</a>Shortly after the release of our Billet RSX Shifter we started to receive several inquiries about making a similar shifter for the B and D series engines. At first we were a little hesitant, but after some thought, we remembered that we actually made a prototype several years ago. So we got it out, made a few changes, and produced a couple more prototypes for testing and feedback purposes. Testing went very well and the response to our photos was also excellent so we decided it was time to make this product available.<br />
&nbsp;<br />

The K-Tuned B &amp; D Series Shifter was designed with full adjustability in mind. The shifter pivot ball is height adjustable, shifter height is adjustable and the offset elbow of the shifter can be rotated to several different positions. The adjustable pivot ball allows the user to thread the pivot ball higher up on the shift rod to shorten shift throw if desired. Construction is as expected, only high quality materials are used to ensure the shifter will last. We used 100% stainless steel with the lone exception being the offset elbow, which is made from billet aluminum. All hardware, spacers and allen keys for adjustment are included in our kit. This is a great shifting upgrade for any B or D series engine setup.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>K-Tuned A/C &amp; P/S Eliminator Kit</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Part # KP-UNV-385</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Applications:</strong> All K20 and K24 engines</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://k-tuned.3dcartstores.com/Universal-AC-PS-Eliminator-Kit_p_248.html" title="elim1small"><img class="alignright  wp-image-844" title="elim1small" src="http://www.k-tuned.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/elim1small-290x150.jpg" alt="" width="290" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>The K-Tuned A/C &amp; P/S Eliminator Kit has been one of our best sellers for several years now. We are now releasing our 3rd revision of this pulley kit and again we have made a few changes to make our product even better. Taking a quick look back, we were the first company to offer this original design and we remain the only manufacturer that is using a dual pulley design that offers perfect belt alignment and stability, unlike some of the other the knock-off designs that are available. Another plus to our kit is that all the parts are constructed from billet aluminum, while others are still using cheaper plastic parts.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://k-tuned.3dcartstores.com/Universal-AC-PS-Eliminator-Kit_p_248.html" title="elim2small"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-845" title="elim2small" src="http://www.k-tuned.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/elim2small-290x150.jpg" alt="" width="290" height="150" /></a>We always wanted to make our kit completely universal and have it setup to work with a 7-rib belt, just like oem. We are now pleased to say we did just that. The problem we had in the past was accessory belt manufacturers simply didn’t carry the belt size that we needed. To solve this issue, we had a stronger, custom length 7-rib belt made specifically for our kit. This move finally allowed us to make our kit 100% universal. So now, if you have a K20, K24 or even an engine that is put together with a mix of parts, there will be no fitment issues at all, they can all use the same kit.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://k-tuned.3dcartstores.com/Universal-AC-PS-Eliminator-Kit_p_248.html" title="elim3small"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-846" title="elim3small" src="http://www.k-tuned.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/elim3small-290x150.jpg" alt="" width="290" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>The K-Tuned A/C &amp; P/S Eliminator Kit deletes A/C, P/S and the factory belt tensioner from the engine. The alternator is then relocated lower and moves to the original A/C location, to increase clearance on even the tightest K-swap chassis. This part is particularly useful for EF K-swaps because it offers some much needed headlight clearance. If you want, you can even cut off the mounting tab that was used for the original tensioner. Doing this, allows ITB’s and custom intake manifolds to be fitted very easily.</p>

We are so confident in our shifter cable design that we even offer a 1 year replacement and limited lifetime warranty.  If you are looking for the best K-series shifter cables available, your search is now over.</p>

<p>We have had the idea to make a nice replacement Shifter Cable Bracket for quite some time now. While we were developing our Billet RSX Shifter and our Race Shifter Cables, it made sense for us to work on a cable bracket at the same time. After testing a few prototypes of different materials, we couldn’t get the bracket to look the way we wanted. In the end, we decided to get it made with 6061 billet aluminum on the CNC machine. The bracket can be mounted on all RSX, EP3 and Civic SI transmissions. It is designed to be used with any oem or aftermarket 2002-2004 RSX-S shifter and cables. The bracket can even be used on the newer 2006-2011 Civic SI (K20Z3) 6 speed transmission as long as a 2002-2006 RSX-S shift selector is also being used. Included with the bracket is 3 spacers needed for some of the different transmission options and 3 mounting bolts. Now you can replace the rusted out factory bracket with a nice anodized billet bracket that will last.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The K-Tuned Billet Shift Knob is the result of quite a bit of customer and racer feedback. We already offer several K-Series shifter upgrades so it was definitely time for us to develop a clean and functional shift knob. The process begins with a solid billet bar of 6061 aluminum, and each knob is machined to final size on a CNC lathe. After the lathe, the blank knobs are sent out for the anodizing process. The black is hard anodized and the silver is a regular anodize. During the final step, each knob is chucked up on a 4-Axis CNC mill to precision cut in the unique grid pattern that was designed to improve shifter grip. This final step is so critical that we actually have a 5% scrap rate. On cable shifter setup we found that a weighted knob can cause shifting problems for some drivers because the neutral return spring has to work harder to pull the shifter back to the center. So instead of going to the heavy side we found a good weight (5.5 oz) that is just enough to allow confident and accurate shifting while still keeping enough weight to help the front to back shifts. Shift knobs are finished in your choice of black or silver with our K-Tuned logo on two sides. On top we engraved our signature “K” logo. A custom made jam nut is included to keep the knob locked in place. This knob is a great way to finish off any shifter setup.<br />

		<description><![CDATA[Get rid of the "looseness" in your factory RSX shifter, with our fill billet replacement piece. Rock-solid shifting all the way to the finish line.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone" title="RSXShifter" src="http://www.k-tuned.com/release/shifterrsx/ann_KTD-RSX-SFT_1.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="533" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The K-Tuned Billet RSX Shifter Box is a direct replacement for the oem 2002-2006 RSX-S shifter box which can also be used in many K-swapped cars.  The box has been designed to work with both factory and aftermarket shifter cables.  If you are currently using an oem shifter box you are probably already familiar with the excessive “play” or “looseness” that is found in the factory plastic box setup.  Our full billet design is extremely strong and designed to eliminate any flex or movement of the shifter unit.</p>
<p>Our Billet Shifter Arm is integrated and has been redesigned to make fine adjustments to the spread of the “H” shift pattern.  Essentially this feature allows the user to widen the spacing between 1st, 3rd and 5th gear. Note that 2nd, 4th, 6th and reverse gears will also be spread apart when adjusted.  We have also developed a proper short shifter option that won’t damage or break the cable guides.  This is accomplished by making the shifter cable mounting point adjustable to correct the angle at the cable connection.  The shift lever and shifter ball are made from solid stainless steel and seated in a spring loaded brass socket.  This combination of stainless and brass allows the two materials to lap together while the springs push up and eliminate “play” at the ball.  The lever is fully adjustable in height and offset rotation.  Height can be adjusted up to 2” taller or shorter than stock and there is an amazing 90 different offset positions.</p>
<p>The Billet RSX Shifter has two different sets of mounting holes on the base so it can be easily bolted into several applications.  Mounted into a 2002-2006 RSX (outer holes) and it will still fit perfectly below the RSX center console.  It can also be used on most K-swapped cars that are using some type of shifter mounting kit (outer holes used again).  However, it also has a set of inner holes that will allow it to be installed directly on top of the interior exhaust tunnel without the need for a mounting plate.  In an EF/EG/DC2/EK the inner set of holes at the back of the shifter line up with the holes used for the factory D or B-series shift linkage.  Shave down the lip for the shift boot and drill 2 more holes for the front and you’re done.  We don’t think there is anything that we missed during development.  We will let you tell us how we did…</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Our Billet TPS Sensor features a revised design that is a plug-and-play,with slotted holes that allow the sensor to be used with factory ECU's.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://k-tuned.3dcartstores.com/Billet-TPS-Sensor_p_9.html" title="tpsv2"><img alt="" src="http://www.k-tuned.com/blog/wp-content/themes/ktuned/features/v2tps.jpg" title="TPSV2" class="alignnone" width="700" /></a></p>
<p>The K-Tuned V2 Billet TPS Sensor features a revised design that is a direct plug in to the factory engine harness. We also added slotted holes to allow a much simpler manual adjustment. No more rewiring or computer calibration is needed because the slotted holes allow the sensor to be scaled properly on all cars, even cars using unmodified factory ecus. The TPS unit is constructed with an oem quality sensor that is encapsulated in a billet aluminum housing. The housing is designed with a special silicone filled pocket to absorb the engine vibrations that typically ruin other sensors.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve seen and read about the cheap Asian-made TPS units causing countless drivability problems and failures and in some cases even oem sensors have failed prematurely. These problems and failures are exactly what motivated us to design a truly reliable aftermarket TPS replacement. As with all our products, successful real world testing was completed on several cars to ensure that our TPS unit could withstand the vibration associated with semi-solid K-series swap mounts. We are so confident in our design that we are even offering a 1 year no hassle repair warranty.</p>
<p>The TPS can be installed on any K20A/A2 and Z1 throttlebody or the A3 throttlebody from the Honda EP3 hatchback. It also fits several aftermarket TB&#8217;s. Our TPS sensor comes complete with a new gasket and all mounting hardware. If you are having any TPS related problems, this part is exactly what you need.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[With greater knowledge comes greater horsepower. Despite the aftermarket being slow to embrace Honda’s K-series engine, Loarca was determined to power his EG with this mill.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="DSport" href="http://dsportmag.com/browse/cover-story/learning-curve"><img class="alignnone" title="Dsport" src="http://www.k-tuned.com/blog/wp-content/themes/ktuned/features/dsport-learningcurve.jpg" alt="" width="700" /></a></p>
<p>LEARNING CURVES AFFECT HORSEPOWER CURVES, so as Javier Loarca can attest, with greater knowledge comes greater horsepower. Loarca had raced an all-motor pro class car for a number of years. There he learned about making power without boost or nitrous oxide. When his all-motor racecar was sold, he purchased this Civic EG hatch as a commuter in 2007. But a short matter of time brought him back to racing as he sought to do something a bit different. Not only would he embark on a forced-induction journey, he would do so with Honda’s newer K-series powerplant instead of the B-series he was accustomed to.</p>
