Do any of you guys own a K24? I say that because this motor will make 225-235 WHP with quality bolt-ons and a tune. The stock k24a2 in the Tsx is severely choked from the factory. The rev hang in this car is disastrous, fixing that alone would help with acceleration. A tune alone would transform this car. The stock tsx tune is hot garbage from the factory.

@@bgee461 "these cars are laughed at by most new car shoppers." I have to disagree. Most people who have one, *love them.* They are so practical and still are more sporty & fun to drive than a comparable Toyota Yaris (if not quite as sporty as say a Ford Fiesta). The same goes for people loving the 8th-9th Civic hatchbacks which are a Civic front end and a Fit rear end (but obviously widened considerably, by about 250mm/10"). The magic seats and practicality is *awesome!* The cargo area with the seats folded down is just as large as the 10th-11th gen hatchbacks, despite the car being a foot shorter. You can fit two sets of wheels with tyres in there, with room to spare, it's crazy. I love that about my 8th-gen FN2 Civic Type R. The Fit-based 9th-gen FK2 Civic Type R is still my favourite turbo Civic Type R too. The torsion beam rear end gets a lot of criticism, but the Renault Clio RS and Megane RS are also beam rear ends and handle great, while Ichishima-san from Spoon had a lot of praise for the stiffness of the double layer Fit floor pan. Honestly, IRS is not that important in a front wheel drive and it's arguably still better than the IRS on the EP3/DC5 which was a lot worse than the old EF-EK version (i.e., the EP3/DC5 lack rear suspension stroke) for reasons known only to Honda, plus those 7th gens having issues with front end geometry too (so the suspension layout was not great all round compared to the TSX). Not all IRS is created equal -- the EF-EK version and 8th-gen sedan to current versions of IRS are great, of course.

Man, my hand hurt watching you shift gears without a shift knob. I love white shift knobs, too. I had a white Sickspeed Cue Ball shift knob in my old 2007 Ford Fusion. I never thought about the black ones heating up in the sun but it makes sense. One time, I had a polished aluminum one on my Fusion and that thing would definitely cook your hand in summer. I love your Fit. I have a friend who has one from the last year that they sold them in the US and he absolutely loves it. It really is a shame that Honda stopped selling them here, it's amazing how much room that little car has on the inside and it was really nice and affordable, too. I guess at least the rest of the world can still enjoy them. Very nice project. I wonder if the reason for the heat soak is because of where your intake tube is running to, it seems like it'd be getting a lot of hot air from there. Keep up the great work, that is a very nice swap.

Please Brian, give us a breakdown later on on the typical cost of parts needed to do the basic swap, with A/C of course, no tune or anything like that.

Thanks for the update, I'm counting the seconds till the next one! BTW, I have a Yonaka Motorsports catback exhaust on my car which according to the website is a 50-60mm diameter pipe, probably closer to 2.25" rather than the 2.5" you mentioned before, but seems close enough.

My last car was a GK Fit, there weren't too many suspension options when I got it and the common thing was to run Koni Orange for the GE with your choice of lowering springs. Supposedly they were not quite centered in the range of travel for the rears, but they worked fine until they wore out. By that time the Honda sport suspension was released for the GK, and it felt significantly better on the damping. I'd be curious to see someone try the GK factory parts on the GE, if the GE shocks work for both it stands to reason that the GK would as well. Especially for a daily, the moderate drop of the factory sport setup worked better for me.

Dashes, shift knobs and seatbelt buckles get up in the 150-160 range regardless of humidity. Grabbing a 160° seatbelt buckle cans cause blisters. Also AC cools a car in 105°F with 80% humidity weather way faster than a car in 115°F. And it dehumidifies.

My personal idea, was not to give it the Si engine from the civic, rather just use the base 1.8 civic engine. It would go from 117 hp to about 140. Add that with a 5 speed and it would be a fun little car from the factory. I argue the 1.8, because it wouldn't overpower the Fit, and keep costs down for Honda.

At the moment, K24 for the ease of the swap currently. But that could be different in the near future.

Why not build a close ratio 5 spd. with a long first gear/med final drive. I know 6 speed is probably just easier but I've always wanted to mash up an accord k24a1 5spd with an rsx k20a3 5 spd. I've installed RSX-S gears in my TSX transmission it's not a big deal with a shop.

Re: intake tube...at full throttle it's using open loop anyways where it doesn't care what the MAF says? I've also been on the TL-S throttle body and intake setup on my Accord which I think is like a 8mm difference and the ECU doesn't care. It just trims the fuel a few percent and keeps going.
