I just totaled my 93 Lude(wasnt my fault)

Now i was jus wondering b4 i go and buy an accord, does anyone have a write up on what all you have to do to swap the JDM H22a into the accord, do i have to swap out the whole wiring harness, any mounts, and i know the ECU,,, but if it is possible i would like to have a full write up on it, Thank You

 

S E A R C H


this forum and every forum known to man that has some sort of accord section has an h22 swap writeup.

 

searched through a hell of alot of topics, and i havent actually found a write up on what all has to take place to complete the swap, Thats all i need is even just a link to a write up, Thank You

 

look in the accord sticky thread in the accord faq

 

sry about that, i knew that i saw it somewhere but i just couldnt find it again after that Thanks

 

I HAVE A 95 HONDA ACCORD 5 SPEED. I SWAPPED THE 1996 H22A1 INTO MY ACCORD. THIS IS WHAT I HAD TO DO TO IT.

1. DRIVERS SIDE MOTOR MOUNT FROM A PRELUDE.
2. RECOMMEND BUY A HEADER BECAUSE YOU NEED A DOWNPIPE FOR THE MANIFOLD THAT IT COMES WITH.
3. RECOMMEND BUY A P28 COMPUTER BECAUSE I BOUGHT AN H22 COMPUTER AND I COULDN'T EVEN FEEL THE V TECH SO I BOUGHT A P28 AND CHIPPED IT AND IT'S WAY BETTER.
4. I SEND MY CAR TO A SHOP FOR THE WIRING BECAUSE THEY NEEDED TO ADAPT THE V TECH WIRING AND EXTEND SOME WIRES FOR OTHER SENSORS. IF YOU STILL HAVE THE PRELUDE SEE IF U CAN USE THAT ONE.
5. THE THROTTLE CABLE HAS TO BE CUSTOMIZED SO IT WORKS.
6. I USED MY ACCORD MAP SENSOR JUST USED A VACCUM FROM MY THROTTLE BODY BECAUSE WHEN I GOT THE ENGINE IT DIDN'T COME WITH IT.

THATS ALL I HAD TO DO TO IT. ITS PRETTY EASY I DID IT MYSELF, EXCEPT FOR THE WIRING.

 

how much did all that cost and was it worth it?

 

I wasted about $1,600 dollars and yes i say it is definitely worth it. It's way faster and i get better gas mileage.
