k20 powa in a nsx?


tats odd lol

[tofu1413]

well for sure the K series has way more aftermarket support / bigger tuning potential than the original C30/C32 motors..

kinda ballsy to do a swap like this actually

i like it, bookmark'd

[Leopold Stotch]

pretty cool build.

[CC2]

**subscribing to this thread**

[shenmecar]

Squeezing 700hp from a K20?!?!?

[Peturbo]

Very interesting. Awesome build.
I found it funny that for a guy that knows as much about hondas as he does, he didn't even know how to spell "V-tec"
if you have the k20z3 type - s 6-speed I-Vtech... your in good shape.

The k20 comes in many shapes and sizes... some with v-tech on only one cam...

The k20a2 / k20z1 / and k20z3 are really the only ones worth a shit...

When Honda launched the b-series... you could put a vtech head on any b-series motor handa made...

The k20a3 had clearence issues (accord/civic/crv)

the k20z3 is a HUGE motor to have laying around....

It's VTEC, not V-tec, nor is it V-tech the phone I use at my home.

Toyota also replaced the 2JZ with the 3SGTE for use in the Japanese Super GT/JGTC Supras as well.

Then toward the end of its life I believe Supra also had V8s before being transplanted into the SC430.

Some interesting things about JGTC/SuperGT,

-The last ever race of the legendary McLaren F1 GT-R were the 2005 Team Take One/ Hitotsuyama Racing machines
-GT300 Impreza was the only 4WD car in all of JGTC/Super GT
-GT300 Legacy B4 is Front Engine/RWD + Turbo Boxer 4
-GT300 Celica was Front Engine/RWD
-GT300 IS350 is Mid Engine/RWD
-GT300 Corolla Axio is Mid Engine/RWD
-GT500 GT-R (R35) is using a 3.4L V8 (2009 was 4.5L V8)
-GT500 NSX used a 3.5L V6 making over 500PS
-GT500 HSV-010 is using a 3.4L V8 from Formula Nippon
-GT300 Mooncraft Shiden doesn't have a road car counterpart (It is a modified and rebranded Riley Technologies Daytona Prototype)
-GT500 machines can generate twice its own weight in downforce at around 200km/h
-Lamborghini Murciélago's first ever win in history was in GT300
McLaren F1 GT-R is still the only non Japanese car to win in GT500
GT500 are one of the fastest GT car in the world (2004 FIA GT-1 winner Team Goh Maserati MC12 Corsa falls behind 1-2 seconds every lap)
-Super GT accept entry of race cars from other series (DTM, FIA GT)
-GT300 machines are roughly the equivalent of GT-1
-When (racecar-engineering.com) asked Dome’s Hiroshi Yuchi whether the Dome-Honda NSX GT500 cars could lap faster than an Aston Martin DBR9 or a Corvetter C6-R his response was simple “easy”.
-There are plans to consolidate GranAM, DTM, and Super GT into a single series with unified regulations starting in 2012 and fully unite in 2015.
-In total over 18 manufacturers fielding over 24 different models of cars.
-In total there are 6 tire manufacturers
-Teams are allowed to swap any engines as long as it is made by the same manufacturer of the car.

Oh crap, his mistake got to me too. :o

^
k24's increase displacement which works well on drag strips... the torque and drivability decrease along with the redline capacity
