ok i owned a 98 prelude w stock h22a4 and ss tranny, i sold it to my lil bro and he wrecked it 2 weeks later, well about 2 years ago, i bought a 95 accord coupe with a h22 swapped already. auto trans jdm h22 obd1 i guess because its open deck, with a chipped accord ecu. the guy had a type s head on it but an obd1 dizzy, he said it never ran right so he parted the top out. my guess is the tcm. well we bought the lude back and want to put the h22a4 in the accord with the ss tranny, but i dont know what i need to get before starting the swap. we want to keep it obd2 so we can use the lude ecu, but i cant find a ecu harness to swap out the chipped obd1 accorde ecu to the ludes obd2 ecu. what do i do?

 

i thought putting the sport shift tranny into the accords was a no-no do to the fact that the wiring is so difficult? I'm sure the 98+ type s, base and SH are all OBD2. If you can find an OEM harness and ECU you should be golden.

 

right, but i think he was running an obd 1 dizzy and injectors, on the chipped obd1 accord ecu, but i dont have anything but the short block and auto tranny from the accord, but the lude runs still, so i wanted to use every thing from the lude on the accord. i guess it is pretty hard to swap, ive never seen it done before, thats why i wanna do it so bad.

 

your probably better off keeping the accord auto tranny in there......and putting in the a4 motor with a new harness and ecu. That way you can run your TCM with no wiring problems, as long as that has stayed stock.

on second thought, if you wanted to, you might have luck finding a m2t4 tranny or accord 5speed from a junkyard for pretty cheap. But i would stay away from the sport shift. What model lude did you have? base, s, or sh? the SH had ATTS, which is something that no one (at least from what i've seen) from the Accord forum has touched. Its already a finiky enough system as it is.

 

its a base, no atts.
but the cars for my lil bro, and he doesnt want a 5 speed. and the accord has an obd1 lude tranny in it
