ever wondered what it would be like to put a Type S or SH in ur civic? well we all hnow you cant because of the difference in block design for the ATTS. well imma about to find out, i happend to have own the very rear 1999 BB6 S Spec prelude, which is the equivalent to the type S only with a LSD tranny(m2z4). unfortunately i hit the car and the chassis got damage so im puting the engine into a 98 civic coupe

no i took the lude to the trck(1320) a few time and and i ra prety impressive best time 14.5 with a consistant 14.6-14.7 and this is with a bone stock motor and a VAFC. so i was just wondering what time do u think i may be looking at with the swap. ?

well yea but u dont really hear of it that often anyways what time should i expect? is there a thread or link where i can get so info

n*werk

the sh tranny sucks its not a true lsd

slick jr

care to explain that? because im pretty sure my car has lsd. its rear tranny i know but it works fine to me

slick jr

well yes its been done before but the main question im asking is what time im likely to get with the swap? or a point in the right direction will help

the reason the sh tranny sucks is because its a electroniclly controlled lsd which sucks its not a lsd its a Active Torque Transfer System. ATTS is a completely new technology that uses electronics and hydraulics to transfer driven-wheel torque for maximum traction and optimal steering response.

14.0 with shitty 60ft 2.1 .... good mid 13 if it can hook.. that is from my experience.. i just had the basic bolt on i/h/e

this was done with a h22a4 usin an accord trans swap in my eg...

well sir u are correct the type sh tranny does suck but if u noticed i said i have a JDM S Spec prelude not a sh or type S. to clarify, the S Spec prelude does not come with ATTS but with a LSD tranny. it does however comes with the same specifications as a JDM type S ,wich is 220ps which translate to about 215-217 HP with 163ft tq, 11.0-1 compression ration ect. which is the asme as a jdm Euro R accord. in other words it JDM type S with LSD instead of ATTS. that is why i gave the tranny cone (M2Z4)

14.0 damn well i hope i'll get a better time than that, i did 14.5 when it was in the lude and that was on some heavy 17's on 205 40 tires w/ 30 psi.

and your point is?? all i am gonna say is tuning is the key.. u can swap the prelude engine but you can't use your stock ecu unless you want check engine light, but if u get a check engine light, your car won't run as strong.. hopefully u get what i am trying to tell you.. cause when u swap ur engine to another chassis, its a whole new ball park... noOB..

slick jr

why would i get caheck engine light if im runing the prelude ECU?

n*werk

someone kill this thread.. NoOb use the search, that why its here...

slick jr

dude it a simple question whats with the attitude

runbycommies

why does your original post mention

slick jr

thats my dad i guess, what i was trying to say is that im gonna put a motor in with the same specs in my civic. i read somewhere that type s and sh have a slightly different block design due to the ATTS which makes the swap difficult.
