H22 Question
 

On JDM1.com they're selling H22's for $2300 I think. I know they don't come with a tranny, but is it possible for it to link up to my current automatic?

jdm1.com ships the engine with a manual tranny atached to it. are u afraid of driving stick ? :crazy:

2300 buys you the engine and the manual tranny??
how much is install on that biatch? 500-700?
if so a quick 3k will turn any accord auto into a decent street machine.

i thought the 2300 was for the engine alone. so why is a b18c like another 1000 for just the engine?? or am i wrong?

maxvla....look in the April 2002 issue of sport compact car....i got my hands on it and has a 1990 Accord with a H22 engine and from what i read...(might've read it wrong)...its posting 14.1 in a 1/4 mile @ 98 mph

also it changed from a 2.2 litre to 2.6 litre..producin 160lb/ft of torque....and after some mods (too lazy to read) he's gettin 220hp & 180lb/ft of torque at the wheels.....

nice... still didnt answer my q... who's next??

yea i kno...just telling ya!....

s'ok i apertiate any info i can get.

i guess it's a bigger demand for b18c's, and civics are getting more swaps than the accords that's why.

Who Needs VTEC: Yes, that includes a manual transmission and all accessories. However, I find all of these Internet places overpriced. I can put you in touch with several places that would sell you the engine for well under $2000 US (plus shipping, of course).

Maxvla: It's just supply and demand... Here's another example. The '89-91 B16a goes for around $1300 CDN, while the '92-'96 b16a goes for nearly $3000 CDN. The newer engine is perceived to be better, so the price is higher. Both produce 160 hp, and a '91 is going to have similar mileage as a '92.

NooNz: The Accord in SCC has an insane amount of work done to it. His best time is in the low 13's actually... I can find a few references to 13.3's on slicks, but I can't find any trap speeds right now. His name on most message boards is 2point6.

hey smitty hook us up with the info on who sells the engines for cheaper.

Japan Motor Import
4255 Metropolitain
Montreal, Quebec
(514) 369-6666
Quoted me $2400 CDN (about $1480 US) for JDM H22 auto and $2700 CDN (about $1650 US) for manual. Full swap kit, including ECU and all accessories.

Osaka
980 J-J Gagnier
St. Michel, Quebec (in Montreal)
Quoted me similar prices on both.
Sorry, no phone number... Try www.canada411.com or something...

wow that's quite a price cut, but how many miles on the engines ? most of the online places offer them with under 30k miles

They're 40-50k engines.... I was definetly set on getting my swap there before I decided not to continue with the Accord. I've heard good things about those shops from several satisfied customers.

so how much for the install ? for that price it's worth the trip to toronto, plus i get to see some of my friends there. are they in toronto ?

Nope.. In montreal..
4-6 hours from Toronto.

does that montreal place have a website? or do you have to call for information?

No, they don't have a website.
Don't worry about calling... I don't speak French very well and I had no trouble communicating with them.

haha.. Montreal is more french than english..

Yeah, but I manage ;)

and with my french ? ohh i forgot to tell i know no french, xcept som,e creazy stuff that you learn in 4th grade

Hey guys...i live like 1 1/2 hours from montreal...you guys know how much is the H22A engine with install from that company???

For sure.. Besides, most car spots are owned by immigrants(who know more english than french) or english speaking canadians.

phone # of osaka is 5143824333

damn, there r alot of montrealers on this board. i dont feel so alone nemore :). what part of the city u guys from?

The McGill Ghetto.

Do you know how much shipping the swap kit from Canada to Georgia would be?

I bet it's going to be around 200 for shipping and will take like 3-4weeks to ship

tranny
 

I wouldn't connect it to a automatic tranny i would get a manual?

no ones really answered his question, and i also wanna know, cuz i recent got a 96 accord lx auto .parents knew i needed a car so they sold me this one for 3k (they got them selves a minivan) pretty damn good cuz it has under 80k miles on it. i was planning to get a 94 integra but that cost ~ 6k.

the reason i want the h22a is cuz the accord is pretty damn slow, ill spend say about 1k just on i/h/e and it then itll be at maybe 150hp (if im lucky).

The answer is yes: F and H series engines and transmissions are interchangeable. You can use an Accord tranny with a Prelude motor or a Prelude tranny with an Accord motor. You will only extract the best performance, however, by using the tranny that is most appropriate for the engine.

With regards to the Accord auto, it will be put under more strain by the more powerful engine and will die sooner (but not immediately). I know a guy with an H22 connected to his car's original '91 auto transmission, and it's still going strong a year after his swap.

and let me add that the accord tranny is geared for fuel savings, not for speed
