Hello ladies and gentlemen of Zilvia,
I have had my SR20DET Redtop S14 Kouki for about 9 months now and have been contimplating a motor swap that has not been done before to my knowledge.
There are so many swaps that have been done on the S chassis it's hard to get outside the box. Which is exactly why i want to proceed with this.
My idea was orginally a Honda AP1 S2000 F20C1 Engine. All around great engine, but i was going thru some old Super Street magazines and found it was done with great success in a S13 drift car. Didn't turn me off but I still want to be original. So the F22C AP2 engine hasn't been done before and that's still a great RWD engine with a better transmission then the AP1 plus it hasn't been done before.
The 04/05 NON-FBW F22C is plan B
Plan A is a couple hundred CC's bigger so to speak.
Going thru some old Honda Tuning magazines someone successfully swapped a K24 into a S2000 chassis using an adapter plate custom made to match the S2K transmission.
That is what I want in my S14, A K24 mated with a AP2 transmission.
Id acquire a K24A1 from a CRV because it is best K24 for the money.
I actually have one in my Honda and absolutly love the motor and it's potential.
By now you may be thinking you are gonna need to get custom manifolds made for exhaust and intake.
I wont, God willing.
I will be turboing the K24 and probably just have a exhaust made custom. For intake side I will utilize the AFI intake manifold which points down and just from speculation should not have any clearance issues.
Also at my recent visit to Rockstar Garage of Onatrio Ca, the S2k master along with his brother, a S-Chassis master gave me very useful tips and information. The K24 RWD combo keeps blowing the engine, something is just not right about it. The brother suspects the oil pan, it's made for front wheel drive cars so the oil pan is the wrong way and will starve the motor of oil.
So custom Baffling would be a good idea.
Also custom motor mounts will be a difficult and require some R&D because the motor would need to be placed correctly and balanced perfectly.
Cant really think of anything else that would be a major issue at this point.
Hopefully I can get some sponsorships and more help from Rockstar Garage to further my odd build.
If you have any helpful information or comments please let me know!
Thanks for reading.
