Default Crashed 2.3 Prelude for parts. Need advaice.

HI!

I'll buy the crashed 2.3 prelude for H22 EG swap, because I have only H22 engine and no parts like trany, axles........

This prelude will cost for me 300$. It like for free I think. Pictures will be soon.

This will help me a lot.

I have question. There is worth to instal to EG hach the prelude suspension? I have ESI model ( I live in Europe, D16Z6 engine in standart ).

And I have idea to put the prelude seats, because I have prelude before and this seats are great for sport drive.

Maybe there is something else what can I instal from Prelude to Hatch that make my EG faster, stronger, beter............

H22 will kill your stock suspension, I would look into some different spring rates to compensate for the extra weight of the H22.

I would call a company like Ground Control which will sell you the right Civic springs with a rate sufficient enough to support the added engine weight.

I think you will be getting the H23, 2.3 liter Non VTEC...

Wait, do you already have an h22 block?

you MIGHT be able to use the Prelude front rotors and calipers with minimal work, and they may be larger than what you have now.

I know Prelude VTEC are the same size as Integra Type R calipers and rotors, not sure on non-vtec preludes though.

Here they are in my hatch..



I them.. they are so comfy.. You can do the 5 lug conversion using the lude parts and i think type r control arms.. It's the "poor man's 5-lug". Do a search on it cuz you can do it and it would be awesome..

Ill disagree with that....the 92-96 Prelude seats (not sure which ones were talking about) DO NOT almost bolt right in!

All you have to do is swap the bottom pan from the civic seat to the lude seat.. (I think)..?
