k20 honda shuttle

Right, so i bought this wagon last week and im planning to drop my k20 in it, I thought that would make a helluva sleeper

It's a 1.4 dual carb model and it's really great. Hardly any rust and everything is still working as it should :thumbup:

This is the K20 that will go in:

Its a K20a1, It's got some K-tuned and hybrid racing parts and a spoon kevlar coilpack cover. It's going to get built though, but Im not sure how im going to build it yet, perhaps im even going to turbo it.

It's not gonna be a trackcar or anything, we mainly use it to transport engines and bumpers and stuff from england to europe :D
More pics to follow :D

    We replaced the original suspension bits for a KW variant 2 coiloverkit from sixpointnine. We also replaced the LCA's with polybushed ones:

    I can still drop around 10 cm but i think its ok like this. The car will be lower anyways with a few rb26 engines in te back haha

    The wagon on here with a K24 ran into hood clearance problems.

    So I'm wondering if the K20 has the same basic dimensions and if so how will you solve the hood clearance question to stay sleeper-ish.

    Shes beautiful! What is that front lip off of? I want it!!
  • antigramantigram Band Wagon
    the K20 is 1.5cm lower so it should be allright. you probably have to mount a civic vtec hood or something but thats it :D

    The lip is a fiberworx crx front lip. I think its a password replica, which again is a j's replica lol! Lovin this build!
  • rbshuttlerbshuttle Band Wagon

    so my carbs decided to die so i couldnt drive my car anymore. Im not planning to put the K in just yet, so i'll have to put a cheaper engine in in the mean while and I just so happen to have an dohc 1.6 d series engine plus gearbox out of a crx. Im going to put that engine in the shuttle, but I have some questions

    Im doing an auto to manual conversion, can I just fit pedals in it from a civic or crx?
    I have a crx gas tank, can I use the fuel pump from it and use the existing lines?
    I've heard from gizmo that a crx shift linkeage does not fit, is that correct?
