Awesome vid Scott 👍🏾
Do one on F20C!
Please tear down a VW 1.8T 20v I would very much appreciate it. Thanks from the USA.
Whilst its a bit more obscure... or not obscure but less common to tune... could you look at the k20A3. Economy vtec but i wonder if it would take well to a remap?
Also interested to see how it runs as a 12 valve.
Nice video, It would be nice to see a 3SGTE go through that process
The K series is the LS engine of the 4 cylinder world
Exactly what I tell people too lol
The K series is the LT engine of the 4 cylinder world.
The LS engine is the k series of the 8 cylinder world
John Mitchell I meant as far as swapping it and making power. By no means are they similar in anyway.
only in the aspect of swaps !
Two of many reasons why I love Honda’s so much: 1 I’m a full time mechanic for over 20 years and work on everything from golf carts to fire engines and 2: I purchased my 2002 Acura RSX Type S brand new and still driving it daily now with 455,000 miles, original water pump, oil pump, good compression and no engine lights, synthetic oil changes every 3k and valve only two adjustments needed, yet it still runs like a champ and no I’ve never ever babied it when driving it but strict with maintaining it, Honda is the power of dreams with no doubt
I own a 04 ep3 with rsx s
type s motor 6 speed I boosted mine with hondata And I never put in a tune and she ran fine to about 10 t0 12 psi. Afrs look decent. It's hard to blow up stock setups. She loves boost.
Since you're a mechanic, can you tune & modify cars for extra performance by boosting the hp?
@@Mohapi_Tau boost = mo powa !!
I'm a garage hacker. My ef is cut up with a ep3 front end shoved in the back. Here I come rwd
@@Mohapi_Tau sorry thought u was talking to me my mistake
Honda has always been about engineering details in their engines. I don't get why they receive so much hate. They are great. Ever since the S600s with the roller bearing cranks.
civics with fart cans are where the hate comes from.
haters will always find a reason to hate
@@poptartmcjelly7054 you're definitely right about that one and its usually done by enthusiasts that either can't afford the correct mods or they're that certain crowd of guys we all hear about.
I can tell you why....when your big V8 loses to a little SOHC Honda..you HATE it...
Sadly idiot civic drivers give them a bad name. Now I have a civic have the 1.4 D14 that's the one that gives hondas a bad rep. Because people stick a stupid intake on it and a fat exhaust but the engine (from stock) won't benefit from those mods. So it sounds crap performs crap but the drivers think it's fast
The dislike are from people who lost a race to a Honda...badly😂
LOL - either that or they don't like tall, handsome presenters.
i lost a race to a new honda civic sedan, it was quite fast for a stock car 😨
I have Honda d16 turbo. Cheap to upgrade to 500 hp and very fast and fun. Sorry Honda haters us Honda drivers will wave on the way past if we're not on boost 👍
haha. And to boot, the new accord is faster than the new Camry, even though the Yota has about 50 more HP. Humm. Stupid Atkinson cycle.
Oh are you sure?
When Engineers win over Accountants!!
It's a rare and wonderful occurrence.
Very sad when you're designing something and then told, "no sorry, need to make it work without that" 😔
many of these k20's are cheaper to produce than their predecessors.
It won over mclaren so it can do it again at any time 🤣
The accountants were racing enthusiasts too lmao
And then budget goes bankrupt and back to shit cars lol
"Stock longblocks holds upwards of nearly 400HP at the wheels"
Hold my beer.
Can't a stock K24A2/A3 hold something close to 600hp? (@ the crank of course)
@@filipprucnal Yes
400hp in Australia is 600 hp in the states. 😆
Down under they only know 400hp... lol
HUMBLE PERFORMANCE MADE OVER 600 BHP in a stock piston rods k24. I'm pretty sure they made close to 700 on one car
"Without racing, there is no Honda."
-Soichiro Honda.
Edit: this show is amazing! I think I just got a college degree in Honda K- series engines. Their engineering is mind blowing. Thank you so much!
Edit2: pull apart a Subaru boxer engine next!
All I could think about was Jesus those intake ports are massive.
😂😂😂
Intake ports the size of my asscrack that can suck more air than my exhaust can in terms of back pressure😂
And that is why they love boost so much
As stock, it's 295 cfm per port on the original ones (2.0L RBC head) and 300 cfm on the revised ones (2.0L RSP head). :D Around 280-285 cfm on the Accord Euro / TSX cylinder head intake ports IIRC.
Makes me feel even better about my Accord Touring 2.0. Read last week from JD Powers that Honda engines in general have less than half the failure rate than their next closest rival. Pretty sick.
Its different with turbo charged engines, puts more strain on the engine
I just purchased my first Civic SI and it has a K series engine. I had no idea these were engineered like that. It blew my mind.
Careful with that understeer bud. The LSD is great if you have a good suspension setup to back it up. I crashed for pushing too hard and under steering into a ditch 😂
Damn, there really is a ton of genius wrapped into those. Makes me want to play with one.
I remember you initially being the shy Haltech/tuner guy from MCM years ago 😁. The company has come so far and is killing it. I would say you guys even pioneered mainstream stand alone ECU culture but the just my 2 cents. Haltech is seriously up there with the 800lb gorillas like Motech, AEM, Holly, etc.) Thanks for staying humble.
Thanks for the kind words! Pioneering is what we always aim to do. In fact, this may surprise you, but Haltech was actually the first in the world to make a real time programmable stand alone ECU. Almost 35 years ago!
@@haltech 35 years danggg...I'd bet these guys know what DOS is lol....only because I don't know what existed before that. Haha
Finally solid information on these engines without hating or some Honda crap meme jokes. I don't understand all the hate from the sheep. Thanks
I think there just memes and jokes. I find it funny but also think Honda engineering is amazing.
I think the haters are just annoyed that a manufacturer managed to produce an engine that combines everything - huge tuning potential, simple construction, doesn't leak, and it's unkillable. I bought an 05 Accord Euro Luxury Sport about 10 months ago. The thing is 15 yrs old, but still feels like a new car. No rattles, no squeaks. 147kW, one of the best 6spd manual boxes you can get, and double wishbone suspension on all four corners. I've paid $5k for a car that beats so many other cars hands down. This is one car that I can't see myself ever selling.
Donut Media also has a great video of Honda.
Donut Media maked their video very playful but 0 hate, which is amazing.
Have driven 3 civics in my life, and never regret having em.
Now i have a CRZ, i will always buy a Honda, reliable, fun and great to drive.
I respect everyone's choice, but yeah, i also had ALOT of haters on me.
Oh well, they are just jelous i drive reliable ;)
I've always been diehard a B series guy but the K is a pretty robust piece of engineering. Still prefer the B due to simplicity but the K literally stands for King
I own a b18c-r and I prefer it for the sound of the crossover, but fuck a k series makes power so easily its retarded
Likewise; built (all motor) B18C5 here, and I know I'd benefit in numbers from a K. However, each time I hear the sound of my setup and feel the need to rev it out, I think "Nah lol." Plus simplicity.
To anyone else I'd recommend a K, however I'll be a hypocrite and stick with a B until there aren't ICEs on the road any longer.
@@hybrid.but.human.official don't ever sell it, I think b series will be classics
And the B stands for Bitch lol jk jk 😂 I love the bitch too
Everybody in the honda mod groups praise the B series!!! One day I'll be gettin one as a project
Now I know why my well maintained K-24 equipped CR-V with 160,000 miles feels like it is at the break-in point. The engine burns no oil, has plenty of power, starts instantly, and is quiet and smooth.
His face :0 when he was looking at the crankshaft like his most loved child! love it
I'm so happy to see honda 4 bangers finally recognized by the muscle crowd
Objectively better "pound for pound" engine.
@@PeaceManBro by far just look at horsepower per liter most NA v8s aren’t even close in terms of that
I love my 02 RSX Type-S. Honda for life!
Yes sir.
Yes sir.
They also use a k serie for their 115, 135 and 150 outboard engines. These engines are really bulletproof and very easy to do maintenance on.
@@dadigitechman Not in particularly large numbers, and a K-swapped plane is going to be considered an experimental. There are also LS swapped and Yamaha swapped planes in a similar situation. All fantastic, but niche and legally restricted.
The most successful auto engine for airplanes is a Mercedes V6 diesel, which is offered as stock in Diamond brand airplanes. There's nothing wrong with car engines, except that the aviation world is RIDICULOUSLY conservative and it costs unholy amounts of money to certify an engine for a tiny market. Even a small company like Mazda moves more engines in a month than the entire general aviation industry does in a year. It's just not worth any company's time. Diamond went through certification on the Mercedes engine (originally rebranded as Thielert and now Austro) because they wanted their million-dollar airplanes to be ridiculously efficient. They achieved that with the Mercedes diesel, but it came very close to sending Diamond to the shadow realm.
Most of the time it makes more sense to just use the old 1930s-tech airplane engines that got certified back when aviators weren't all golf-playing lawyers. They work, they're light, and if Ferrari prices for VW Bug tech bother you, then maybe you're too much of a poor-people for aviation.
IMO we'd all be better off throwing the lawyers out of helicopters and putting K24s into the planes.
Viking Engines is starting to get a fair number in airplanes.
Every time he said ‘K series’, Siri came up
That's just Siri being jealous, don't worry. ;)
Thanks Scot brilliant explanation of a K series Honda engine. See so many of them on You tube video great to see a full pull down. Haltech Let Scotty done a K Series build
An mr2 with a k series verse an Aurion 2GR swap. Or them swapped into an 86/BRZ.
Or just convince Moog into K swapping his now 180sx... ?
@@thricethestrhes I want to put one in a mk 1 or 2 escort. Look at one in motorhood NZ for idea
Hahaha, that’s funny as!!
@@1PADRAIG YES!! DO IT!! It would be SICK if you can make your build an AWD too!! Check out PFISpeed on YT. They do alot of K swaps
This video is so insightful! Knowing more about my engine on my stock tsx makes me appreciate it more !
Thank you! I have a 2009 Honda CR-V with a K24Z1 engine and never understood exactly what the "Intelligent-Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control i-VTEC" was or what it did. Your showing the separate rocker-arm components at 15:45 made it clear. That is a clever design. I keep up with routine maintenance on my CR-V and it has always paid me back with absolute reliability. Honda builds excellent cars. :)
You don't know how many UA-cam videos I went through before I found this one. Awesome video fully explains my awesome iVtec engine. Thank you so very much! Brilliant!
Dear Honda: Find some bloody excuse to make an i6 3 to 3.2L version of this engine. And keep producing it as crate engines once everything goes electric. That would, in time, be remembered even more fondly than the 2JZ.
Dear Haltech: Just keep 'em coming! I would however like to request that you equip Scotty with a swim suit assistant to hand him tools, dab oil smudges off his face and other essential tasks. It would certainly improve his presenting efficiency with many percent!
Sounds to us like you're volunteering for that swimsuit assistant position?
Scuba Steve for the win 🤣
I'm sure someone else could copy+paste a billet i6 K32.
@@rhangman8284 and how many would buy that, and you can't just make it longer, you need a new crank shaft, and due to it being longer it will flex more so you need more main bearings. That's why i6s has like 7 or 8 mains but i4s has like 4 or 5.
@@haltech Hell yeah! Neck beard and swimsuit is so going to be the new black!
Really respecting these engines more and more.
This is the best tear down video I’ve ever seen. You’ve explained everything as easily digestible as possible. Very good work!
I remember building some B16's back in the day and some of the work that had to be done and aftermarket parts added to make them hold lots of power. It makes me happy to see that Honda engineered some of those improvements right into the K series.
I didn't even know this "What's so special about" series was a thing, but I absolutely love it.
Thanks for both the history lesson and the detailed teardown!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Tuning Fork!Never thought you were going to love a Honda motor so much!!!
Not only did this video school me on honda, but I learned so much about engine layout. Thank you
I'm glad I have a k series after watching this👍🏻
Thanks Scot for an amazing video. It’s actually really nice to see you get so excited over what most see as just another humble Honda engine. There is just something about the K series for me that no other engine can replace. It’s like a bit of an underdog hero. I cannot actually see a time when I won’t own n EP3 or at least something with a K20 in it.
Oh and I love the idea of you doing a turbo K20 project. Maybe you could get the mighty car mods guys in on it as well.
It’s neat to note that the first person to propose using an engine brace in a Honda was the CEO and mastermind of Spoon Racing. He uses one on the famous 11K RPM B16.
I love this type of video. Doing a deep dive on stuff like this is so educational and I love it.
This guy is really knowledgeable, he even knows the history of the Honda engine and presentation is flawless .. I'd say this is one the best and most interesting video on Honda's engine. Thanks so much for this video, thumbs up!
Awesome video as always, such amazing engines when you consider where you find them. I'd also like to add, that we are still waiting for the SR20DET techically speaking video.
You forgot to mention that the massive oil pump assembly houses the counter-rotating balancing shafts that reduce the second-order vibrations of in-line 4-bangers. Truly an ingenious design to keep the engine block simple and robust. Simply a beautiful bulletproof engine!
No way, it's Ivan in the wild, how many accord have you fix? 😛
Awesome video man, really love the way you explain each part in detail
please keep the k content going, love to see what you can do with the right factory components. thats whats beautiful about it!
3 or 4 times you were so enamored with the designs I thought you might give it a kiss lol
😚
very nice! was hooked from start to finish especially when the engine was torn apart and the bits and pieces were explained! kind of nice to hear one for 4A-GE (black top maybe?) thanks!
Just got into the K series engine since i got a civi si . Man , blow away by the way this engine looks inside. Magnificent, massive brace system top and bottom.
Always a great job Scott. Well thought out and enjoyable to watch, while learning a lot. Thanks.
The best engine engineering I've seen is the innards of a 70's 2 valve Jawa Eso speedway bike. The finish everywhere is immaculate. Every thing is polished and matched.
Do a K20A from euro R and type R teardowns :) you'll see extra surprises again. And by the way the K24A oil pump is a balancing shaft as well. All built in.
These are so perfectly done and so educational. Thanks guys!
Noce job Scott explaining everything.
I have enjoyed listening to your knowledge on MCM, and now Haltech channel.
Give this dude a raise!!
Staring at a Honda engine's bare bottom end is actually quite the experience. Beautiful craftsmanship and design.
It's like the polar opposite of watching a EA888 being torn down. Elegant engineering (Honda) vs how the hell did they make that so overcomplicated (VW)! :)
Amazing explanation of i-VTEC!! Fantastic information all around!
One of my favourite car youtube hosts/personalities. Takes these videos from a 9/10 to a 10/10
Amazing video, you my man are a legend. I remember when I used to see you tuning might mods cars now you've got this sick channel keep it up.
That's the oil pump with balancer which was used on the K24 & certain derivatives of the K20 (that's why it is such a beast of an assembly). Most performance builds delete the balancer assembly. Some use a modified version of the pump used on the F20 engine if it is a super high rev build. They are a nice bit of kit, amazing they made money selling them!
best video on K engines I've found. thank you!
I’m thankful that I found this video. Absolutely amazing! Great job.
Very nice video and explanations, worth subscribing for. Many thanks!
Best strip-down video, I’ve seen yet. I love Honda’s. I run an FK8 and daily a Honda FIT RS. Very clean power and reliable. What impressed me about your video is that you took a little bit longer, which is risky on UA-cam, to explain things. You never lost me! I’m biased though and with great reason. I’ll share your video in my Type R playlist and some of my Honda groups that I frequent with tales of street racing and mods.
Thanks for the heart mark and thumbs. If you are interested in seeing my FK8 build, have a look at my YT channel SpinRush_C1. I have made some videos on my HKS Technical Factory build.
It's the british accent that kept you listening.. lol
As a mechanic of nearly 25 years who has worked for GM, Ford, Toyota, and now Honda for the last 15 years, I have long argued that the Honda 2.4L I4 (especially the K24) is the best made I4 in the history of the automobile world.
If maintained this motor will never brake down. I have seen Accord's come in with this motor having 300 and even 400,000 miles and tell me they've only ever changed the oil and done regular maintenance.
It is an absolute shame Honda abandoned this power train and went with the horrific 1.5L turbo. In my 15 years at Honda I have never seen so many issues with a motor and they're not getting better. When you see more new cars with the 1.5L than old cars then you know you have made a dud.
I cannot recommend the 1.5L to anyone. I will recommend the 2.0L turbo though. That motor is much more robust and does not have the same issues.
With that said, you cannot beat the 2.4L nor the 3.5L V6. They are simply the best.
I'm getting a 23 odyssey and can't wait to upgrade to v6 from my 18 crv (no issues with the 1.5L aside from a little oil dilution)
Yeah snake. Looking at civic si. Are the o6 to 12 good. Love manual transmissions. Need some feedback. Thanks.
@@jeffcollier8780 06-11 have the best k20 we got in America, same with the RSX type s but the civic Si has a LSD
Great presentation Scott!! You really took the time to describe it to the details. As an engine suggestion I would ask for the EJ20. Great work!!
The lava lamp’s got some great flow back there 🌋
I intend to put a k20-a2 in my old civic. This has made me want to do it even more. Sure hondas get a bad rep but when done right they are amazing.
A k swap in any light weight chassis is an instant win, ef, crx, eg, ek, mx5, lotus Elise.
Honda’s get a bad rep from people that don’t understand engines.
I wish mine had that. I got stuck with the K20A3
Great show! Always like the gentle giant and the way he presents.
I would greatly appreciate a video like this on the 3UZFE
Great engine design and way ahead of it's time and today. The ribbed block also contributed to rigidity. Oil jets were also introduced to lubricate and cool the pistons. Coolant jacket also kept the cylinders nice and cool. The VTEC VTC system had four different valve timing modes for engine performance: idle, low rpm economy, low rpm torque, and VTEC high rpm torque. The FD2 Type R K20A was extraordinary for a factory performance engine with racing upgrades on almost every component: pistons, rods, porting of manifold + ports, flywheel, oil pump, exhaust header, etc.
Hoonigan plug there... This is a great motor! Haltech ecu all the way for engine management. Keep kickin as guys!
Love my 05' TSX. Great engine, not fast by any means, but very smooth, predictable and reliable
My 06 tsx is quick but not fast lol.
Yep 08 typeS here. Unbelievably smooth engine.
GFs 04 TSX had 390,000KM when it spun a rod because of oil starvation. Otherwise it was still running strong. Just got her a 11’ Si and she LOVES IT! AMazing little car!
Every time you said K-series, my phone wanted you to finish asking a question. Great video too!
Awesome vid, explaining the K-series platform!!!
I can see why Honda is so great because of they keep on putting R&D into their products. Great job and explaining Haltech. Thank you.
B230F! Volvo FTW! Hahaha love the videos, :)
Excellent video, i am a proud k24a3 owner,reflashed and 421 headered by littlebo, amazing engine, outruns most of the 2 3 liter engines found on similar saloons
Awesome video. Nice tear down of a kseries. I've been schooled. Thankyou
All though I am Vipec guy,I love your videos!
Love your video it was very knowledgeable and helpful I hope to see more I would love to see Nissans twin cam 24 valve engine if you can do that that would be nice
Great content man seriously, very thorough 👌
Fantastic Scott! Now I know why everyone is raving about these engines! I would love to see you do a breakdown of the legendary 4age please 😃
This video made me a proud owner of my 06 TSX
Well done video... One omission: You neglected to mention that the neatly designed oil pump assembly also incorporates the balance shafts, using the same drive, all in one compact module.
I noticed that. Another thing of note is the integrated steel / iron supports located in the underside of each of the main bearing caps. They can be identified by the darker colour than the rest of the bearing cap assembly at 27:45
Awesome 👍 perfect amount of info at the right pace. Much appreciated 😊
Wow what an awesome video. I just stumbled across this today, three years later as I was exploring videos related to my recently acquired 2005 CR-V. In the "really picky" department, a Woodruff key is crescent-shaped. The Honda crankshaft front pulley uses just a standard rectangular "machine key."
That is a balance shaft assembly. Oil pump is there too but most of that is the balance shaft assembly.
Yes. FasterProms with Brent on their smart car included swapping to a type S (I believe) oil pump to remove the balance shaft rotating weight.
Yea he should have mentioned that’s the K24 pump and it’s mainly for comfort and smooth operation while the s type pump is better for performance and higher RPMs.
@@Dmanpeterson He didn't mention the balance shafts but he did say repeatedly that it's a k24.
To be honest, it sounded like the fork didn't recognise the balance shaft assembly and just call the whole unit oil pump.
Dark Ra true. Good quick video regardless. Surprised that is had a build head and stock oil pump honestly.
Toyota 1fz-fe
Always wanted to see what power can be produced from the big lump of an engine, that spends its days moving masses of weight around 🤞
this guy knows what he's talking about. i watched this guy grow since the beginning. he's appeared on mcm and is the master of haltech systems. i watched his career grow on youtube. this guy is a legend
SCOTT, VERY NICE EXPLANATION OF ALL SYSTEMS...I LEARNED A LOT ! I LOVED THE
MASSIVE CRANKSHAFT GIRDLE. ALSO, I WONDERED HOW THEY SWITCH TO THE DIFFERENT
CAMSHAFT PROFILES. THE ROLLER CAM FOLLOWERS WERE SIMPLE AND LIGHT TOO.
Just had to jump in here to make my first comment to thank you for the Honda love. It's been evident to me in the past decade+ that there has been a lot of pop shots directed at Hondas by the internet forum community (including that other UA-cam channel that mod cars mightily) that Honda sucks this, Honda sucks that, and I see it actually deceiving or misleading the younger generation that are newly getting into the car enthusiast scene. With videos like this and your passion showing in presenting it, I hope the younger crowd get a little more educated and are properly guided in the right directions. Thank you.
Success brings hate.
The K201Z is my favorite engine. N54 is a close second.
I am 5,5 years now with my 2001 Stream k20a engine. Totally in love with it...
Great video Scotty! I have a k20z1 in my 06 RSX type s. Not the fastest engine but definitely a tonne of fun to drive!
K is King..greeting from Malaysia..✌
I'd love to see some explanations of the inner workings of an EZ30R by Subaru, the dark horse of subaru. They have some great tech inside them, and some good potential being shown as a few more people are starting to turbocharge stock motors (like myself), as well as build some pretty strong ones with upgraded internals!
This was just fantastic.... seriously, great vid ;)
Great video. Thank you for your knowledge
You should definitely do a K-swap! Do it on some 90s Japanese nugget.
"Vtec mini with mighty car mods"
I wonder if the overly sturdy construction of especially the bottom end is the result of Honda coming from sports bikes and a long history of formula sport, where the engine is used as a stressed member (gearbox and rear end hanging of it).
Definitely. I know honda supplies K series engines for f3 americas
Loved this video..great channel thankyou
i know all about this stuff already but still watched it. i can still remember my tuner/mechanic was hella geeking out the first time we disassemble a K motor at the shop shouting that this is the shit right here! he is still inlove with the engine. lol. that was 15 or more years ago. man! time flies!
This makes doughnut media’s over the top annoying videos look like the crap they are. Perfect vid mate
Omg yes. Donut media are unwatchable.
Donut media is annoying af
Americans would prefer donut. Vs this might be more European
@@MISTER__OWL the guys accent is australian
@@dalton-at-work I still believe that people Europeans would still prefer this channel.
How about the GM 3.8 litre series II V6, it's a great little engine. Thanks, Scott, love ya' on MCM!
Excellent engines as well!!
Great content and well presented, thoroughly enjoy watching these.
It would be nice to see a tear down of a b234 from a Saab 9000, but then they are not that common down under.
Great video Scott thanks for sharing how great the Honda K-Series engine is! 💪💪
