Default h22 eg question...ASAP!

People at jspecauto are telling me that to put an h22 in my eg i need a 94+ gsr wiing harness and a 94+ gsr radiator. Is this true or can i use the prelude harness and my stock radiator?

well you can use your stock radiator, or del sol dual core radiator, you will need the gsr wiring harness and you will have to make some connections longer as well.

you dont need the gsr harness if you are capable of modifying the harness you arleady have.

extend plugs to get them where they need to go. basically very similar to what you would do with teh gsr harness, except you didnt jstu spend money to buy a new harness to modify. usually extending distrbutor wires, alternator wires and af ew other things is about it.

with my 94 hatch i usually aim a lot higher than sentras. when i go to the track i usually race domestcs with v8s, such as last trip to the track i raced a vette, early 80s mustang with a lot of nitrous, a pinto with a 351 and so on....i run pretty well with all of them when im on slicks.

im pretty sure that you cant use the prelude harness...its plugs are different especially if you have a jdm...now if you use your stock ex harness then you will have no problem with the harness just extend a few wires.

u can't use a prelude harness. its completely different. U can use a gsr or civic harness. both will nee do be modified to fit the H22. The gsr harness will already have the vtec, vtec pressure, knock, and IABs, but u'll still have to do quite a bit of modifications to it. not worth it in my opinion cuz ur gonna be paying a premium for a harness that ur still going to have to cut up. Start with with just a stock civic harness and use the plugs off the prelude harness to make the civic harness compatible. read the FAQ at the top of the page.

i used my stock del sol s harness and single core radiator in my swap. A single core radiator will only work if its in good shape though.

the OBD1 GSR harness is the easiest harness to use no doubt. I would agree that it may cost more however little work is needed to make the harness work. You would just need to extend the alternator wires and starter signal, the rest all plug right in to the h22 provided they are both OBD1.

an SOHC OBD1 vtec harness is pretty easy to use as well.
