Hi guys I’ve been an avid classic mini guy since i was just 13 now at 47 and have the means I’ve just bought an Honda Civic Type R 2004 mint and I’m literally blown away with these V-TEC engines. I have watched a fair few of your videos but have to say this 1 got me glued to the screen, amazing work you guys do REAL CRAFTSMEN and a delight to watch thanks for sharing SCOOBS UK.
What a great transformation, John. I'm sure the owner is going to love his "new" car after all the LHT TLC you and George put into it. A lot of labor went into that wiring job and you can tell... looks awesome, guys! Have a great evening.🖐😎
YES YES YES THIS, this is what needs to be demonstrated on youtube more, good quality work, swaps in older 5th-6th gen chassis's with creature comforts. Every swap i've done in the past i've removed it, even on street only cars and its so stupid. Love this idea of a fast swap with ac also. Would be good to see if you can do an electric PS system in these cars with k series
Wow!... Simple Clean and Amazing as always, love the exhaust very low key... John, George, Esther your videos is what makes me get off the couch and work on my old EF Hatch, or else my Wife would of sold it by now... lol. 😂
I have a DSM that had fuel issues and my old lady wanted it gone. Finally found out it had varnish in the fuel rail from sitting from the last owner. Cleaned all that crap out with a new filter and she's running great. So I know how you feel.
Thet is the exact same swap I want to do to my 1999 civic coupe, automatic with single d16y8 engine. Can I get in touch with you guys to get a budget? Thanks for the excellent video as always
nice!. Have you considered doing a video on how you do AC in a K20 EK? Looks like you did custom lines. I just posted a video on how to install AC in a K20 EK using Hybrids kit but I admire the custom route you went. How much to fab me up a bracket like that for the condenser? lol. That is real nice.
@@phuhoang4678 whatever the kit from hybrid was (I forgot) plus about 250 bucks for the parts at junkyard and Amazon. (Get compressor, harness and hardliners from amazon and dryer, condenser from Amazon new).
Great Clean Work, like how you guys make sure everything is working correctly and looks nice. Detailed work and respect given. wish I lived in florida to get some work done with you.
alpha7ization : yeah i like them too, They are my favourite civic, 1996 to 2000, have bought and sold them many , now after almost 10 yrs I again intend buy one 😀
Nice! Most people take their AC out to save 40 lbs, but not for a daily driver as hot as it gets here in the South! I'm doing a B18 type R swap and also keeping the AC system! Plus the whole AC system in my 00 Civic EX was replaced before I bought it so why throw out new parts lol.
With this type of global warming it is a must that we stop driving automobiles unless absolutely necessary, and put an end to industry as we know it. All energy should be renewable, all manufacturing should be done with recycled components, and those who are blatantly wasteful should be imprisoned and have their assets redistributed.

I wanna keep my food down.
@@Bytrl Wow, over $9K and you did the labor? I guess my best bet is finding a K series swapped car. Obviously people have to be doing this cheaper right?
@@minni1094 oh for sure. Allot of people estimate a typical k swap at right around 5k. But that's a k20a2 or k24a2 swap, no ac, no power steering, they buy an ac/ps delete kit for $150 rather than spend the almost 1k I spent doing both properly, they run a stock ecu with an immobilizer rather than kpro, no fancy ground kit, maybe a stock rad and fan just moved to the driver side.. some people use cheap hoses that work, buy ebay mounts instead of hasports, you can definitely do it cheaper. I just wanted the best mounts, best k series motor out of the box, best ecu I could afford, reverse lockout functionality, power steering, and ac. That was my goal. My plan was to cheap out on everything else. But once u start putting it together, you realize you'd rather do it once and do it right, and have the reliability and comfort of a daily. Also, the cheaper u go, the harder it is to get together properly so you're happy with it. I know allot of people that pretend theyre happy with their swap cars being brutally harsh, loud, rattly, hot, hard to steer.. ha, fuck all that. If I'm gonna spend money, I'm not gonna regret it to look cool at a meet for how hardcore I am. I went for comfort, reliability, practicality, stealth. My car isnt slammed, it has a full interior, theres no rattles, no loud exhaust, everything works as it should. Like.. as good as these guys are, did the auto cluster not annoy you in the end? Yeah that shit doesnt fly for me. You dont need to spend 10k, but you really should to do it right, and will if you have ocd. But if you consider 10k + 2k for a decent ek to start with, is 12k total for a reliable, comfortable, practical, cheap to insure, easy to fix, cheap to maintain, unique, 12 second quarter mile car that also gets 30+ mpg.. when most people dont even blink to run out and finance or even worse lease a 30k vehicle when they only make 40k a year.. hah. It's a no brainer in my book. Plus you get to learn along the way, and that's invaluable.
With intake exhaust throttle body injectors only makes 16hp more? You guys need to rework ok that tune. That could easily make 240hp at the crankshaft.
@@LHTPerformance thanks for the reply but on the video it's not specific and can induce other viewers in error... so 216 at the wheels goes around 245+- at the crankshaft. So it's about the number I was estimating. Great build then. 👏
This not really a low budget build tho it cost u 2g for the motor already adding along those brand mods makes it a 5g-8g cost all in total cuz of tuning it too I’m just glad they are able to customize some parts save u 500 buck for one stupid shit this is coming from a owner that own also k series motor
and not change and subframe why?? and what CV Alxes used because I am having problems with that and I can not spend more money is taking it from the passenger side..
2g for motor 400 for intake manifold 450 for headers 150 for catalytic 200-300 for 5 spd swap 150 for fuel rail 100 for injector 200 for throttle body 400 for si blades rims 100 for s2k cmc 100-200 for shifter cable/bushing 300 for hasport motor mount 100-300 for full ac set up maybe 500-1000 for tranny depend on what tranny they get lsd or no lsd 500 for tune This is not a exact estimate but judging from the parts brand he use I had a idea how much it was due to me also having a k series motor so the number I m giving u is the closest to what it might cost if wrong plz lmk
Depends on what kind of engine and how cheap you’re will to go for. Cheap, at the lowest around 4-6 K and if you want like all the k-tuned stuff etc, you’re expecting around 7-9 k
Really good video. Doing a similar set up and was wondering if you guys ran into any problems leaving the ek subframe??? Everyone keeps telling me to change it to the eg subframe and run EKK2 mounts
In the last few months I think I’ve watched this video at least 6-7 times. Ball park how much would it cost for this exact same swap with ac? Ball park?
I purchased a Skunk2 composite fuel rail for my 8th Gen Civic but the inlet pipe on the rail hits the large vacuum line coming out of the manifold (don’t know what it’s call) because it curves down. I see you used different plumbing for the fuel line. Can you please tell me what plumbing and lines you used? I want to purchase them for my rail so i can install it the same way like yours. I really appreciate it.
good video and great video, im disabled and cant drive stick any more , i wanted to get a K24 swap with an auto in to my 00 integra but was told its not possible because of clearance issues :(
Would have been great if you went into detail on the wiring involved for the five speed conversion. I’m putting together similar swap on an automatic 97 Integra, I’m not that great with wiring schematics so I’m just gonna replace the whole Dash harness
It always shows when somebody loves their job. Do it right the first time.

You'er shop allways go's way be on allmost every shop. I cant wait to bring you my car just saving the money until then you guys rock
These are the kind of builds that I live for. The only thing missing from it is a Snorlax sticker!! Good Job Fellas.

Great video format. Ticks all the boxes. The car pretty nice, too ;)
Great job chaps! You make it look so easy nowadays! Greetings from the UK.
Nice conversion, and possibly built with more care and attention than the factory 😁
