Anyone with an H22 Swap?

[nonovurbizniz]

How is it...

What did it cost you and what would you do the same or differently now?

I might get one... not sure though... there's one at my work and my boss is awful happy with me lately... so I may be able to get it a tranny and a computer for next to nothing.

well... ive swapped h22's.. but you didnt say into what. im guessing its into your civic, which i have no experience with, but maybe someone can shine some light on it

hope this little info from civic31q at www.civicland.com helps a little....

H22A into Civic information:
MERGING OBD1 CIVIC HARNESS TO H22A ENGINE:
- Take off and mark every single harness connector on where it came from/where it goes from both H22A and stock civic engine. Make sure you label them of where pulled the plug from! This will save a TON of time!

Mount Civic harness on H22A and measure/modify wire to be lengthened/changed as follows:

- Change fuel injector connectors to H22A type and add resistor pack from H22A harness to Civic harness (see diagram on page 4)
- Extend Alternator wires to reach the H22A alternator (match the pinouts)
- Lengthen wire that goes to the starter solenoid on starter
- Attach reverse light sensor wire to the new H22A reverse light sensor wire

O2 sensor (CX only) add 3 wires to O2 sensor and follow o2 wires and change to Prelude O2 sensor connector. And wire the following:

- WHT/RED wire goes to D14 which is O2 Sensor Input
- ORG/BLK wire goes to A6, which is Heater Control
- GRN/WHT wire goes to D22 which is Sensor Ground
- YEL/BLK wire goes to A25 which is Sensor voltage

VTEC wiring: This applies to DX,LX,CX models only in 93-95!

- Wire from the VTEC Solenoid to the A4 pinout at the ECU. Add the pin to the shock tower harness, and female pin at the female shock tower connector.

Knock sensor wiring: (mounted at the rear of the engine near the cylinder head)

Air Intake Bypass solenoid (secondary butterflies)

- Sensor voltage to the A25 pinout (or splice into the Yel/Blk wire connector at the driver shock tower harness.
- ECU Signal leading to A17 pinout on ECU

EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) System: Applies to all model civics except VX

- EGR lift valve solenoid – sensor voltage (A25 pinout) & ECU signal to A11
- EGR lift sensor – sensor voltage (A25 pinout), ground (D22 pinout) & ECU sensor signal to D12

thanks for all the info guys...

Yeah at first I was thinking into my civic... but it's an ex and I don't really want to loose A/C... don't really care about P/S but A/C is a neccessity in that car as I have kids...

I may buy a salvage title civiv hatch and put it in there... or I may just abandon the idea and sell the engine threw work and make my money off it...

Get him to give me more turbo parts... turbo my D...

I'm REALLY impressed with how it runs now that I've got the cam timing set... can't wait till I straighten out the ignition timing... I may just bump it back more towards normal for now...

Who knows...
