Hey guys,
I just bought a 6th gen Civic DX hatch with the intention of dropping an H22 in it, but cannot find ANY info out there on this swap? Is this a rare one or an impossible one?? Please help?! I really want to do this! (I already know handling suffers and I have to choose PS or AC, I know.. Thanks)
Any info would be greatly appreciated, and if anyone has done it and is willing to tell me a bit more, please let me know!! Thanks Guys!!

 

You have to choose between PS or not. AC won't work unless you spend 400 dollars on a Flydine radiator since you will need the integra radiator to cool such a large engine.

http://www.hasport.com for the 700 dollar mounts that you will need.
http://www.driveshaft.com for the 300 dollar axles that you will need (torque and engine placement in the vehicle break stock axles).
A lot of people like to do this swap, if you check the hybrid section and locate those who have already done this swap, you can chat with them. In the meantime check the first link, it will lead you to more links.

 

Mitsuman90 settle down there are engine mounts that are produced for the car. http://www.jdmshit.com/index2.html and http://www.hcpengineering.com
has all the mounts that you need. And if i recall correctly the car that you purcheased has the engine mounts in it allready.
JDMSHIT has engines too. I know that you have not purchased the engine yet, and they say that they can get a JDM H22 type S?

 

AC will work... HCP has a bracket that they just made and it's being tested on an EK hatch as we speak. I'll be selling it here shortly. PS won't fit... gets in the way of the hood.

 

so the hood is the only reason that ps wont work? what about with an aftermarket hood or perhaps a moded hood?

 

hey newman, is jdmshit.com really going to sell engines? You live in sac right? Im about an hour away, how much do you think you can get a h22 type-s for?

 

Wow... that's a grip for the mount kit, plus I don't think they have one available for the EK chassis yet. Check out http://www.JDMshit.com for picts of the HCP H22 EK mount kit (I sell them for about half that price).... also more fitment picts here: http://www.JDMshit.com/h22a-clearance


We do sell swaps. In fact, we just got in a container full of JDM motors and front clips.... one of them is a JDM Type S swap. I'm not in Sac but near by. Email me for more details.

 

Newman,
I was under the impression that I could have ONE or the OTHER. That stinks if PS doesn't work! Are you sure there's NO way?? Also, I can't seem to get a straight answer on what axles to use? Do you know which set would work? Someone tells me like 2G integra. Not sure. Any help guys? Thanks!

 

my goal as a rising Mechanical Engineer is to find a way to make the PS fit and work with the ek-22 swap

 

Any other good stuff I should know before doing this little number?

 

You can have one... you can NOT have the other. The AC works, and I sell the bracket for it to work... works great in a 96 hatch right now. The PS will not fit because it will not clear the driver's side frame rail.

 

im looking to do the h22a swap in a 93 h/b but i want to keep my a/c in the car. im wondering how much do you sell the mount kit for and how low can you drop the car because the car is dropped 2". also what axles are you using and hw much can you get a jdm h22a swap thanx alot also newman whats your e-mail address

 

Maybe I can help clear some stuff up.. I have a 96 civic coupe with an h22a in it and i have my powersteering hooked up no problem and i could have kept the ac too but i took it off because i hate AC. I had to shave the back corner of headlight and get a prelude PS fitting spliced onto my civic line but other then that there were no problems. I used the place racing mount kit and axles. It works good i beat on it alot and drive it daily and race it on the weekends and still no problems. the mounts have a lifetime garuntee and the axles have a year garuntee on them. I know of a few other people with the same swap with other mounts and hear constant complaints from them. This is just my .02 cents.

Place Racing

 

thanx for the reply but i have a few morequestions about the swap. one i was wondering how low is your car because the car i plan to drop the h22a in has a 2" drop, also hows the pull on that motor and what do u think a 93 h/b would do in the 1/4 and what do u think a 93coupe would do in the 1/4. alo what ecu should i use for a 93 civic dx

 

with the hcp kit, do you have to cut out and weld in new mounts?

 

No... you don't have to cut anything, weld anything, chop anything, hack anything, when using the HCP kit (my car is a perfect example).

 

newman i have a few questions for you snce you have the h22a swap in a eg one is my car is dropped 2" can i still drop a h22a in my car,ho much do you sell yur crvtecs and are they whole complete swap,what ecu are you using,what axles are you using,and what kind of time are you runing. also do you have a instant messenger because i need to talk toyou about the swap

 

dude stop post whoring! i've seen you ramble the same thing at least 10 times in the last 10 minutes. if you want someone's email addy, why don't you look at their profile and find out!? you have to do SOMETHING for yourself!!! it's not all handed to you on a silver platter.

 

Has anyone raced their H22a Civic with street tires? How hard was it to get traction on street tires? (Drag Radials)

 

ef first of all i havent posted 10 times in 10 mins,second of all the reason im asking so many questions is because i have a good as deal on a h22a swap and i dont want to **** up anything in my car because its dropped 2" ok third of all i wasnt getting the answers that i was looking for so if its brothering you then SORRY
**** but i want to start doing this swap by the end of the week ok

 

What do you do for a wiring harness for the engine? If it's OBD1 JSPEC, will there have to be any modifying to the harness? Wiring..
Also, what axles do you run with the HCP kit? Thanks!
