I aint ready for the dems to make premium soooo expensive that I have to buy one of the cheap *** electric fords. Can I put a

Honda N22B1 in my hatchback?

 

 

• Real talk so motor mounts axles, and the wire swap?
• We gettin them biden bucks

 

Would be an import, US never got the diesel.

With the way CA is going they will probably impound your freshly swapped diesel in the next 3-24 months. Because you know diesel is the devil's fuel.

 

First step toward feasibility would be to figure out what trans you can bolt it up to. L series? R series? They're mostly the same these days so it's likely it could be as easy as a bolt up or a clutch housing swap.

What are you going to do about the fuel system? ECU? You're not going to be Flash-Pro'ing that swap. Standalones that support diesel and/or direct injection are prohibitively expensive still. MoTec, GEMS, etc.

 

N22B2 comes with a 6 speed manual. The hardest thing I was thinking would be the custom axles and the motor mounts.

 

Sounds pretty doable then. Still interested in the electronic side. Who's got an affordable diesel capable ecu?

 

Stock PCM is not going to like the deletion of the DPF and associated sensors.

 

I was thinking about just buying a front clip.

 

It is possible. Get a whole car and swap EVERYTHING. The bigger challenge will be taking the newer CAN bus PCM and integrating it to an old analog car. For gauges and AC and any other accessory item.

It can be done, just a matter of time, effort, and money. Takes a LONG time to recover even $600 doing an engine swap from 30mpg to 40mpg.
