Please be sure to Read This Entirely as there is a lot of useful information and questions that have been asked frequently!

**These kits are built to order, I expect 6-8 Weeks for a complete kit but times may vary sooner or later** THERE ARE NO CANCELLATIONS OR RETURNS ON THESE ORDERS ONCE PLACED!!! IF YOU CANNOT BE PATIENT DONT BUY

It's no secret the N14/N18 Engines are poorly designed and no matter how many times you rebuild it, the same issues keep occurring. Now you have the option of swapping that out for the well-known reliable and high-performance K series engine.

Your factory electric Powering steering will be operational, Heat, ABS system, Speedometer, Fuel gauge as well as the Keyless Push to Start. Tachometer will not be accurate as the Signal is different. This can be substituted with an aftermarket tachometer which my conversion harness is prewired for a tach output.

The best part of this kit is that you can use the entire factory radiator support (unlike Gen 1 Mini). You can retain and also use the factory radiator, fans, hoses and A/C Condenser. A/C kits will be a future project, for now you must modify yourself.

My Kit Includes the following:

Engine/Transmission Brackets
Engine/Transmission Mounts (Polyurethane bushings) Note: may cause more vibration than normal
Hardware
K series Tucked Engine Wiring Harness
Conversion Harness

Be sure to also add the K swap aluminum oil pan to your order as this is required for the swap to bolt the rear engine mount.

***This Kit will NOT include Axles from me, they will be purchased directly from The Driveshaft Shop. Anyone who purchases a kit will be provided the part number to place an order** PLEASE NOTE: The cost of my kit is a separate charge from the axles.

When removing your old drivetrain be sure to keep the Mini Cooper Engine Control Module (ECU) and Engine wiring harness as this will be needed to get the electric power steering and push to start functions operational

*Note: These kits will be to utilize the K20 or K24 Engine & FWD K series Manual Transmission Only.

FAQ to the swap:

What Ecu can I use with this kit?

The engine harness is based off a 02-04 Acura Rsx so the simplest ecu to use is a 02-04 Hondata Kpro V3, or V4. You can also use AEM V2 for a 02-04 Rsx. If you get a jumper harness you may run AEM infinity or Fueltech ecu as well. Options are endless.

What Engine can I use with the kit?

K20a2, k20a3, k20z1, k20z3, k24a1, k24a2, k24a4, k24a8

What Transmission do I use?

There are many options when it comes to transmissions, all depends on your goals:

02-04 Honda Civic Si Ep3 (5 speed non LSD)

02-04 Acura Rsx Base model (5 speed non LSD)

02-04 Acura Rsx Type S (6 speed non LSD 4.3 Final Drive)

05-06 Acura Rsx Type S (6 speed Non LSD 4.7 Final Drive)

06-11 Honda Civic Si (6 Speed LSD 4.7 Final Drive)

NOTE: Honda Accord/Acura TSX transmission will not work

What shifter cables and Shifter box do I use?

Shifter box and cables must match transmission. If you are using Rsx or Ep3 Transmission you will use a Rsx style (A2) shifter box & cables. If you are using a 06-11 Civic Si transmission you will use the shifter cables and shifter box for the (Z3) as they work backwards from the Rsx.
