In the latest series of honda tuning they have an article about putting a K series into a 93 civic. It's good reading.

Why is everyone obssessing over K's these days? They aren't that great. :doh:

You're going to love the wiring it will need, and the swap kit would probably cost more then the 84-87/B-series kits.

Don't the K's have F/H style cable shifters? That would be another bitchy part.

Oh, yeah, and the whole low supply/high demand part. K's aren't cheap.

Huh? You're not talking the difference between the K20A2 and A3 now, are you?

No, all of them have VTC only on the intake.
It would be more benefical if they had it on both.
Isn't the DOHC VTEC on them different too?
