i didnt find any useful information. both motors are obd2 so that shouldnt be a problem unless theyre a different obd like obd2a and obd2b. can i use the harness and ecu from the prelude? ive also heard the a4 is a little harder to get to work. dont reply if all youre going to say is search. thats such an out for people that dont know the answers to the questions and want to have a post.

Did you do some in depth searching and read the h22 swap thread, all the info here, you can't miss it. If your prelude is an SH w/ ATTS, you will have more work then the base model.

why cant people just answer simple questions? it is because the ones that come in here and say search really dont know anything about h swaps? i have a ton of questions and i dont feel like digging through a thousand threads for answers. for the ones trying to help, will this swap work the same as an ek chassis h swap?

Because your so gay I'll TRY to help, I've herd that you can use a 90-93 Accord half shaft with 90-93 integra axles I can't confirm this since all I *** with are crX's but it's worth searching in to...
wiring... thats very easy keep it simple, use your engine harness from your '00 civic modifiy it to work with your H22 then get a obd2-obd1 conv. harness, ECU just get a chipped P28, if it were me I'd also get hondata so when then swap is complete you can tune it for max performance


and seriously, search it really does help allot!!!
