maddox710 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Has anyone seen this done before? Wondered if the k20 would be small enoughCant emagine it being too much of a mission Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnboy GT Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Is there not a lad on here doing that? Or is it a B series he is putting in? John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

5T4R7ET N/A Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 K20 are awesome engines, would like to see one in a rwd starlet.Kp61 oh yeah Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddox710 Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 It would be a challenge , the exhaust would be a hurdle being quiet tall in dimention its gotta cleare the firewall, electronics is fairly basic Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan-11 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 thought about doing it a few times, even bought a type r as a donor car but ended up using it a a daily There is a kp starlet running a s2000 engine kicking around somewhere Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddox710 Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 Anyone got chassis leg measurements? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 It would need to be a turbo k20 what's the point in doing it and leaving it na would be shit to drive when you can get a ct9 to 200bhp and would be far more fun imop Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Whitenoize Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Na I'd still rather still have a 200bhp turbo engine than the standard k20 any day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Snow Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 the f20 from the s2000 is far superior to the k20 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

morgey Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 A k20 with some select mods and a remap can put out 250hp All day everyday And sounds fucking mega screaming away at 9kUntil someone does it though It doesnt really matter. Plus The 4e would be better as the chassis is designed for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I don't know how much a 4E weighs in at, but a K20 is around 125kg. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Its not just the weight though its position, center of weight, driveshaft angles etc. If you know what you're doing though it would be a great engine to have in one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Mate has a K20 EG (was 220whp soon to be K24) that was mental. Same thing in an EP would be crazy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
