Ok, before anything yes I searched. First let me say, I'm not a newbie(I made a new SN, long story), but I'm not too familiar with H and F series motors. I'm a B-series man(old sn was B-series Assassin).

Anyway, my friend has a 94 Accord Coupe LX, manual tranny . I have to say it's quick for an Accord, we can chirp third. He can beat other Accords and Civics, yesterday we hung with a GSR untill third gear.

Well he's saving up for an H22A swap in about a year, but in the mean time I'm convincing him to just get a VTEC head since he dont know how to save money. I'm familiar with the Z6/Y8 head on a DX block, but how difficult is it on an Accord? His car suffers in third gear, so I'm sure a VTEC head will help him a lot.

Please feel free to share any comments or suggestions, or people that did this swap give me some tips.
Thanks.

 

how the hell can you chirp in third???

 

Really crappy tires? **** man, I don't know how a LX can chirp 2nd.

No, the F22B1 head cannot be swapped on to the F22B2 block without spending a lot of money on modifying the block.

 

yeah i know..well mine can chirp...when the roads are wet.

 

I can chirp 2nd all day long, the only way I can see chirping 3rd is to powershift(keep your foot on the gas when the clutch is engaged to change the gear). Should I try in my g/f 6th gen?

 

all of a sudden everyone can chirp huh? whats goin on here?

 

Dont worry, I cant chirp either, but that is because my tires are too grippy (properly scrubbed in Kumhos).

 

i can chirp 4th. hehe.

 

Probably has a new clutch in it.

 

I seriously can't even chirp 2nd, but I can make my CD player skip when I shift. ACT XTSS with Quaife owns!

 

who cares who could chirp... the guys asking a simple question...i dunno myself, but if it is a 94 accord lx, doesn't that come with vtec???

 

jesus...STEP son...just step.

 

you dont find a freak motor like that everyday..i say he just build it for turbo and forget the vtec head

 

VTEC would only be good for like 5 ponies anyway.

I cant chirp. I'm missing 5th gear.

 

I kid you guys not when I say this. I chirp 2nd almost everytime in my Civic Ex. Occassionally on a really good shift I have chirped third gear. I even had a video of doing it once. Too bad it is on VHS. In an Accord I would find it harder to believe though b/c of the weight differences. Still, if he claims it can be done I am not one to argue.

 

What's the big deal with chirping tires? Last time i checked the only thing it does for you, is get you a trip to the local mechanic faster. So you can put unneeded stress on your drivetrain...who cares.

 

Excellent point. There isn't a big deal at all really, unless you are trying ot impress people. If you are in a race then it is pointless b/c there goes time you just lost trying to grip!

 

You've got Kumhos right. That would be why.

 

Power shifting too second skips my cd player all the time stock tranny stock clutch falken azenis for the grip

 

i cant do sheiiitt... damm auto

oh i can i spin one tire when it rains..

dhhoop no lsd

 

Uhhmmm..... That would be the EX son!

Chirping's for birds........

 

So am I, but my car will get 2nd every once in a while.

 

i am missing that fifth gear too Big James
