I am calling the K20Z3 the better all round performer because I find it to have an entirely sufficient amount of torque for regular street use, while having a noticeably more responsive high end. It is an engine that I can thoroughly enjoy both on and off the street, and that makes it an all round performer.
The K24, on the other hand, feels quite a bit lazier at the high end. As such, I would only consider it to be a superior engine for street use.
Another reason I recommended the K20 Civic Si is because of price. At the very least, it is something that should be considered if threezero is looking at a K24 Civic Si.

to clarify. the car is for my gf not for me. I already have enough civics :badpokerface:
first impression is that is very very smooth, even smoother than my frs but the ivtec on this thing has got to be the most underwhelming vtec ever. the 6 speed shifter. wow its so good. Interior good, got all the tech that my girl cares about.
I think she is pretty set on the car already, a very good daily manual car for her. Honestly she doesn't care what engine is in the car. Don't anticipate to do much to the car as it is hers. Is K20 the 8th generation? I assume the k24 is the 9th generation?
I don't know my honda outside of my b series lolol.
Just want to verify whether she is getting it at a good price. 20g, 11k km on the odometer. Everything is mint, previous car owner must be a car guy comes with uninstall eibach spring and pre install red type R Honda badge |
