ive got a 98 h22a4 i want to swap into an ej civic. about how many hours would be involved in this swap? what will i need as far as ecu, wiring harnesses/jumper harnesses, shifter cables, and anything else needed? any help is appreciated.

mikegeezy

beware youll probably be flamed for this one use the search button is what everyone is going to tell you good luck.

_unclejuice

why is it so hard for people to answer questions?

_unclejuice

i didnt find any useful information. both motors are obd2 so that shouldnt be a problem unless theyre a different obd like obd2a and obd2b. can i use the harness and ecu from the prelude? ive also heard the a4 is a little harder to get to work. dont reply if all youre going to say is search. thats such an out for people that dont know the answers to the questions and want to have a post.

high_revs

depends, i'll do it in 2-3 hrs from scratch, but i've done like 20....depends on your experience, to be on the safe side, im gonna say a day

_unclejuice

thanks. what about axels? and for the ecu and wiring, i have the entire prelude i got the motor from. what can i take off it and what will i have to use from other cars or oder?

_unclejuice

another newb question on top of the others. is theyre any difference in the ej and ek chassis that would stop me from using an ek h22 swap guide? and am i going to have a problem with the a4?

Did you do some in depth searching and read the h22 swap thread, all the info here, you can't miss it. If your prelude is an SH w/ ATTS, you will have more work then the base model.

high_revs

yeah there's a lot of info on this...what shell is the swap going into?

ha ha, did I get ya??

_unclejuice

why cant people just answer simple questions? it is because the ones that come in here and say search really dont know anything about h swaps? i have a ton of questions and i dont feel like digging through a thousand threads for answers. for the ones trying to help, will this swap work the same as an ek chassis h swap?

Because your so gay I'll TRY to help, I've herd that you can use a 90-93 Accord half shaft with 90-93 integra axles I can't confirm this since all I *** with are crX's but it's worth searching in to...
wiring... thats very easy keep it simple, use your engine harness from your '00 civic modifiy it to work with your H22 then get a obd2-obd1 conv. harness, ECU just get a chipped P28, if it were me I'd also get hondata so when then swap is complete you can tune it for max performance


and seriously, search it really does help allot!!!

_unclejuice

thanks for your childish but useful thoughts. i found hasport axels that use the preludes intermediate. ill see what i can find as far as ecus go.

what? bro all hasport axles are is h22 inners with civic/integra outer...same thing we do except theirs might just be stronger...you would have to use prelude halfshaft either way..

_unclejuice

so would the original civic outters on the car now work with the prelude inners i have?

high_revs

no, you need integra da axles

_unclejuice

sweet. ive got a 90 ls da in the driveway. appreciate the help. probably be more questions to come as the swap progesses. do they have rep on this site?

high_revs

what do you mean rep?

_unclejuice

a rating system for members. on 7thgencivic we have positive and negative rep. like ebay feedback.

high_revs

no i dont think so....
