a drag or circuit car. Car and myself are in TN, so smog/etc. isn''t an issue. This is so awesome to see work being done on the BB...I've had one of these cars (4G BB) of some kind since 2001...Love them so much. Wish they would return the name/model, but I know it's extremely doubtful. Thank you for the work and info!!!!!!!!

Inquiered hasport about the options to use a rsx type s as a transplant car and they told me the only mount kit available is for the k24/accord trans . The end game for me is a k24/k20 hybrid engine but would like to use my rsx type s trans .

[@VTECAcademy]

It is a new kit, the sale guy may not have been aware yet. When you order it just select the RSX transmission and that will get you the BB1K2 mount kit which works with your transmission

No. The differential housing is the same size regardless of the transmission. Except of course the even larger AWD diff.
