Default Pix and specs of H22 swap into a EK

Well sorry I just have EK ones on my hand now. I don't know...EG are lighter than EK so if u put H22A in it. The front and rear weight distribution will be more uneven. Just take more skills to go around corners if u care..

whats up, i heard a bit about h22a swaps. i'm in favor of the idea alot, but i heard of really ruff rides with the motor, your car will probably be really uncomforable, it definetely wont handle that well, the motor sits a bit lower so you might scrape alot of stuff with your header. but i think if you want lots of torque and hp stock go for it. you shouldnt have much of a problem at the track with slicks, and with all that torque your 60 ft. times should definitely be impressive.

well good luck dude.

Front and rear's spring rate need more difference they u normally use with a B16/B18 engine. Front should be stiffer and rear should be lighter. For example using front 12kg/mm and rear 6kg/mm's springs.

Use stiffer in front to handle the extra weight in front during braking, and lighter in rear to avoid oversteer and unstable around corners.
