Re: Send Me Your Engine Serial Number
I'm a big man so here goes.....I WAS WRONG.
Definitely not an SiR S-spec Prelude. Definitely an Accord SiR. The P2A8 transmission makes little sense. It came with the F23 engine, so previous owner definitely skimped on the swap.
Another thing to note: The serial # from your transmission verifies that it is not USDM. The P2A8 from the 1998 USDM Accord starts at 5000001. The 1999 starts at 2000001 & 2500001 (depending on where it was made).
I heard it was 3 years.

Re: Send Me Your Engine Serial Number
So instead of me owning,
# Found in the Japanese 5th gen Prelude SiR S-Spec and Type-S (BB6). It produces 220 PS (162 kW; 217 hp) @ 7,200 rpm & 163 ft·lbf (221 N·m) @ 6,500 rpm and comes with a "red top".
In actuality... I have,
# Found in the Japanese 5th gen Accord SiR Coupe (CD7). It produces 190 PS (140 kW; 187 hp) @ 6,800 rpm & 152 ft·lbf (206 N·m) @ 5,500 rpm and comes with a "black top".
This makes me dislike my motor much.

A combination of sources: Helms manuals, HMotorsOnline, other H22 owners, etc.
Keep in mind that the "Prelude SiR S-spec" idea was just a guess. I stated it in the other thread. I've done some research on it since then.

Re: Send Me Your Engine Serial Number
Kronn, what do you think about making some kind of list for people that have bought or had bad engines to report problems with a particular engine so that people don't wind up buying the same bad engine?
I just bought a bad engine that had a 4th cylinder head gasket leak and now am about to start up another used engine from Attarco. I've only heard good things about Attarco, but I started thinking there should be a place to cross-reference serial numbers to see if a particular engine has been reported as either bad or even stolen. I think a one-for-all list or database would be great.

Re: Send Me Your Engine Serial Number
All types of engines have good things and their downfalls. Alot of those motors experience the same problems at one point or another.

Re: Send Me Your Engine Serial Number
What's your year stamp?
My data shows you have a 1995 Si VTEC (BB1 or BB4) that came with the M2A4/M2B4.

Re: Send Me Your Engine Serial Number
Or you can look at it like if you buy an engine from a nonreputable place then you're looking for trouble. Given that anyone that posts their serial number on here is making a time stamp showing that they own said engine and have the goods to back it up then you're actually doing yourself a favor it it gets stolen from you because quite possibly someone can look it up and see that it's stolen and/or owned by someone else and lay off of it making it less profitable/more risky for people to steal engines.
