I've heard of a couple guys that have a h22 into a civic swap guide, or at least some sort of outline of how to do it all....like i heard that poison had one....if anyone has one and would be willing to e-mail it to me i'd appreciate it. thanks

what all do you need. Its pretty simple,mountkit, axles 92-95ex-ecu, prelude shiftlinkage and a holesaw to cut a hole in the firewall.

H22EK

and ijector resistor box

i never wiered up a injector resistor box can you tell me how?
BTW 95 JDM H22 in 94 civic p13

bump....ananything else like radiator hoses and what not?

i have an h22a4 for sale with hspt mnt kit for only $2500

The resistor box is easy. Just run the power wire that goes to each injector to the resistor box. Then the resistor box to power. Bam your done. Also i would recomend an ex harness for the ease of installation. Your best bet if you can find one would be a hx harness cause it already haas the egr in it which is a pain to wire. The hardest part when i did my swap was the rear mount. Had a little trouble lineing everything up. The wiring took awhile also cause i had to rewire the whole distubutor. Also there is alot of extended and figuring out all your plugs. All in all it wasnt that hard. Had to trim some metal outta the shifter hole so the place racing box had room for the shifter to move. It took me about 4 and a half days working on it off and on. So have fun.

Firewall?

MPower332TI

Firewall what??? Dont make me flush you for a stupid question with no detail.
Oh and yes the intake manifold is kinda close to the firewall if thats what u are trying to ask.

poison

lol...sent. sorry took so long.

thehatchninja

thank you

hey can i get one too?

heiyu

Its alot easier to cut a hole in the floor instead of fire wall. Theres no need to cut any holes in the firewall at all.

Why is everyone so cocky on this board.

MPower332TI

I didnt cut any holes. I used the place racing shift box. Just had to trim the round stock hole into a square hole. Shifts great

cccya

so where do i get the resistor box from???

Word... we ran them under the firewall, up through the floor. Here are some picts of what we did.....








That's the final product there. No need for any special "shifter box" or anything like that. Just bolt the Prelude shifter on and you're ready to go. Cover it up (I did that to hide the bracket and cables) for a cleaner look.

hey newman, my cables are exactly in the position, only it's more up on the chassis away from the exhaust to prevent heat to them.

problem is, after a while, i sometimes smell burning rubber (like you are smoking your tires) but very mild, and is coming thru the hole that was drilled in to make the prelude shifter bolt on.

haven't lifted the car yet to see what the deal is, but did you have this prob?

EK22Tim

Hmm, I'm concerned with this too.. That looks about right for my setup too. My dp is INCREDIBLY close to the rubber too. Do you think a simple mild steel heatshield will stop most heat from getting to this, or should more be done to keep my baby from burnin' up??

Newman

Weird... nope, never had a "burning smell" problem at all with the cables or anything else underneath the shifter. Everything clears just fine (we've had 6 H22 Civics up in the air and they all clear the exhaust just fine). The thing that you do smell (until you put some insulation lining around the shifter, and cover it with the shift console cover) are the exhaust fumes pouring into the cab... especially when you're not running a cat
