Transform your Honda CR-Z into a K24-powered performance machine with the Hasport ZFK1-24 K-Series Engine Swap Mount Kit, designed for installing a compatible Honda K24 engine into the 2011–2016 Honda CR-Z ZF chassis using an Acura RSX or 2002–2011 Honda Civic Si manual transmission.

The Hasport ZFK1-24 provides an application-specific mounting solution for enthusiasts looking to replace the factory 1.5L hybrid powertrain with a larger-displacement Honda K24 engine. Featuring precision-engineered mounting brackets, performance polyurethane bushings, and Hasport's dual-height engine mounting system, this kit helps position and support the drivetrain within the CR-Z engine bay.

The Honda CR-Z's compact dimensions, responsive handling, and lightweight design make it an exciting platform for K-Series engine conversions. Installing a K24 provides access to a wide range of naturally aspirated and forced-induction performance upgrades while offering the increased displacement and torque potential associated with Honda's 2.4L K-Series engines.

However, fitting a K24 drivetrain into the CR-Z requires specialized mounting components to accommodate the taller engine block, transmission mounting configuration, axle alignment, and surrounding component clearances.

The Hasport ZFK1-24 addresses these challenges with a purpose-built mounting system specifically configured for compatible K24 engines and earlier-generation K-Series manual transmissions.

Designed for Acura RSX and Civic Si Manual Transmissions

The ZFK1-24 is designed for compatible manual transmissions originally found in:

• 2002–2006 Acura RSX

• 2002–2011 Honda Civic Si

These transmissions use different mounting configurations than those found in later Honda Accord, Acura TSX, and Civic Si applications.

The ZFK1-24 provides the appropriate mounting arrangement for the supported RSX and Civic Si transmission family.

Selecting the correct mount kit is essential because the transmission case and mounting configuration determine which Hasport ZFK-series kit is required.

K24-Specific Dual-Height Mounting Design

One of the key features of the Hasport ZFK1-24 is its dual-height engine mounting system.

Honda K24 engines feature taller engine blocks than K20 engines. This difference affects cylinder head height, hood clearance, and the positioning of intake and exhaust components.

Hasport's dual-height mounting system is designed to accommodate these differences by maintaining a consistent cylinder head position between corresponding K20 and K24 configurations.

The ZFK1-24 uses the appropriate mounting arrangement for compatible K24 engines, helping provide:

• Proper engine positioning within the CR-Z engine bay.

• Consistent cylinder head placement relative to the corresponding K20 configuration.

• Improved consideration for hood and ground clearance.

• Appropriate drivetrain and axle alignment.

• More predictable intake manifold and exhaust header positioning.

• Additional flexibility when planning custom turbocharger systems.

This makes the ZFK1-24 an ideal mounting foundation for K24-powered CR-Z performance builds.

Precision-Engineered Construction

Hasport designs its engine mounting systems using CAD/CAM technology to optimize component fitment, mounting strength, and drivetrain positioning.

The ZFK1-24 incorporates precision-manufactured mounting components and application-specific brackets engineered for the Honda CR-Z chassis.

These components provide dependable drivetrain support for street performance, autocross, road racing, and drag racing applications.

Performance Polyurethane Bushings

The Hasport ZFK1-24 uses performance polyurethane bushings designed to reduce excessive engine and transmission movement.

Compared with conventional factory rubber mounts, polyurethane bushings provide increased resistance to drivetrain movement during acceleration, deceleration, and gear changes.

This helps maintain more consistent engine positioning, improves drivetrain stability, and can reduce movement that contributes to wheel hop.

Hasport offers multiple bushing hardness options, allowing builders to select the appropriate balance between vibration isolation and drivetrain rigidity.
