I am looking to put a h22 in my eg hatch. Any pics of ground clearance and also post your lowering numbers
thanks

 

Lowered about 2" on coilovers. I have 3.25" of clearance for the oil pan.

Edit: my web server is currently down, i'll check on the pic later.

 

coilovers don't know the drop... PLENTY of room, more then to worry about

 

seen a guy yesterday with a h22 in his civic and he was only lowered about an inch and his oil pan was a good 1.5-2" from the ground

 

You can slam it just like any other engine, just get really stiff springs and run 16's. That'll keep the oil pan a good 5 inches off the ground.

Look at the pic above, I'm on 16's and I have 3 1/2" max. Its really not a big deal though, I just have to go slow in and out of parking lots.

 

My boy has one, he's running 205/45/16's. The body isn't really slammed on the tires, it's right above it and he doesn't have any problems. He's high enough to put a VIS lip on it and not worry about scrapping.

 

Mines on 205 45 16's too. I have about enough gap to stick my thumb between the tire and fender, and that's all. I'm about to make myself a home depot lip, and we'll see how long that lasts. I pretty confident I'll crack it quickly, which is why I won't spend much money on one.

 

I agree. I'm just saying that it's possible. I wouldn't do either.
