“this is the day” -30days ago Gerb

Same experience with the Hondata basemaps.. And I am also in the NE with similar elevation and weather.. I tried all 3 k24 maps.. The CRV, the standard TSX k24a2, and the bolt on K24a2.. They all had my car idling wonky and running super rich.

Congratulations, I've been following your build. Just picked up my first 8th gen Civic SI last year. Only had 66,000 mi on it and it was bone stock! My son and I have been working on it and I just started autocrossing it a couple weeks ago here in Connecticut.

So damn happy for you achieving your goals ! You have always stayed true to you and your cause good job dude

I know the feelings l got My K24-a2 with K20 on the top and its so fast and hasn’t let me down own it.

I stumbled onto this channel for a DIY vid and subscribed just because you're regular dude like me with a 8th gen si. I Personally went k20/k24a and think its the best of both worlds. z3 valve train is beefier and head has better flow. I'm at 230/185 whp but 2 1/2 exhaust is definitely a restriction on a k24.

K24 is the way bro

That’s dope u swapped it bro!!!

Been waiting for this video!! Congrats!!

Way Too Go Sir You Set Your Mind To It And Methodically Did Your Build!! Congratulations!

very good your brother project k24

If you haven't seen my last video, here is the first start reaction. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rZmIm9Kl0tXDl6c.html

The reason the CRV basemap sucks has to do with having it’s VTEC at 2200 RPM. This is because the CRVs use VTEC-E, which is designed for fuel economy instead of power. No idea how to “fix” that myself, though. I’m not sure if it’s a limitation of the camshafts or the entire head/rocker assembly itself. Or maybe it’s possible to push the VTEC crossover above your redline so that you’ll be able to use all 16 valves for the full powerband (VTEC-E basically turns your engine into a 12 valve engine when it engages.) If my explanation doesn’t make much sense, just leave a comment and I’ll try to explain more clearly. I’d love to of any help, if possible. Hopefully this information helps you get a little closer to a solution so you can continue squeezing every bit of power that you can out of that engine. Great work so far man, can’t wait to see what’s next in store!

I never gotten so nervous over a video my boy gerb out here 💯😈

Love the vids! I was really hoping for you to say F-IT and open it up on the back roads haha

Let that thing rip ! Now the torque steer will be crazy and lsd will do its job! Excited for this build good stuff bro!

Well its about time!!!!

Bro I never seen some so happy 💪🏿💪🏿 I can't wait to put my f23a back in my accord and pop some gears . Damn car been sitting for almost a year now with problem after problem.

Hey Gerb, what has worked for me when replacing the coolant is to leave the cap open, start the car and you will see bubbles and the fluid drain down as it gets warmer, then you keep topping it off until it won’t take anymore and the bubbles should disappear eventually.

This video made me smile ahahaha, congrats man! Happy for you!

Long time follower...Congrats bro 🤙🏽

i would definitely go with TuningbNick. Awesome dude! im fortunate enough to live close by his shop. Just recently got a tune from him for my 9th gen civic si and that man is a magician!

Doing my a second k24 swap in my fg2 starting tomorrow!

Sound really good gerb!👍🏾👍🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾 sounds like a 9th gen almost.

This is awesome man cant wait for more videos

Wait a moment, the best of all the video... the air intake... jaja! Great work bro!

Lmaoo I’ve been waiting for this video 😂🔥

Nice my man 👍🏼,it’s a whole different beast enjoy it put some miles on it then maybe down the road go for boost man either a supercharger or turbo,I’m slapping a turbo on my fa5 soon that would really put a big smile on ur face haha

Great job man I’m proud of you 👍

So stoked for you man! Can’t wait for the day I can get a better engine in my 8th gen Civic.

So excited for this new chapter

Nice video homie! Cars seeming good! My buddy is swapping in a k24 in his Si aswell

Subbed as soon as I seen the plate. Good to see a fellow crap stater.

Looks and works awesome. Good job.

Very awesome man! You should be proud of your work!

bro youre out by me im over in suffield grew up in east windsor! i have a fa5 love your channel

Only thing you’re really breaking in is the clutch right? Everything thing else is used correct?

Nice bro. Needs an n1 exhaust lol. See you still using the air freshener that I gave ya at last hday lol. Cant wait for the next hday and to chill with ya and see the new engine. My devsport splitters finally came. Cant wait to get them on the car. Also got my 410 injectors. No more buying parts for my car for a while now, lol🤐🤐

Congrats 🥳. Funny though, my Stang has literally double the torque of the K20Z3. It’s fun having torque 😎

72a if you get that mount, that's the sweet spot. Nice work Gerb!!

Yeeeeeeaaaahhhh!

*_Looks like fun!_* I don’t think I can do an engine swap though. Barely approaching ~65,000 Mile* (if I converted correctly) (๑╹◡╹)ﾉ"

You so happy ...great video

Make sure u get that rear motor mount from hasport my stock one snapped in half with the torque from the k24

Deaaaaaaaaammm nice Ride Dude🔥

Doesn't the CRV use economy VTEC? So it goes from 3-valve to 4-valve low lift at ~2k RPM? I would think with the performance k24 that you swapped you'd actually lose torque down low with the high cam engaging that early. Either way, nice to see it running again!

Is this engine gasoline or diesel sound like a Diesel engine

DUUUUDE! Thank you for all the videos there a huge help! I have the same car and my z3 took a $#!+ Im doing a K24 swap with a type s oil pump! Keep 🔧brother!

Get on it!

Hey Gerb you have any quarter mile times with the old setup, some hard data to compare for later?

the crv has a ivtec-e which engages all 4 valves per cylinder after 2200 rpm and not the regular ivtec that increases valve lift

Gerb do you have a hard time taking off your k24 valve cover. I have the 8th gen si also and I don’t want to pull the motor mount any suggestions??

Congrats Gerb! Are you still running the same full ktuned master and slave clutch cylinders? Im having grinding issues.

Daaaaamn bro good for you!!! Mad props🙏🤙👌 doing it yourself out back!!! That will make you feel gooood about yourself getting that done!!!

what state are you at bro? i love the scenery.

🤙🏼 keep it up bro!!

dude is like a kid in a candy store loli live it #vtec #honda

Alright Gerb all were waiting for now is that moon tune now that the CAI is on lol.

💯 I’m going to eBay turbo brother but that’s a nice set up congrats

Interested in your K20, I'm in RI and can come grab it this weekend.

I'm thinking about grabbing a k24 block and building it for next summer..

What is the bare minimum you need to make the k24 work in the 8th gen civic I’ve been looking but find no answers

I knew you were keeping rebuilt z3 head a surprise lol should of made of video of install

Definitely need to swap out my r18. Where to get the JDM emblem for the steering?

I have a k20a3 I cant get up hills with that little effort. I can't wait to get a 2.4 lol

You did it! Congrats 🎈🍾🎊🎉

Gerb bro quick question I have a 8th gen civic (lx 1.8) its possible to swap a K24 into a regular civic… or do I have to get the K24 plus a Si computer?

So is that K24a from a Japanese crv or tsx? Cause you probably should run a tsx map if it’s a normal 3 lobe vtec motor.

New viewer. How much was the swap total? Looking to get a clean Rsxs and k24 swap it.

I've had a Bluetooth hondata for a while and had no idea they had an app lol.

2200 for vtec is way too low...

Yo gerb how did you fix the clear coat on the civic? I have a 2008 and have the same problem.

these engines got loud valves naturally

Oh boy, KZfaq recommended something that I’m actually interested in. A k24 swapped 8th gen! Love it. Want to do the same with my 8th gen someday. Might run forced induction too.

K24A2 in my TSX with RBC style manifold and flashpro

Congrats

Great 🔥✌🏽

I can't wait til you can get on it and lay a patch ⚡⚡🔥

k24 🙏🔥🔥🔥🔥

Yo gerb I just finished my k24a2 swap and now I’m have throttle problems? Is there a throttle relay I have to do? Or? Need help?

Definitely need a valve adjustment my guy

Congrats man, just needs proper bolt ons and tune and you'll be golden

Would you ever install an aftermarket exhaust gerb ?

I was gonna say that motor is sitting up super high in the bay. Looks like it barely clears.

definitely looks like a Connecticut driveway.. lmao. sweet swap, i live in Bethel

It's funny to hear you talk like you just put a LS motor in it. Bro its a NA K24. You may have 10hp more and 20 tq more then before. Who are you fooling other then yourself? *Now change the oil to get all the break in oil and debris out of it*

Nice bro good job!

Where do you get the emblems .. Are you getting them from honda or the fake ones

35mph in 4th gear??? Wow

Put on the k20 head n the type s oil pump and you will beat every car you race

Is that a twisted

Time for boooooooooooost!!!!

Is this the 3 lobe k24a or the 2 lobe ?

Tune it to open up at like 3000-3500 rpm

You better take some oil out from your engine 4.5 quarter

that engine is the one with my wife's car 07 honda element sc

💯🔰🔰🙌🙌🙌🔥🚘
