LMAO..

H22 is a tight fit..

Also upgrading the cooling system might be recomended..

Deffinanly need vash in here as he did the entire swap himself.

Don't be scared of either swap.. they can both be done.. are you going to have a shop do this or yourself?

1. H22 will be a lil more painful to swap but i think u will be very satisfied with the result.

2.H22 and daily driver? Yes!!! You'd like to get Place Racing Motor Mounts and Axles..They have a lifetime warranty.

I have a friend with a JDM H22 coupe and its a daily driver, stock suspencion xcept for Place racing Axles.

3.You will need a Ludes gear box and shifter assembly,some cutting is involved inside the car.

Friend Best time with full interior(even childs car seat in there),SI rims on Nitto Drag

the xtra money you spend doing an H22 swap, you could put into a b16. and prolly still be happy.

well with that philosophy i would just say get a B18B "LS" and save a crap load of cash!
they can be had for under 1K. (then turbo/sc/nitrous) with the other 2k. The fact of the mater is a h22 swap is kick ass and worth every penny... just requires more work.

Yeah and a CRX weighs less than a coupe.. His car is a 98 EX with the H22 Swap.. He weighed his car on a trucks balance and it is 2460ish lbs without the driver.

Now he has alot more stuff. When he ran the 13.8 he dynoed 170ish whp and 150 ish lb/ft

AFter that he added a Greddy Header, Cam sprockers and Skunk2 stage 2 cams,removed 2ndary butterflies and cut balance shafts and dynoed 226 whp... Now he added Type S pistons changed the header for a custom one and added a VAFC and Fuel pump...he's expecting around 240whp after tunning on his all motor setup and to hit 12 sec N/A...

[imported_Francisco]

I forgot to say that his motor cost was 1900 + 100$ port fees..so for 2000 he got the complete H22 with ECU..

He told me that the complete swap-->Motor,axles,motor mounts,Lude gear box and labor...everything was around 4500

[imported_weknowls]

well see im gonna have a shop do the swap and they said they would do the whole complete swap for 4,200 for the h22a or 4 grand for the b-16a2

but i have heard some bad storys about daily driving a h22a like the indersteer is so hard to trun and all that and that the cooling sytem has to be changeed and the suspension
