Models originally equipped with the K24A2 engine
The K24A RBB-3 is a performance-oriented member of Honda’s K-series family, offering responsive acceleration, strong midrange torque, smooth high-RPM operation, and proven long-term reliability. It is an excellent OEM-style replacement for first-generation Acura TSX models.
JDM installations may require transferring the original USDM intake and exhaust manifolds, throttle body, fuel rail and injectors, wiring harness, ECU, sensors, emissions equipment, engine mounts and brackets, accessories, oil pan, valve cover, and flywheel or flexplate as needed. Components and electronic calibrations may differ between 2004–2005 and 2006–2008 models.
This engine does not fit 2009-and-newer Acura TSX models without significant modifications. Fitment information is provided for reference only. Please confirm the engine code, RBB configuration, transmission type, and vehicle VIN with a certified mechanic before purchasing, or contact us and we’ll help confirm fitment.
