^ should i have any problems with this combination?

if so, what kinda of problems..
would this motor be to much for the h23a1 transmission?

 

I don't think so, just longer gears compared to the h22 tranny? Is it an auto or manual tranny?

 

manual

 

naah, you shouldnt have any problems at all. it certainly isnt "too much" for the tranny, the only difference is the gear ratios. they are a little longer. i ran the same combination for over a year and didnt mind it at all.

 

only problem is you would have more top end and longer climbing rpm's (if that's a problem at all for u)

 

well i hope its gonna be a great combination!

 

get a better final drive for it tho

 

My friend had that setup before he swapped to a H22 transmission. He swears he could have done 160... He said he was topping out the speedometer at about 5800.

 

Same combo here, does fine, I like having a bit lower rpm on the highway so its fine with me, and still fast as crap! I do have a decent clutch in mine, and recommend while in there check flywheel/ clutch etc, and relube well!

why would i need to do this?

what would be the advantaged of it. and how much would i cost?

 

The only "disavantage" is that the gearing is a little longer, so you'll drop out of VTEC when you shift.

 

i see..
