I'm also looking to do a FA24 swap, so far the biggest hurdle seams to be the crank sensor. I know they are different but is the crank plate that much different? Not sure if the ecu will read it or not... But someone did an Assent 2.4 swap and turbo into a crosstrek and used a wrx ecu to tune it up to 500hp so maybe it should be fine....

Quite a lot of people are actually starting this project already. I contact this recycler here in Norcal who's bought up a lot of totaled 2022 GR86/Brz and the engines and trans are almost gone immediately. It seems like these totaled cars aren't even ending up on the auction block at IAAI/Copart because the recyclers make a deal with them. All the ones I've tracked always say "pending auction date" and then disappears after awhile.
This user below bought one, maybe you can contact them on ig and see how they're doing it. They don't seem to be sharing info on forum etc. |

Just give it time. This will be far cheaper than a K24 swap. Smart people will figure it out

It'll be interesting to see how they hold up on track longer term

That is inflation plus low supply and demand type of desperation prices. Prices should drop a lot, but it will take time. Those are LS3/LT1+transmission type of prices.

The totaled GR86 I mentioned on this post: https://www.ft86club.com/forums/show...4&postcount=26 Got bought by a guy on the Facebook forum for $6600 who lives in Lithuania!!. https://www.facebook.com/groups/3908...00001310874847 We speculated at the time that the pole might have missed the engine/cranshaft or not but if you want to pull the engine and tow the car you can save / make a lot of money. GR86 seats are going for $1500 At this point maybe just wait for totaled GR corolla and get that G16E_GTS ( a lot of fabrication work obvi) |

It will be interesting to see the FA24D swaps once there are more chassis out there and they come down in price. I don't see the engine ever being as "cheap" as a FA20D. Hmm $7500 really isn't a lot for a swap setup that drops right in and passed emissions vs $12k+ for the Kswap just to make the same power.

That said, the paths to make a fairly reliable 250-300whp NA are pretty well charted for the K.

Not sure if people have been following EMS Tuning:

The K swap is more expensive, but only if we consider the price tag out of context. The Kpower kswap comes with some other components like a header, aluminum driveshaft and such things that are necessary, but increases the cost and makes it not an apples to apples comparison to just doing a K24 swap. Plus, the FA24 swap might require an aftermarket ECU. Side by side, the stock power is similar, but we don’t know how the FA24 will handle boost. The K24 can do 450whp all day long without cracking open the motor, and is a softer limit. Higher power levels are not unheard of, but a basic build with piston n rods and ARP headstuds will do 700whp+. The FA20 was a harder limit of 350whp, but it wasn’t always too reliable, as I know, so most people do an engine build. The K swap allows more power with better reliability without having to do a build engine, so most people considering the K swap aren’t comparing the FA20/24 to the K24; they are comparing a FA20/24 + built engine + motor replacement/consumables, if it blows, versus a stock K24. We will have to see if the FA24 has fixed the oil starvation issues and if it can hold much more horsepower with reliability.
