Nebody have a H22A swap in their hatch???

[KO_KING]

if anyboody does i just need a couple of tips for when i get my hatch and swap my engine out

 

[buzzbombtom]

yeah dont put the h22 in it only bad things will come of this

 

[Je]

the motor is way to big the the hatch, you better be willing to fork out a grip of cash

 

[KO_KING]

Well not that expensive i got the engine for 2,500 and the motor mount kit for like 300.00 so its about a $ 3,000 expence

what problems do you speak of? I have not had any problem with my set up. Pulls like a motherfucker beat a turbo MR2 that is pushing 14psi. the only problem that I can honestly say you will have is traction issues

 

[buzzbombtom]

i have herd of problems with motor mounts breaking s**t like that.

 

[KO_KING]

yo rey what kind of trction problems did u have????

 

[SeanMc300]

you will experience worse understeer.

 

[my_ex_is_faster]

too much torque, that's why rey has traction problems. I've heard of traction problems from other people too. Best way to go is ITR! Those engines rock!

 

[b16aED]

itr???whats that?

 

[2kstreetcivic]

too much s**t to change and it is soo much more expensive..if you want the 200 hp engine, get a B18c5....ITR engine, much much easier to swap

 

[rey_boricua]

traction is a b*tch , alot of torque but once you get gone your gone. I will do a ITR for my next project. But h22 are not that bad

 

[KO_KING]

ITR's are very good engines but i think there waaaay more expencive than H22's
right??? 8)

 

[rey_boricua]

bingo

 

[Bangin' HB]

i would invest in lsd and some jimfab bars to help with that traction. also, do your homework with suspension: i would suggest adjustable shocks so you can play with the settings to help control understeer.

back when I had just got a civic and wasn't thinking about swapping some guy that worked at autozone offered me a h22 for free. I didn't take it because I was told it didn't fit in a 93 civic and my dad wouldn't let me keep an engine layin around with no plans to put it in. to bad it wasn't a gsr he was giving me.

 

[rey_boricua]

dam makes me wish somebody gave me a H22 for free

 

[KO_KING]

now i know theres more options or places to buy JDM's but here are some comparisons
