Honda’s J-series can be called the crown jewel of the company’s motors. J32 – V-shaped in its layout, absolutely uncharacteristic for Honda. At the same time, they are a real center of concentration of all kinds of technologies and innovations. The J32 engine line was originally intended only for expensive cars or for top versions of the most promising (popular) models. Continue reading Engine Honda J32A

Engine Honda H23A
The displacement of the H23 units is 2258 cubic centimeters. The variable valve timing system is carried out using DOHC VTEC technology, developed by Honda engineers. It is equipped with two camshafts with an additional cam that increases pressure on both valves. A toothed belt acts as a drive for the gas distribution mechanism. Continue reading Engine Honda H23A
Engine Honda J30A
The J30A series engines have been developed for premium vehicles targeting the US market. The J series has become not quite familiar to Honda. Customers are accustomed to in-line cylinders on this brand, but the J Series is V-shaped. Continue reading Engine Honda J30A
Engine Honda J35A
In 1999, based on the J32 engine, Honda minders developed a new 3.5-liter J35A engine. It was based on a 235mm high V-block with six cylinders. The block had a forged crankshaft with a piston stroke of 93 mm and its compression height of 30 mm. The cylinder diameter was 89 mm. In addition, lightweight connecting rods with a length of 158.5 mm were present in the design. Continue reading Engine Honda J35A
Engine Honda L13A/L13B
Honda’s L-motors re-characterize the old philosophy that the engine should be economical and environmentally friendly. Originally, these Honda engines appeared in Fit cars, a super hit from Honda that opened a new page in the Japanese automotive industry. The popularity of Fit and fit-like cars was so high that few other models could rival it, and the new engine series played a leading role in this. Continue reading Engine Honda L13A/L13B
Engine Honda L15A/L15B
L15A initially did not differ much from L13A – the same layout, the same 8 spark plugs. Over time, an “upgrade” version with the iVTEC system appeared. The number of candles decreased to standard, but the candles themselves became iridium (improved spark, increased service life), and space for VTEC cams on the camshaft was also freed up – before that, the candles interfered. Continue reading Engine Honda L15A/L15B
Engine Honda R18A
In 2006, a new R18 engine was used on the Civic 8 from Honda, which replaced the D17 engine, and on this “D” -series were no longer installed on Honda cars. The timing for the new engine is driven by a chain, the head has not been changed – all the same 16 valves and 1 camshaft, but the intelligent iVTEC system and dual-mode intake have already been added. Continue reading Engine Honda R18A
Engine Honda B18C / B18B
It was in the engines of this series that the VTEC system was first used. With a 1.8-liter engine, the story was slightly different. Honda decided to experiment with a B-motor without VTEC. This is how the B18B engine appeared, which was of a larger volume (correspondingly with a better start), but absolutely normal when reaching the VTEC zone. Continue reading Engine Honda B18C / B18B
Engine Honda D17A
The D17A engine was designed specifically for “heavy” vehicles and was used on two models – the Honda Civic EU-ES and the Honda Srteam. The results can be called positive at a stretch. And it would be even more accurate to call this engine “disposable” – despite the overall reliability of the design, the unit has become more capricious, demanding on the quality of spare parts and the level of car services.

Engine Honda F23A
F23A engines are 4-cylinder in-line gasoline engines. They were intended for widespread use – in Japan, China, Europe and North America. Like other engines on Honda’s F-Series, they power Honda vehicles used for family travel or just for easy transportation. The gas distribution system is carried out according to the SOHC VTEC scheme.
