THAAAAAAAANNNNNNK YOU!! I swear nobody cares about the 8th gen 2.4 Honda Accord I've been looking for a video like this for years! I bought my 2.4 '08 Honda Accord coupe in 2012 only to figure out there is nothing for it. All the aftermarket company are too cheap to try something like this and they only care about the Civic Civic Civic Civic ugh or the v6 Honda Accord coupe. They completely skipped over the 8th gen Honda Accord 2.4. Thank you man I cannot thank you enough for doing this!
For those of us who don't scroll through all the comments, does anyone know what happened to the project? I was hoping to see the completed build and dyno.
you are the best at explaining things like B is for Build and i love this project. Just keep going because this project is personal to me. Really need all the help and knowledge i can get
Thanks Justaine! I'm excited to get this going since I drive my Honda the most out of all of my cars. I am hoping to enjoy the extra power day in and day out 👍
Just to share more technical knowledge about Honda's i-VTEC because I've got nothing better to do. Honda made many versions of their "i-VTEC" systems. The performance oriented i-VTEC incorporated valve lift and timing on both the intake and exhaust side. Engines like the K20A, K20A2, K20Z1, K20Z3, K24A2, and K24A3 have the performance version of i-VTEC. Some engines like the K20A3 and K24A8 only had "i-VTEC-E." Those engines don't incorporate variable valve lift, only a 12 to 16 valve switch over and variable valve timing. These engines usually produce more low-end torque and have better fuel efficiency. However, they don't rev as high and make less top-end power. In addition, their switch over is extremely early in the rev range and barely noticeable. There is another version of i-VTEC that incorporates variable valve lift, but only on the intake cam. Engines like the K24Z3 (like the one in this video) have this version of i-VTEC where VVL only occurs on the intake side. Both intake and exhaust sides still have VTC, so this systems sets itself in the middle of performance and fuel economy. You can generally tell the different K-Series engines apart by the intake manifold cover. If the lettering is red, then the engine has real "i-VTEC." If the manifold cover has black lettering or no lettering at all, it's most likely the "economy i-VTEC." Of course there's the head stamping to go off by too. I'd love to hear more facts from fellow Honda fans and enthusiasts. Thanks!
Finally! I have a 9th gen civic si and I was looking into doing this and I can't find it anywhere, so thank you! Also I made 232hp 183tq on my 9th gen, k24z7 however I wanted to get on my exhaust and intake so I finally find you with all this!
I'm tuning a guy in Central America that has the K20z3 head on a K24z7 block. Making great power even with the stock Z7 oil pump and 1000ft above sea level. Made 233whp and 190tq on a base run. We're aiming for mid 240s by the end of it
Make sure u use NGK plugs for this set up I read the part list you posted and I saw you are planning or planed on using BOSH spark plugs Honda motors usually perform best with NGK or Denso’s
ZunoFG4 it sounds silly but its true. I cant tell u how many times ive given several different types of bosch plugs a try and the engine always feels just a bit off. Back to ngk's or densos and u can tell the slight difference in the smoothness with which the motor revs and idles.
k24a2 with type s oil pump, vtc gear skunk ultra manifold with bigger throttle body and race header valve springs, 3inch exhaust and a 4inch intake on e85 will do 300whp reving it to 9k tuned.
Mannnn I drive a 2014 civic si , I want to do the exact same thing , the info on how to put a rbb vtec head is very limited, I’m glad I found your videos on UA-cam ! How’s the build going ? Can’t wait to see the end result!!
Hey I was looking to upgrade my 2008 Accord, like you, I have some mild mods, tune exhaust intake mod and a street flywheel. Am looking forward to seeing this build
I know this is an old video, but 4 piston mentions that after porting the r40 head, it is the best flowing head out of all k series for all motor applications. You can actually add vtec cams on the exhaust side of the r40 head, and it’ll be better than the k20 heads and rbb (k24a2) head
Well that shows the differences between the American Acura k-24 engines and our Australian accord euro K-24 engines-my 2011 accord euro cu2 luxury has the K-24z3 engine but it has vtec on the intake and exhaust cams unlike the K-24 in this engine. There are so many variants of this engine and are different in other countries. My wife has a 2006 odyssey with a K-24 A3 but in America you guys got the 3.5 v6 engine in them.
Just adding if you get 300 hp out of a 4 banger your doing good. Because on Nicks Garage (You Tube) from Montreal, Quebec he does a lot of V8 builds with forged connecting rods and pistons. Average Horsepower on his Dyno is 600 horsepower out of a V8. So your half of a V8 an 4 cylinder so if you where to get 300 hp (non turbo-ed or super charged) an Good accomplishment. Will be an interesting build for sure.
Sheldon Williams When you map it out it’ll be cheaper and wiser to sell your base and buy an Si. I suggest joining the 8th gen forum on Facebook to help you better understand why you don’t wanna do this
You will need to properly port and polish that head in order to make 300 hp all motor. Be a lot cheaper to leave the k24z3 bone stock and put a gt30r turbo on it. That will make 450 whp a lot easier and cheaper. Hey....good luck with the build!
Glad you're making these videos! I just got curious on what it would take (price and difficulty) to build a Honda engine like this since I always hear people talk about it
Well the price is the biggest part of what you can and can't do. If money is no object, I'd be buying a billet K24 engine block, but they're upwards of $8k right there, and that isn't even touching internals. I have a sheet in the description box of this video that I will be updating as I buy parts and spend money towards this build.
Looking to replace both cams on a K24Z3. The OEM cams (14110-RL5-000 and 14120-RL5-000) are $600 plus each. Are there any other less costly cams that will work in the K24Z3?
Are you gonna be doing this to the civic eventually?, i am thinking about doing this to my 9th gen civic and having a video reference of the build would be awesome.
Tuning on 93/94 octane I assume since you're in Ontario? E85 is hard to come by up here.. You're going to need some serious head work to make 300 whp on pump gas, p&p, 12.5:1, 80mm+ TB, big tube header, ect. Not that it hasn't been done, because it definitely has.. But the stock ports on the head will be the one thing holding you back. Contact RaceHeads in St. Andrews Ontario. The world record stock block H2b is running a Raceheads cylinder head, 300whp on M5 fuel.
The 06-08 head is better in the fact that the camshafts are slightly larger, and the intake valves are 1mm larger. The cams I'm swapping out, and I may upgrade intake valves. We'll see
Hey I was planning on building a k24z3 turbo for a DD, what do you suggest? Should I gut it and rebuild it or run it on stock internals? If I gut it what pistons and rods should I use? What type of valve/valve springs and retainers should I get? This is my first time building a motor so any suggestions or support is really appreciated. Thank you!
That is an interesting build, complex when it is already known internally more focus on the block that Honda k series are pretty reliable as proven by both the internet and various youtube channels that mainly boost these motors and everything is stock is kicking over 350 HP day in and day out. I would have thought this was a simple budget build, so a mild rebuilt head with cams and a RSX VTC timing gear, PLM Header, etc, a tune and go can reach 300 hp goal and still be reliable...Even i see that you have the ATI damper total over kill, would it have been just been easy to just use a OEM Honda ITR (the similar RSX type S) crank pulley and your good None the less good luck on the build : )
I'll be getting into the oil pump in a later video, as the Type S oil pump cannot be bolted up to the K24Z blocks. It's nice for the K24A blocks as the threaded holes of the block align with the holes in the pump. You'll see how I get around that problem.
Hi milan I have watched this video atleast 5 times now.. I have a 9th gen si that is why I very interested, how is the build coming along? Love you content man!
I would have to agree with him. The K23A1 that came out of the Acura RDX is an OEM engine that came boosted and it has the same single collector found on the cylinder head. It is a smart design and makes pretty good power for an engine with 8.8:1 CR pistons.
milanmastracci also love the videos man, as a Mclaren tech it’s awesome to see someone working on things and doing the most quality job they can, used to watch more when I had my tsx but keep it up.
From my understanding, the V6 will have more low end torque even after I complete my build, but mine will be lighter and should have a better top end. I'm speculating right now but we'll see 😁
I have a 2013 Honda Civic Si Sedan K24Z7, I have low compression on cylinder 1 and 2 so I need a motor a used low miles motor runs me 1800. What do you recommend to do
Just out of curiosity what would you wind up with by just swapping the head? My 09 Accord has about 65k miles on it. I was considering putting in a 6 cylinder l but I like this solution better. I'd also like to ask you for more details about upgrading the exhaust to dual. Did you need any custom parts or was it all Honda OEM parts? Thanks Tom USA
Hey I did a swap on my Acura CSX with a K2.4A2 Acura TSX engine the TSX engine don't have the EGR system now I am getting code PO401 exhaust gas restrictions can you please help me sort the problem out thks
Thanks for the list brother...hope to refer to it at first chance! These engines are simply amazing even stock, so i prioritized appearance and got the lowering springs, black halos, heavy tint and black Ruffino fivestars. Its all about contrast for me)) What else would you suggest look-wise Milan?
@@milanmastracci that sounds perfect, since thats the only paint chipping place on it . I kind of like how the black sunroof stands out, but i might actually give it a shot. Thanks
For only 300hp, why not just go with the J35 v6 on these accords that are already basically making that? More torque, less revs, simpler. Not sure about gas mileage between the two though.
So far I like your videos. Idk why I never saw your channel but glad I did.. Question.. Why you chose the k24z3 with the hope of making 300hp with swapping the cylinder head of the k24a2 when you can simply use the entire k24a2 and just reuse the plugs of the sensors and extend the wires as needed. You can make 300hp all day with the parts your using inside of the a2. Just curious to know -Miguel -Migz 🍊range peel
Very good question Migz! There are a bunch of differences between the K24A2 and K24Z3 engine. I will be making a video talking about differences, as you cannot take one complete engine, and swap it into a different car. The K24A engines are the first generation K24s, and the Zs are the second gen ones.
@@milanmastracci as far as generation goes I'm up to date with that. I'm looking forward to seeing the video about it .. was just wondering as you can literally drop the A2 in just about anything lol in your case it should be just mount brackets I'm sure someone already did it .. In my case I have an older integra DA chassis going with a JDM k24a from a cl9 and using your same transmission in my case they say to change the inner casing for the 02-04 typeS transmission due to the VSS plug and what not.. but they already have an adapter for the plug for the 06-11 Si z3 trans VSS.. of I find some info on that hope you dont mind me sending it your way.. but none the less dude I love what you're doing -migz 🍊range peel
not too sure if you have come acorss or would be able to anwser, i have a 2009 accord cu2 with a k24a3 engine block but with the z exhasut and intake manifold, wondering if itd be a straight swap to an a3 head? or will modifications most likely need to be done

Every forum I've ever seen always says the z3 isn't worth it but I'm glad to see someone putting work into the 8th gen.

You can generally tell the different K-Series engines apart by the intake manifold cover. If the lettering is red, then the engine has real "i-VTEC." If the manifold cover has black lettering or no lettering at all, it's most likely the "economy i-VTEC." Of course there's the head stamping to go off by too.
I'd love to hear more facts from fellow Honda fans and enthusiasts. Thanks!
Holy shit brother, I'm so excited for you and this build!!!
I'm happy to hear that man! 👊
hey Milam, I have a 2009 accord coupe k24z3 and I'm planning on doing the exact same thing. I'm gonna model my build after yours ! good luck
That's awesome Estefan! I hope this works out for both of us 🔥
howd it go
Can't wait for this whole series to be done bro!

I've seen these things in pictures but seeing the R40 head in this video makes me want one so bad. The integrated manifold is beautiful.
I have one but want a k24a2 head lol
K24a2 for the win. Love the a2s!
They're an impressive engine! 👍
06+ 👍🏽

When this is done, you’ll want to sell the mini
True!
Probably lol
Or K-swap the Mini...
Has he finished this build? The last update was 2 years ago??
When my BRZ's motor blows I want one of these. I cant wait to learn how, great project! P.S. make more and sell them to us

k24a2 with type s oil pump, vtc gear skunk ultra manifold with bigger throttle body and race header valve springs, 3inch exhaust and a 4inch intake on e85 will do 300whp reving it to 9k tuned.
Do you own this car? Or you've seen it?
Can the manual 2004 Acura TSX transmission work in the 2011 manual Honda Accord
So excited to see the new build and the videos coming up
That's what I'm trying to do!! I want more power. I can't wait to see this done 😎

@@jameslapine678 okay I will
If you have the k24 engine with same block why swap the whole engine an not just the head or build the motor you have ????????
It's just about impossible to find a complete, derailed build of a k24. Three are plenty of videos where they tslk sb2👍🏼
Very nice! Are you racing those? If not, is lot work and time consumed all that power just for street.
From bottom of oil pan to top of valve cover , how tall is that engine?
I have... I have... I have... lol.... you have a stripped down engine with all different stuff. So basically you have a 2.4l on steroids.
Great video
You will need to properly port and polish that head in order to make 300 hp all motor.
Be a lot cheaper to leave the k24z3 bone stock and put a gt30r turbo on it.
That will make 450 whp a lot easier and cheaper.
Hey....good luck with the build!
Did you buy all the parts at once or did you acquire them over time and did you ever finish the build
Will you make a video on price breakdown of cost to do a kswap?
turned on the bell notification!
If it's a daily is best to use cast pistons, forged are best for track use only vehicle
Please Always Mention back to the name of the Engine, It's hard to keep up of Which is Which when you are Going through it!!! Thank you!!!

Its coming! 🙌
This is gonna be interesting! Good job mate!
Hey what engine management are you considering; aftermarket needed to get to 300‽
I currently have Ktuner, but I need to find someone who can tune it to its full potential
Looking to replace both cams on a K24Z3. The OEM cams (14110-RL5-000 and 14120-RL5-000) are $600 plus each. Are there any other less costly cams that will work in the K24Z3?
Are you gonna be doing this to the civic eventually?, i am thinking about doing this to my 9th gen civic and having a video reference of the build would be awesome.
This is going to be awesome. Slap a turbo and it will 400+ hp
Btw this is not a direct swap, the coolant passage would need to be modified and some other things
This is super helpful!
This is going to be awesome good luck
Thanks Gareth! 👊
@@milanmastracci welcome
Can the manual 2004 Acura TSX transmission work in the 2011 manual Honda Accord
So did you put the a2 head on the z3 block? What did you have to change to do that. I never saw a reassembly video
" ..... Which allows more air to go into the engine." ok next your gonna say: MORE POWER BABY!!😂😂
( Sorry I just jump to another channel😂)
Tuning on 93/94 octane I assume since you're in Ontario? E85 is hard to come by up here.. You're going to need some serious head work to make 300 whp on pump gas, p&p, 12.5:1, 80mm+ TB, big tube header, ect. Not that it hasn't been done, because it definitely has.. But the stock ports on the head will be the one thing holding you back. Contact RaceHeads in St. Andrews Ontario. The world record stock block H2b is running a Raceheads cylinder head, 300whp on M5 fuel.
Ima try to do this
come down here and do mine next u bloody fool.awesome
So much knowledge 👍👍
Cool build! The 06+ tsx head I've heard is much better than the 04-05
The 06-08 head is better in the fact that the camshafts are slightly larger, and the intake valves are 1mm larger. The cams I'm swapping out, and I may upgrade intake valves. We'll see
this gonna be crazzyyy
You can also make more power by upgrading the cooling system
Hey I was planning on building a k24z3 turbo for a DD, what do you suggest? Should I gut it and rebuild it or run it on stock internals? If I gut it what pistons and rods should I use? What type of valve/valve springs and retainers should I get? This is my first time building a motor so any suggestions or support is really appreciated. Thank you!
What was Honda thinking when they designed the Z3 head?

What happened to the rest of the videos for this series?
I want this combo in my mr2.
Why not just buy a 07 usdm tsx head and put in on your k24 block? Why buy all these additional engines?
Is building a k24z3 block worth building? Or should I get an k24A2 block? Also will it fit with a k20z1 head? Will it fit in a RSX?
So can I just swap the head right over no issue I know you upgraded the internals but I’m genuinely just asking if I can swap the k24z3 with the k24a2
Hi milan I have watched this video atleast 5 times now.. I have a 9th gen si that is why I very interested, how is the build coming along? Love you content man!
Whats the difference between k24z1 and k24z4?
Z3 head is good for turbo, shorter collector/tubing which relates to less lag, check bisimoto the civic he just made he explains it all.
I would have to agree with him. The K23A1 that came out of the Acura RDX is an OEM engine that came boosted and it has the same single collector found on the cylinder head. It is a smart design and makes pretty good power for an engine with 8.8:1 CR pistons.

Bro, my current 2009 coupe makes 300hp with basic bolts ons, I’m interested in seeing how different it’ll be with the 4 banger vs the v6 which I have
From my understanding, the V6 will have more low end torque even after I complete my build, but mine will be lighter and should have a better top end. I'm speculating right now but we'll see 😁
If i put a k20z3 head on k24z3 block will I be able to have as much power as this set-up?

Thanks for the list brother...hope to refer to it at first chance! These engines are simply amazing even stock, so i prioritized appearance and got the lowering springs, black halos, heavy tint and black Ruffino fivestars. Its all about contrast for me))
What else would you suggest look-wise Milan?
seems like you already have a bunch done to it! Have you considered wrapping your roof black? I always find that to look good 👍
@@milanmastracci that sounds perfect, since thats the only paint chipping place on it . I kind of like how the black sunroof stands out, but i might actually give it a shot. Thanks
If you have a 04 TSX what head and block would you use, or would you just keep the same engine and just change the internals?
I have a 2007 crv whit bad engine k24z1,I found a k24a8 this engine fit my crv?
For only 300hp, why not just go with the J35 v6 on these accords that are already basically making that? More torque, less revs, simpler. Not sure about gas mileage between the two though.
So far I like your videos. Idk why I never saw your channel but glad I did..
Question..
Why you chose the k24z3 with the hope of making 300hp with swapping the cylinder head of the k24a2 when you can simply use the entire k24a2 and just reuse the plugs of the sensors and extend the wires as needed. You can make 300hp all day with the parts your using inside of the a2. Just curious to know

Very good question Migz! There are a bunch of differences between the K24A2 and K24Z3 engine. I will be making a video talking about differences, as you cannot take one complete engine, and swap it into a different car. The K24A engines are the first generation K24s, and the Zs are the second gen ones.
@@milanmastracci as far as generation goes I'm up to date with that. I'm looking forward to seeing the video about it .. was just wondering as you can literally drop the A2 in just about anything lol in your case it should be just mount brackets I'm sure someone already did it ..
In my case I have an older integra DA chassis going with a JDM k24a from a cl9 and using your same transmission in my case they say to change the inner casing for the 02-04 typeS transmission due to the VSS plug and what not.. but they already have an adapter for the plug for the 06-11 Si z3 trans VSS.. of I find some info on that hope you dont mind me sending it your way.. but none the less dude I love what you're doing

1:08 WAIT SO IVE HAD A Z3 IN MY CAR THE WHOLE TIME
not too sure if you have come acorss or would be able to anwser, i have a 2009 accord cu2 with a k24a3 engine block but with the z exhasut and intake manifold, wondering if itd be a straight swap to an a3 head? or will modifications most likely need to be done
It will not be a straight swap unfortunately. The head and block ports won't line up properly.
I have the k24z3 block on my 2010 tsx which k20 head would b the best (model and year)
Dang I kinda wanna do this to my 09 accord 4 door lol
Did you finished your engine? All motor 300hp k24?
