Honda is one of the biggest names in the JDM enthusiast community. Sure, a lot of people make fun of Honda vehicles, because there are a lot of ricers out there with D-Series engines, but there are a lot of Hondas out there with powerful little engines. Honda produced some of the most legendary four cylinders ever in the 90s, so when the world got its hands on the K20, there were high expectations. This short article is designed to get you up to speed on everything you need to know about the Honda K20.

Love my K20Z3.. Over 150K miles on my 2010 SI sedan, still pulls awesome. No issues with the engine at all. Life at 8K RPM is pretty special, I'd always had more torque prior to owning Hondas. I love them, and long live the NA motor.

We're both driving the last iteration of the true VTEC motors-8k revs are the past now. I'm at 122k and have a Habanero Red Pearl sedan with HFP lip and OEM fogs, Mugen visors, short shifter and braided brake lines, Corsport base and shift bushings, Stoptech braided clutch line, HFP suspension. Keeping it stock as possible besides those minor upgrades. Anything on yours?

Youll hit issues after 100K.. You'll pretty much wanna do a tranny and head overhaul at around 100K.. New valvetrain, new chain, new syncros, replace all old clutch parts(cmc/smc and lines).. I mean, yeah, you can take the car to 150-200K without changing these things, but the car will likely not be running all that well and it becomes a ticking time bomb.. If you enjoy driving the car hard at times, doing the 100K overhaul is ideal. Just did everything on my 05-06 and the thing feels like its brand new and it pulls HARD with all the bolt ons, Kpro, and Supertech Valvetrain and tsx cams... Also running a Ghostwerks k20z1 trans(LSD, Syncrotech carbon kit, gearX first and second, syncrotech sleeves).. Tranny will hold 600whp easy when I go boost.

I got the sport trim because it seems to be the only NA 2 liter in the civic stable with a stick. The difficulty is finding aftermarket support for non turbo applications, as you mentioned.

K20Z in a factory standard family sedan civic FD2 is still a riot to drive when pushed. 155hp from a 2.0 NA. Mine is already 12 years old n done 260,000km n given enough highway, it WILL reach 230kmh. Stock! And in an auto! (theres only an auto option where i come from) Just make sure u leave it in 4th n let it scream to 7000rpm, it will reach that speed. No problem so far, just keep to a scheduled maintainance n it will last forever.

It's definitely not the fastest but the 5,800 crossover is so much fun. Car has been completely stock, got new tires and will need a clutch soon. But I'm afraid of sacrificing reliability for more performance. Need some help picking out upgrades that are focused on longevity!

Hey man! Can you make a video on the K20C2...? I bought a 2016 civic coupe 2.0 with a manual and really want to squeeze more power out of it N/A. I drive ALOT (I bought car brand new, over 40,000 miles in 2-1/2 years) and dont want to be bothered by adding more complex systems(turbo, etc)... I've seen a picture of the 1.5 turbo Piton shaft showing how thin it is compared to a #2 pencil..! I hope this isnt the case for the 2.0 N/A... Also, I always hear about air flow for more HP, however with my stock air filter box, when I open it up i ALWAYS see a few grains of sand/rock.. I'm talking about TINY, however it is visible to the naked eye. If i were to put on a Cold air intake, or even a different drop-in filter, I can only assume those small particles I normally see on the bottom on my stock air filter box would end up in my engine... trying to be squeezed thru the oxygen/fuel line, into the combustion chamber, only to scratch the cynlinder walls thus shortening its life..? Is this a right way of thinking about Cold air/short ram intakes? I know interference type engines now-a-days have such small clearances inside the engine, requiring a a 0 weight oil..so i am sure grit can get stuck in those small gaps as well..? Great video! Sub+like from me! Thanks in advance!

one other advantage over the B series is that the exhaust doesn't have to run under the engine.

B series is where it's at with the Japanese Type R B16 and B18 engines going up to 9,000RPM stock. Plus i-VTEC just can't compare in sheer cool factor to the older simple VTEC with its two cam profiles giving you that sudden change in exhaust note.

I never said B series is better. I said it is cooler specifically because of the lack of the "i" in front of the "VTEC". They feel a little more raw than the K series engines. I prefer that slightly older, simpler design, it's more enjoyable to me. If I cared about what has the better specs I wouldn't be buying a Honda in the first place.

Hi, i have bunch of question and i thought asking here won´t hurt anyone. I have 95 civic sedan with B16B and i´d like to swap it for k20a, maybe using k24 block. 1. When buying used engine, what is the "right" milage? Is 10 000 miles / 160 000 km too much? 2. If i were to buy k20a type r, what K24 type block should i be looking for? 3. Is swaping blocks risky / affects reliability? 4. Going for aftermarket camshafts may not be the best thing if you mind a reliability of the car. What about forced induction? Does turbocharging / supercharging k20 affects its reliability and if so, how much? Thanks for reading through, really appreciate all informations.

Well mileage for a well maintained k20 isn't that important... i bought my k20a2 with 110.000 miles, bought it from a lady who rarely drove her ep3 type r hard , and was completely stock.. i fully built it (keeping it n/a) and swapped it in my 2005 em2 civic coupe, it now has everything possible done to it, has 269 whp, and gets daily driven hard! I now had it for 4 years, never skipped a beat.. but i change my oil & trans fluid every 4.000 km's , do the valve clearances every 3000 km's , and overal check the entire engine every 5.000 km... just good preventive maintenance... If you want a frankenstein block (k20/k24) , best buy is the jdm K24A... - i also have different cams (dragcartel 2.2 endurance cams) if they have been installed correctly, with al clearances in mind , and buy a well known brand , you'll have no problems at all... If you have any more questions , feel free to add my on facebook , we can talk and share pictures over there 😉 Good luck mate !

You have to get it barb. For detail info, visit ur dmv they will get in details with u. Basically u do a swap with any motor of the same or newer year, keep it identical as ur old one. 4cyl with 4cyl, 6 with 6 etc. Same made, honda with honda, toyota with toyota etc. U should keep everything as stock as possible, intake manifold, exhaust manifold, intake air cleaner etc, no jdm after marker bs ( until u pass). And any import motor will Most likely not pass smogged. Find a usdm motor. And find a shop that can actually do the job. I actually was closed to buying a 97 civic hatch with a legit b18 ls swap and got legal bar. We went to the dmv to check out the paper work to verify if its legit, and it is but i end up didnt buy it cause it wasnt up to wat i want. Car is nice has ac but no ps. No low end power at all. On paper the b18 ls version made 150hp, my accord k24 made 166hp, but in a civic shelf, the b18 was supposed to get way better weight to power ratio. My accord being 3500 lbs vs 2200lbs still prove to have way better low end power, acceleration, speed and rev better and has ps. The civic with b18 ls motor coouldnt move at first gear until i smash the pedal at 1st gear to over 4k. I barely tab my accord pedal at first gear , the car respond right the way. At 3k rpm the k24 make way more power than the b serie at 5, 6 krpm.
