The G2 Racer

Need some help in figuring out all the parts I need for this.
Obviously I need the H2B adapter kit, OSD or Bisi?
I plan to ditch my power steering (looping the PS rack) and A/C. Also going to run a half core rad.

Car is a 93 DB2 with a B16 in it. I want to know what parts I'll need apart from the adpater, clutch/flywheel, poly mounts, etc.

I did search and didn't turn up too much.

remove the bs http://kaizenspeed.com/detail....0&NM=

use a b-series flywheel/clutch starter linkage axles halfshaft

ill go with the qsd kit cuz its cheaper and cuz you use b-series mounts with it http://quartersportsdrag.com/FAQ.html

and you need the upper alt kit http://explicitspeedperformance.net/H22Aalt.html

and go to the h2b faqs

LA_HONDAS

you gonna need to do your crank pulley

and you need a h2b header or mod your stock h22 header

DB2 is a 92-93 GS-R.

Thanks for the help.

Your engine will more than likely stick through the hood.

The G2 Racer

I read a thread about how one guy got around that.
Involves cutting the engine bracket.

I might cut out the inner hood skelton and space it a bit, we'll see.

EDIT: What about wiring?

The wiring will be the same as a straight H22 swap. The car is already OBD1 and wired for VTEC.

If you space your engine down you'll end up taking up the already minimal ground clearance for the exhaust and oil pan. The easiest method will be to make some sort of cover for the hole, whether it be a bump or an entire raised section of the hood.

take you stock harness and make the alt wires longer

How bad will it be though?
With the tools are my disposal I could easier fab a nice skid plate for the motor and what not.

LA_HONDAS

gc is about 3.5" to 4.5" from the bottom of the oil pan with the qsd kit

how much did you lower car

and if you got good streets where you at you dont need a skid plate

Note new york is bad with car killing pot hoses

The G2 Racer

Toronto has just as shitty streets as NY I bet.

My car is pretty dumped, I'll have to figure out what to make the skid from.

LA_HONDAS

3/16" or 1/4" steel plate

The G2 Racer

Steel will be too heavy, need to figure out something strong and light weight.
Aluminum might work if it's fairly thick.

LA_HONDAS

if you use aluminum ill go with 1/2"

just a note i price some aluminum 25"x25" 1/2" thick and was $400

so if i was you ill go with steel

The G2 Racer

I'm aware of the cost. Fabbed more then enough stuff for my Jeep.

I wish steel was cheap like a few years ago.

I completed my H2B swap in my DA (1990 LS integra) in January.... Its alot easier then I think people are trying to make it.... I did go a different route then suggested tho...

I used the full Evolution/Bisimoto kit (minus the mounts). Having used the other kit in a customers DC, I personally prefer the quality of the EVO/Bisi kit.

I made 1 (one) custom drivers side engine bracket. This allowed me to use the full HASPORT DA mount kit.

I removed the IAB butterfly plate, cut the skeleton out of the hood (which was already done) and made about 1" spacers for the hood mounting.

EVERYTHING else used in the swap was off the shelf parts or modified factory parts.

I have been daily driving this car since late January. I was even told at the Eibach Show that this swap couldnt be done without ALOT of other issuses (ie: the maifold hitting the firewall or sticking through the hood 6 inches....

I'll be happy to answer any questions you might have, just PM me!

Gen2ITR

Ive got alot of other little secrets for the DA Chassis too!!! Hit me up!

donkeykongvtec

Mad props on the H2B in a DA; What is your best ET in the H2B DA?

projectTeG

contact quarter sports. their H2b was built in their db2.

NABeastRR

im making a custom valve cover that gets rid of a good inch. remove the iab plate also ...custom cover is coastin me guy said 150 to 200 i look at it theres tons of peps out there who buy 150ish red & blue oem covers soo whats a lil more & save a inch in spacing & my car is a ef.

Between tuning issues and Axle snapage, I only got one clean run in....

I ran a 13.84 @ 10? (dont have the timeslip nearby)
It was a high 1.8ish 60ft
I babied the launch and shifts to avoid more axle problems...
I think with a better tune and stronger axles I can pull low 13's to high 12's.

The G2 Racer

Gen2ITR, I want to see some pictures with your hood closed.

The only thing really stopping me from doing this is the fact that I will have to space out my hood. Personally think it looks ugly (car is a mix of performance and looks).

Gen2ITR

Ive gotta put the car down during the day tomorrow...I'll take some pics then!

Bumping this back up again for any more opinions.

I really want to have my hood sit flush.
