i have search on honda-tech but could not find a specific answer here is my question

I Have a 2001 accord ex 5sp and i going to put and h22 in it i would like to know if i get and odb2 motor and computer is there anything to wire up or is it just plug and play and strech wires. I found out the jdm h22 don't have immoilizers so i just want to know if i get a jdm odb2 h22 will everything plug in and i just may have to stretch some wires. all help is appricated

 

for some reason I remember having an immobilizer issue when I did my H22 swap, we ended up doing an OBD2-1 harness to fix the issue and using an OBD1 ECU, which I eventually did a Hondata S300.

ECT works a bit different between the 2 engines, there's a few other problems but I can't think of them right now.

Oh ya, the driver's side engine mount wont bolt directly, you're going to have to do one of 2 things, have someone that has access to a 6th gen Accord Euro send you the driver's side engine bracket from an Accord euro (not the mount that attaches to the car, the bracket that attaches the engine itself to the mount). or you can have a CNC shop fabricate an engine mount for you. If you just use one bolt, expect to be dropping the engine on the frame and replacing that bolt every 6 months.

I've asked Hasport to make a mount, I even offered to take my car to their facility and let them have it for a few days and they said "sorry, there's no demand for that, and we're too busy to work on it."


EDIT: I forgot, the driver is on the right in the Accord Euro, so for them it's the passenger (left).

 

when you rember let me know asap

 

ANY MORE IFO

 

basically your saying that there is no way to stay odb2 even with a jdm motor

 

just because you have a JDM motor dosn't mean it some how fixes the way your car is wired, I think the immobilizer for the prelude is different in how it wires in with the key switch, I'm not 100% on how the prelude puts information on the gauges either.

Putting it to OBD1 just simplified a lot of the issues that we were having, you're going to have to wire up the IABs for the H22 as well if you stick with the stock throttle body, I went around and bought a Golden Eagle IM since I had planned to go turbo at the time anyway. DO-NOT get a Skunk2 IM and put it in a 6th gen accord, you're going to bang the IM against the firewall and your brake booster untill you destroy the throttle cable, brake booster and your TPS sensor harness.

You can either wire the car up for the IABs, modify the stock IM by removing the IABs or forcing them to stay open, or you can replace the IM entirely.

Another fact to know, the throttle body for the H22 is larger than the throttle body for your F22/23.

I'll write more if anything else comes to mind.

 

well since f20 is a f series that easier to put in

 

I take it you're not doing the swap yourself?

 

actually i 'm doing it my self just trying to get all info i can
