Full Build: + Cheapest K24 swap HONDA FIT making a Type R !

[@brickoutside]

2400lbs and a 201 hp engine is an insane combo while maintaining practicality of a Fit

This man dropped the subframe and engine out of the bottom without a lift, Mark you are the GOAT, keep up the great work and content.

[@HondaStreetGarage]

I appreciate that!

[@AaronAverett]

He also once overhauled a transmission with one hand, while holding a camera with the other, and somehow managed to produce both a working transmission and a high water mark of filmmaking. The world needs more of Mark.

[@goldar4846]

Must be a fun life when you're that easily impressed by nothing.

[@talonted1990]

​@goldar4846 Let me elaborate for all you simps, I am simply giving the man props for doing work himself unlike these other KZbin creators who pay someone else to do their work and never turn a wrench. If your weak comment was directed towards me I'm living my dream and I could care less about posting any of it on Social Media platforms so hopefully you live an exciting life just like I do.

[@Andy3x]

Idk why my broke ass went to fb marketplace looking at 2nd gen fits like i have the money to swap it.

[@KingArthurshorts]

I think most people watching this video feel the same way, cause im here feeling and doing the same exact way

that makes 3 of us🤣🤣

Meh just buy it, and do simple stuff while saving for the actual swap.

Fantastic build! The Honda Fit is one of the most underrated platforms out there. Glad to see someone taking it to its full potential. Thanks for sharing!

[@Suppos3]

I've been watching this channel for a while even though I lost a couple of accounts. What I like about this channel is that all the bills are realistic to actual working people

[@nololol]

i was so obsessed with fits in high school but once i got old enough to buy fun weekend cars it felt too slow....this is amazing

[@hhjhj393]

That helps me remember I am poor.

[@StopWars420]

It's still slow even with the swap.

Strange...most children think faster is better, not considering practicality...

[@BrennanMcKissick]

As a GE8 owner, I've been waiting on people to start releasing jumper harnesses and get the quirks of this swap sorted so it's more plug and play. It's definitely on my to-do list at some point.

[@Bmak2301]

You are an absolute legend. The fit community really likes gatekeeping info for the swap. You are the best!

[@Snicker60515]

I loved watching how that engine fit in the boot of your car, that was crazy! But the SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT of this video was you showing how you dropped that engine without a lift, BRAVO SIR! Now I'm getting the itch to take out a personal loan and do this to my 2010, hopefully it's as affordable for me as it was for you. Cheers fellow Honda brother, you win KZbin today with this video!

[@battosaijenkins946]

Heh so awesome. Couple weeks ago I just replaced my 5 speed with a k20z3 Si transmission for the first time by myself, and afterwards was covered in bruises from dropping the subframe, dropping the old tranny, installing a new flywheel + friction disc + pressure plate setup, then getting everything back together again... I loved it!! 👏👏

[@akupehsluarketatAR]

I use to own a GE6 and GE8. A GE with a K20 or 24 swap has always been my wish. Probably the best combination in my opinion

[@paul5683]

The second generation honda fit is the best, it's got the most cup holders. 😊 Love your build, really cool .

[@lordbeezy1349]

no refresh mode but it’s all good. would’ve been so good..

[@wutangpaul]

I watch a lot of car videos man, but things like K swaps into things like a Fit are just mind blowing to me. I wish I had your skill. Big respect from Ireland.

[@FernandoSosaIndustries]

As a fellow Fit owner, fantastic video and editing… it was an awesome watch!

[@CasterTown]

Nice build. Right off the bat this triggered my hatred for rev-hang though. You're already running flashpro... I would disable rev-hang ASAP. I hate how lethargic these engines sound while still stuck on the factory settings for decel throttle-opening, fuel cut delay, etc... These engines have the ability to feel sharp and alive with the correct settings. Get that dialed in and then start hitting some crisp rev-matches. You'll love it 10x more.

[@BETTALIFE101]

Rev hang is good.

I am so very envious of your build! Great work! The gen 2 fit is beautiful. I currently drive a '02 EP3 with the K20A2 and 6 speed swapped in from an 03 RSX Type S. It makes me want to start over and work towards something like this. Thank you for the video, I really enjoyed watching it.

[@capster15]

I know we don't know each other but I just want to say I'm proud of you, bro. You built what you said you wanted to build. I hope I can follow the same footsteps 1 day and doing the same thing. But shit is so expensive in cali!

[@sable_06]

I love this whole video, from the details about the swap, the swap itself and the fit, and the beautiful ending with the car meet

[@HondaStreetGarage]

Thank you!

[@EliahHoliday]

Was curious about the engine weight difference between original motor and the heavier swap K24 and how it affects the car.

[@letadagiancarlo6187]

Just got my first Honda Car, a Honda Civic FB, and this pop right into my suggested videos. Your build gives me chills to the bones and the pops and bangs ignits my spirit. Thanks for the knowledge.

[@MatthewTaylor3]

@10:31 Call over two strong friends to simply lift the front end up off the jack stands, you slide the engine, then they lower back onto the jackstands. The front end is surprisingly light without the engine, transmission and subframe.

[@1down5ups]

i love how you can just mix and match components on hondas. great work bro!!!!!!

Just Epic also that you go pick up the k series with the fit ( for me jazz) perfect daily working horse

Incredible upload Mark! A lot of work went into this video upload. The swap, editing, chasing down parts, custom made parts. Most detailed and informative Fit k24 swap on youtube to date. Loved every minute of the show. Thank you.

What a great build. I wish Honda would’ve made an Si variant. Imagine how awesome that would’ve been.

[@MatthewTaylor3]

I believe the most Honda would have done would be a 1.8L DOHC in the Fit from factory. Honda would want to stick to the overall nimbleness and daily practicality of the fit while keeping costs down. We can only continue to dream.

[@213SAPPER]

Very Nice Job, I still have both my One Off JDM GD3s. One is still Kseries Swap Turbo that was all custom parts back in 06-07, and my other is my Js Racing T1R L15 Turbo GD3 Fit with Bisimotos one-off stuff back in 07. OG Owner and will never let go off them. So much fun. Gorgeous GE8 and VLOG. 🙏🏻👍

This process is very impressive! I haven't seen enough videos where typical garage tools are used for the entire process.

That's fuckin sick! Watching your clip at 26:09 I estimate you ran 0-60 in 5.2-5.5 seconds which is way better than the 9 seconds it came with the L15A, K24 power!! The real Fit Type R

[@AthenaSaints]

36:00 So every time you want to check engine oil or fill the oil, you may have to remove the windshield wipers, windshield wiper motor, hood hinge covers, plastic and metal cowling.

[@ericwanyonyi2445]

Yah looks like a challenge.

[@thaithammavongsa]

I think the dipstick is flexible enough to use. As far as filling the oil, just as long as you can take the cap off you can just use a flexible funnel to fill.

[@A.QPerformance]

wtach for shifter cables hitting exhaust and melting. i had to trim shifter cable hole wider so that angel of passing is not steep and put plenty of heat padding over them where they are near exhaust. great job on that exhaust. i know there is not much space under Fit and a lot 90 bends. cehck out my build on k24 Fit turbo, we had to shift entire radiator frame 2" forrwad and a lot more to fit Intercooler

[@BagofRust]
