HUNTING DOWN "FAST CARS" IN MY K24 SWAPPED INTEGRA..

On the last video, down at MK Performance,
I announced the DC2's B18 was coming out
and it was time for more power,
in the form of a K24 swap.
Because, we all know, K is the way, right?
The challenge I set MK Performance
was to get the engine swap ready to go
for one of the biggest events of the year,
Gaston Track Silverstone 24,
to really put it through its paces
and see what a 28-year-old,
high-revving, naturally aspirated K24 DC2
could actually do.
And with all things old-school and Honda,
the results were legendary.
And you know what they say, right?
The power of dreams.
Coming in hot, let's go!
Yeah!

Welcome to Officially Gast.
Let's get it.

All right, guys, so we are at Gaston Track.
We have got my DC2 behind me
with my main man here, Mahir from MK Performance.
Now, at the time, were we doing a K24 Frank?
Did we tell him we were gonna do that?
We just said it was a K24.
Okay, well, we're doing a Frank.
You've pretty much been working flat out
for the last few days to get it ready.
Four days to get it ready for the track day.
Right, show us the engine bay and tell them about it
because this is cool as hell.
So guys, take a look at that.
Yeah, I mean, it's a K24A.
We got a K28A2 head on it.
Stock cams from the A2.
That's it, really.
Just got a Skunk T inlet manifold,
induction kit, manifold,
and the exhaust system, and 550cc injectors.
So what kind of power should we be expecting today?
I know you've kind of rushed it today,
so it's not exactly where you want it to be.
I'll probably say today is probably about 260.
All right.
Yeah, I reckon once we spend a bit more time on it
and sort out a few bits,
I reckon as it is, we'll be around 270-ish.
So from an NA engine, gains are hard to get,
but I mean, with a high-revving NA,
with the torque that we would've picked up from the 2.4,
I think this is gonna make
for a really, really fun drive around the track.
Now, what I'm a little bit hesitant about
is the fact that now we've went K-series gearbox
with six-speed, no LSD.
No LSD.
So that's gonna be interesting
to see how this goes around track.
Now guys, I have never driven this car with its new engine,
so it's trial by fire.
We're gonna go out on track
and we're gonna work it out together.
There's a lot of fast, crazy cars out there today,
so hopefully I can keep pace.
Hopefully I don't bin it.
One more thing, the exhaust.
Oh, yeah, about that.
So there was a last-minute rush to get an exhaust done.
We didn't really get an exhaust done.
Obviously, where the car was four days to finish off,
no one could book us on for an exhaust.
So literally, it's the manifold,
little silencer in the middle,
and then a 90-degree turndown tip.
It sounds good.
It sounds loud.
Ear defenders are recommended.
But anyway, bro, listen,
thank you so much for doing this,
because honestly, he is the wizard
when it comes to the Hondas.
Get out MK Performance for that good sauce.
We're gonna jump straight in at the deep end
and take my DC2 K24 Frank for a spin.
So what I'll probably do, guys,
is I'll probably get some heat into the tyres
and I'll show you the eventful moments,
because I know that no one really, really wants
to watch me go around 100 times.
I've got to get a feel for this car.
It's literally my first drive.
I don't know how the brakes are gonna react.
We changed the brake pads.
The last time I took this out at Donaghton,
it was a slight, well, it was a big different set up.
But this time round, let's see how it goes.
Oh.
Whoa.
Oh.
Whoa.
We've got a C63 and a GTR.
We're chasing them, boys.
We're catching them, boys.
We're catching a GTR and a C63 on the straight 11.
Let's go, boys.
Let's go.
Here comes the GTR.
GTR!
Let's do him lads!
GTR inside boys!
Let's get him!
We're on him boys!
We got him!
Come on!
You understand the business boys!
Alright bye bye!
We've hit limbo!
It was great while it lasted!
Limbo boys! Limbo! Limbo!
That was amazing!
This car guys!
This car is something else!
Obviously got a few niggles but
My God!
This car punches above
its weight man!
It's got a decent pace on the
straights, on the corners
even though LSD
It feels amazing!
Shout out to MK Performance, shout out to everyone who came to
Gaston Track, this is unreal!
Honestly, we've done some
big boy cars there, we've done some big boy cars
That was epic!
Alright my people so
we said it was trial by fire!
MK's put a few safeties on the car, one of them being
if it overheats, limit the RPM
there and the throttle. We've brought in
and a clue as to why we've
lost our throttle is the fact
that here... Chew the belt
Should usually have a belt on it
So yeah, we've lost our belt
No cooling, it's overheated, I've lost my
throttle but I will say bro
like the way this car is moving
even like this car, we come straight out, no
geo, no nothing, straight out
no LSD, shout out to Zestino
because these tyres, the mechanical grip we're getting from the tyres
alone, at this
power at least, it's so usable
I'm barely spinning the wheels
you know, you modulate the throttle, just a little bit coming off the corner
it's sick but for now
that is it, you know it's a work in progress
we're gonna come back, get it dialled in, try a little bit
more power and send it so you'll catch it on another video
so yeah, for now, that's it
and let's enjoy the rest of Gaston Track
Alright guys, it's time to
hit the grandstands because the F1
cars are live right now
this is gonna be an
experience that you
can't see anywhere else
End of the day here
at Gaston Track Silverstone
2024 and what an absolute
crazy day, it has been action, action
action, it seems like
the thousands and thousands of people that turned up
today had an absolutely crazy
time, F1 cars, drift cars
hyper cars
every car you can imagine, track cars
and good people, the vibe has been unreal
massive shout out to MK Performance
2, trial by fire
this car is absolutely insane
that extra torque, that extra power
even without an LSD, granted
I know we had some teething issues
but today for me, in this car
absolutely mind blowing, the tyres
they definitely, definitely
got put to work
but man we had a lot more grip than I thought we would
without an LSD, shout out to
Zestino, shout out to each and
every person who attended this year
and of course our main sponsors
our partners
and yeah just everyone who is
here, Gaston Track 2025
is gonna be different, so once
again a massive shout out to absolutely
everyone, my subscribers and we will
catch you on the next one, peace out
