Honda K24 swap interest?

Hi guys I’m really interested to do this swap I have a 1991 325i with a blown m20 so practically it’s just a rolling shell.
Question what zf trans and driveshaft would be best?

Would the m52 m54 swap guides help since there swapping in a zf trans ?


1991 318is 1991 325i

Swap in the s2k transmission; it matches the k series a lot better.

You need the short gears to hit vtec without too many downshifts and a 6th gear for overdrive

5 speed zf has no overdrive, if you want to use a Bmw gearbox use a zf6 speed; I put one in my e30 years ago with m20 engine and it was much improved.

also bump for updates!

Sorry if this is in the wrong category, but I have been accumulating the parts needed to swap in my K24A2 into my 325e. I need to decide on a differential and am leaning towards a 3.64lsd.
I'll be running 205/55/15 tires (same as the e30 M3) paired to the Getrag 260.
Using KMiata's gear calculator, I will be spinning 2,900rpm's at 70mph. This will be strictly a street car with maybe 250hp tops.
My question is with the Getrag gearing and final drive gear ratio. VTEC doesn't kick in until 6k, but I won't be going that high very often. I tried comparing the stock 2008 6 speed gear ratios from the TSX with the G260, but tire size and final drive ratios are different.
Maybe the only way is to buy a diff that's in the ballpark and try it out, sell it if it doesn't match?

you'll probably want as high as you can stand for a diff. I'm sure someone has calculated everything for a g260 with the various diffs but the Honda engines are gonna prefer shorter gearing. I was planning on using a 4.10 since that's what is paired with the m42. but idk the gear ratio differences from the g240 and the g260 off the top of my head

Getrag 5 speed gearing is pretty crappy compared to what the Honda 4 banger wants

You need a 6 speed as mentioned above; this is a Honda 4 banger motor not a Bmw I6 or v8. Or American v8

Your suggested combo of g260 with 1:1 4th and 0.8 overdrive 5th +3.64 would be good with a Chevy lsx v8

Would a dry sump kit work?

And thanks you guys for the info I’m in the process of gathering parts also [emoji4][emoji106]

At dry sump kit
Would this work to clear the subframe instead of making a custom pan ?

It seems like it would still be cheaper with a custom pan.

Ok thanks [emoji120]

Why bother at that point; just stuff in the f20c with proper front sump and it’s magical s2000 6 speed
