Big hassle to fit K20A into Honda Fit?

youtube showed me alot of those but back when usdm fit wasn't out yet, some american dudes imported a fit that ended up in yellow, they fitted a K20A in it but they had to mod the firewall and stuff, then last month burning77 or anthony quan sent me a link on superstreet i think, and they did a K20A Fit...so is it a hassle? or is it a puzzle you can always fit without cheating?(modding firewall i mean)

im guessing it would be a big hassle from the size of the engine bay that a fit has...

would there need to be any firewall cutting then?

no idea~

what car u drive?

lol im only driving in my dreams, no liscence yet, turned 15 2 months ago, i learned how to drive stick a bit...

soon very soon~ time will fly

what car was ur first car? the accord?

yup~ still got lots of work to do on it~

actually i the FG2's Engine Bay is almost the same size as the stupid FIT =)
so proper engine mounts, nice axles should get you around =)
well yeah it's gunna be too ballin'

would you choose a EG or a Fit?

I gotta say EG`` since it's identical to the DC2

how much would it cost for the swap on a EG? stock ecu and stuff?

around 12g i say with labour``

holy shit are u serious? what if i found all my parts and only needed labour?

well parts = 6k ish = the rest labour``

fit with civic si k20

expect quite a bit, as labour is the intensive part.

the k20 is a pricey engine because it's still fairly new, not like the plethora of B series engines that have flooded and are still drowning the market.

Its actually a pretty simple swap..
You can do it if you have a little background in working on cars, a cherry picker, and a hoist.
I have a PDF file on how to do a GDK swap if anyone is actually interested.

(You'd be surprised how straight forward it is)

yeha that kid talking about it is a 15 year old?

put it this way, k20's rule all.

oh they have sumthing to kill k with a b now lmao`` i wanna try it =)

Yes its too big of a hassle n not really worth the time/effort imo.......for all that u might as well get a DC5

And aren't K20As good for 98 octane anyways?
So u might as well just use what u have here.....

However..........the new fit may be a different story hehehehehe =D
