- Civic EK K Swap Mount Kits Explained: EKK1, EKK3, EKK6 and EKK1AWD
By Brian Gillespie and Aaron Gaghagen
A K swap into a Civic 6th gen is a no-brainer. It's pretty much a bolt-in affair with the available aftermarket support for the car. There are things that you must get right to get the swap to mount correctly the first time. Brian walks us through all the differences between the main 4 swap mount kits of the EK Civic from Hasport Performance. You know, his day job!

cant wait till I get all the parts lined up and can start wrenching
In this channel, I have learned a lot of information about kswap. I'm also starting my kswap project now!
this is definitely very informative. Ive got an 95 lx sedan thats in pretty nice shape and ive been wanting to put something a little meaner in it.
i was under the impression that there would be a lot more fab work involved with the subframe and original mounting holes but apparently its much easier then i expected.
Good stuff my man!
I don't have IG but I'll tell the homies and hopefully one wins these mounts
Vtec academy??? 😭 let’s goooo 📚 📚
Totally surprised your channel is not already at 100k subscribers shoot you need 500k.
It is now 🎉
I could watch these videos all day!!!!! The content is always awesome!!!!! 🤟🏽
We appreciate that!
I’d be down to drop mine off and have these guys go crazy w another k swap for my humble Ek.
Hey what's good love what you guys do can you please make a video of a gk5 fit/jazz k swap please help
I have a question, I have a 2012 Honda Accord i4 automatic with a K24Z2. I found a K24A2 RBB-1 complete cylinder head. How can I get this head to work on my K24z2 ? Do I need to change anything, crank sensor etc..? Thank you guys for all the amazing.
Long time no see Brian... Last time we talked was at that meet close to Ontario when u showcased your CRX Glass intake pipe. I'm still rocking your EKK1 MOUNTS that came with your hasport axles with DC sport package practically the FIRST mount kit available back in the day. Btw can you also explain the axle placement that the EKK1 MOUNTS that has an issue with and if there's a fix for it? Thanks for everything!!!!
Is it possible to cover the HASPORT LEAN mounts on EG/EJ chassis?
For the k24z3 engine, can a person use the k24z1 timing cover for standard crank sensor? Ive noticed that timing cover accepts the traditional crank sensor even though it's a k24z series. Which would be a junkyard option rather than custom order.
do u make any auto mounts for em2 civic putting an auto swap in an em2 /es1 need help thanks
Do you have any plans on shipping to your friends up north?
Clean
Will I have the same trans clearance issues running crv awd with an eg subfrme in my em1 coupe? Thanks for the vid btw.💯
No, you won’t have the same clearance issues.
Great 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
I would love the the AWD kit. If nobody jumps on it I may have to do a dual engine setup. B series AWD setup and a K series AWD setup :)
That would be crazy.
Hi thanks for knowledge. How are axels angles with ekk3 tsx motor and transmission? Incredible job you're doing
They point a little forward, but they are OK.
@@VTECAcademy Thanks for reply. So what would you recommend for Ek civic? Ekk2 mounts with eg subframe or stick to ek subframe and go with ekk3 mounts. Actually that's my last moment to decide before buying mounts 😅
Can I still use the ekk6 mount kit with stock ek subframe I’m using the k24z7 transmission out the 9th gen si?
How hard would it be to swap the crv engine transmission and awd into my 1990 civic lx sedan?
I just want a straight auto transmission swap.
Basically just a better civic, not really a hotrod.
Contemplating k24a with k20z3 transmission and head swap will the 8th gen si shift cables work ? Buying a 0 6 sonar si trying to do use all parts off it that I can thanks for any info looking for eg or integra sub frame are they the same? And what rack would I have to use? Have 2000 civic hatch looking to swap
I just bought a full k20z1 swap and I have a 98 ek hatch shell. Will I have axle issues using the ek subframe at 600ish whp?
Hi tha one fit k24a8 automatic transmission in ek sedan
Will you ever come out w factory bushing type for any swap mounts? Some of us are running naturally aspirated and would like some comfort vs hard urethane and vibration for daily driving
We are trying different formulas. We haven't found anything both durable and soft.
@@VTECAcademy thank you so much for replying!
Is there a space in the Hashtag??? Thank you for the amazing content!
No space in the hashtag. Remember it needs to be in a post so we can search it.
About mount L15B7 for ek
Will the K-swap mount kit you guys are making for the 1st gen CRX work in the 1st gen Integra? If not will there be a kit for the 1st gen integra? I feel like my car never gets any love from the after market lol. Would love to have the option to go K if I want to someday with a mount kit.
Yes it will
Hi im from south africa i have a right hand drive ek civic .. the engine is a k24a2 from a type s Honda Accord the gearbox is a 6speed from the Accord typeS , they sell the engine and gearbox as a combo here in south africa ..which engine mount kit do i buy from u guys ? I have installed the eg civic subframe already but not 100%sure which mountkit will work with the k24a2 6spd accord type s gearbox..i know its not ideal to run this gearbox but its all we have here the other gearboxes are very scares n extremely expensive n overpriced
Seeing as the 06-08 TSX trans case is magnesium, does that mean the Accord matching trans is made of magnesium also?
No it's aluminum.
What’s a ‘rabbit radiator’?
I’m confused of what you had to change the front subframe in order to get a k motor in a ek
What to change or why? Is there a word missing in your comment?
nice inf he'll yeah very informative also I know u do does mount for Da but I get confuse wish one I have to buy can u give me the right part number ?
b series but I have b18b bottom that's my confuse now the I swap for a new year model if its still the same ?
Was long as you use the DA block bracket and transmission.
When will you install Engine Mounts K Swap Accord 98 00
Some day. It's just a matter of time.
Does any of these kits fit the k20 euro R ? I heard the transmission case is bigger and also the mount.
Yes, EKK4 does. It is similar to the first gen TSX.
Ekk awd let's gooooo
That's spirit!
I have the EFKawd kit and didn’t modify anything on my wagon 🤷🏼♂️
We are waiting for you hotter than the embers
Hell yeah!
I have the EKK2 kit with a K24. Would I put the Side mount on the lower setting and the rear on the highest? To have hood clearance. Really confused.
Yes. The side mounts are on the engine and the rear mount is on the frame. That’s why you use lower hole on the side brackets and top hole on the rear.
@@VTECAcademy I want to lower my Civic now and noticed the oil pan is way too low. I was going to put the side mount on the higher setting to raise the engine, but for the rear, would I put it on the lower setting? Thank you for your help
Hello sir,just want to know can i use k24 cranksensor into k20a eng?as i know the wire code only need to change..did anything need to chnge if i use k24 cranksensor?
The connector and wire positions are different on some of the K24 Crank sensors. But they can be used.
I want them please
Hi sir from just wanna ask about my ek 2000 if i use subframe original i can install k24 motor
Yes. It will sit a little further forward with the stock subframe.
Здравствуйте, я живу в другой стране, отделающий нас океаном, можно было как ни будь платно получить чертеж на крепление, у самого ек3. Спасибо
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
K is the way!
I wonder how the ekk1awd mounts work for the CRV rd1 👀
We will have to try them in a car.
👍
What motor mounts options are available for 1986 civic rtawd wagon
Hasport hasn’t released a stock replacement mount kit for the third GEN civic yet.
@@VTECAcademy do you have a car to do mock up on?
@VTEC Academy I just realized that I asked one of the most ridiculous questions haha. I'm newer to hashtags. I thank you for the response. I've been looking into a swap for my 86 FWD Wagovan, and I'm leaning towards crv/AWD/k20 or 24 so I can make it a rally car. Are you guys going to start on the Rally Wagon Project? I'm the biggest rally fan and I believe more people nowadays are liking rally than ever before... Thanks again you guys. If you ever need any help or have questions about videography, let me know. That's what I do for a living and would absolutely love to help out. Cheers!
That one is dear to me too. I don't know when we will have time to start on it. Hopefully by summer's end.
@@VTECAcademy I live in Colorado, so mine is buried under snow at the moment. The weather is starting to warm up here in Steamboat though. So that's good. I'll be on the lookout for the build!
Im in need of some help. I have the ekk3 mounts but I don't know what axles to purchase. Can anyone help?
Hasport EKK axles.
Do you have a 6 Speed for a two thousand nine honda accord two point four
If you’re talking manual, that would be from a 2009-2014 TSX or 2012-2015 Civic Si. Not one for sale.
I'm gathering the parts for my swap in my 97 ej. I've got almost everything except mounts and a trans. 04 tsx k24a and 92-95 subframe. I'm not on instagram.🤬
Do you have for95 Honda Accord k24
Hasport is currently redesigning the mounts for CD Accord. They should be out soon.
I wanna get this kit for k24 with z3 trans but everyone says they destroy axels , is that true ?
I don't see why it would.
@@VTECAcademy people online have been saying to move to eg subframe because axle alignment but I dont know how true that is.
Is this the k24a2 motor with ekk1 mounts?
Yes
Did u change the subframe?
Not on these mount kits. EKK1, EKK3, use the stock subframe.
Where can I get dAt transmission mount for k24a4
sales@hasport.com
@@VTECAcademy hve a direct link to dAt exact part?
@@peegee6625 I don't. Individual mounts and basket are usually sold through email conversation to make suer you don't get the wrong part, or a part you can't use.
Can i change the Engine Brackets while the Engine is still in the Car? I have to Change my ekk1 to ekk2.
The left hand bracket is tricky, but yes.
@@VTECAcademy okay. Its pretty tight tight there right?
Have to push the Engine a little bit to the right i guess
@@jxelll6640 Yes.
Why do ppl complain about the axles having a weird angle w these kits
On the EKK1 kit the engine sits pretty far forward. That why Hasport also makes an EKK2 kit that uses the EG/DC2 subframe and lets you move the engine back, improving the axle angle.
@@VTECAcademy so changing the subframe to one from eg instead of the oem in ek would be the way to go?
Why people swap the subframe if this kit works?
I’ve heard of people having axle issues due to running ekk1’s not 100% sure on it tho. Been contemplating on going ekk1, cant decide as I don’t know how true those claims are.
@@SneakHeat23what kit did you end up going with? I have a 98 ek hatch and I just bought a full k20z1 swap last week.
