Unlock the ultimate power-to-weight ratio for your Honda or Acura with a premium JDM K20 engine. All Star JDM is the leading importer of high-performance K20 powerplants, sourced directly from Japan and housed in our Chino, CA warehouse. Whether you are replacing a daily driver motor or sourcing a high-revving Type R head for a competitive swap, we provide tested, warrantied solutions ready to ship nationwide.
Verified Low Mileage: Our K20 JDM engines are hand-selected with only 30,000 to 60,000 miles, offering significantly cleaner internals than high-mileage domestic "USDM" motors.
Compression & VTEC Tested: Every unit undergoes a rigorous multi-point inspection to ensure that VTEC engagement and cylinder health meet original factory specifications.
Certified Protection: All K20 engine sales are backed by our comprehensive limited warranty, giving you total peace of mind for your street or track build.
Rapid USA Shipping: We provide professional freight shipping from Southern California to your home or shop, with local pickup available at our Chino facility.
We stock an extensive range of K20 engines for sale, from fuel-efficient replacements to the most sought-after performance variants.
K20A (Type R / Euro R): The pinnacle of 2.0L naturally aspirated performance. Features higher compression, aggressive cams, and LSD-equipped transmissions (found in the JDM Integra DC5 and Civic EP3).
K20A (Eco/Base): The reliable, fuel-efficient 160HP variant—perfect for replacing tired motors in the base RSX, CR-V, or Accord.
K20A2 / K20Z1: High-performance i-VTEC engines perfect for RSX Type S replacements and the most popular choice for K-swaps into older Civics and Integras.
K20Z3: The modern classic found in the 8th Gen Civic Si, featuring an integrated intake manifold and balance shafts for smooth high-RPM power.
K20 Transmissions: We also stock matching 5-speed and 6-speed manual transmissions (Y2M3, NPB3, etc.) to complete your drivetrain.
When looking for a "K20 engine for sale," a JDM import is the gold standard. Because of Japan’s strict maintenance culture and shorter driving distances, these engines arrive with less carbon buildup and better-preserved valvetrains. For a K-swap project, starting with a clean JDM K20 means less time cleaning and more time driving, often for a lower price point than a high-mileage domestic unit from a local salvage yard.
Avoid the technical headaches of wiring harnesses and mount kits. All Star JDM offers professional on-site installation and swap services at our Chino, California shop. Our specialized technicians ensure your K20 is installed to factory standards.
Local Pickup Available: Serving Chino, Riverside, Ontario, and Los Angeles.
