87 crx si to k24a4acme1 09-06-2008, 02:55 AM I have a 87 si that I have already swapped out the stock engine to a d16a1 out of a 87 teg. The car runs great but I just had a 03 accord with major rear end damage dropped in my lap. The engine is a k24a4-1. Is it worth it to do the swap or should I just sell the engine? The accord still runs fine and is a complete donor car minus the rear end damage. I have no interest in fixing the accord so tell me what you think. Thanks in advance for any interest in my post. mattnjami 09-06-2008, 03:01 AM i would take the engine out and sell it on ebay or put it up somewher someone will want it somewhere thas a good engine. acme1 09-21-2008, 05:06 PM I understand that I can get $ for the engine but I am just wondering if this swap is possible and what problems I might have along the way. Figori 10-20-2008, 06:35 PM You could take the CRX, cut the nose off of it and weld the accord nose to it.... That's going to be the easiest way, honestly. :( I hate to break it to you. Christ 11-03-2008, 11:50 PM Just to reinforce the idea in your head: K24A4 engine + 84-87 CRX = "bang, crash, cut, chop, weld, destroy, rebuild, drive, hit bump, wreck, DIE." The K-series engine barely fits in a 88-91 CRX or Civic... they have HUGE engine compartments compared to the 84-87. You'd be better off selling this engine for $2000 and building a B16. You'd still have a decent all around racer, and it wouldn't seriously offset your car's balance. 1gcvcb18 12-19-2008, 06:56 PM You can mount it, it has been done before. Check redpepperracing.com there is an aussie member with one. lxndr 01-02-2009, 11:12 AM ^^^^^yep, it's been done. Alot of custom fabrication since there is no kit for this swap. As mentioned above, check RPR for more info. 1gcvcb18 01-02-2009, 02:42 PM http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=24296&hl=k20a Look here for pics vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
