Compatibility / Fitment Notes

When looking for an Acura J30A4 engine for sale, understanding its original vehicle application is particularly important.

The J30A4 is most commonly documented in the following applications:

  • 2003 Honda Accord V6: Used in selected sixth-generation-to-seventh-generation transition market applications.

  • 2004 Honda Accord V6: Available in applicable 3.0-liter V6 configurations.

  • 2005 Honda Accord V6: Used in selected V6 configurations.

The J30A4 is a Honda engine rather than an engine originally identified as a standard Acura J30A4 application. Buyers searching for an Acura J30A4 should therefore verify the exact donor vehicle and engine code rather than relying on the Acura name alone.
