Has anyone managed to install power steering and air conditioning into an H22a powered 1992-1995 Civic?

I have a friend who is looking into doing this swap but wants to keep both of these features operational.

Thanks,
Mark

 

im pretty sure it doesnt fit.

 

HCP mouts HCP a/c bracket will work

power steering however, would be a completely custom mount up...and it has been done. are you good with fabrication?

 

anyone know HCP's website? I have a friend who is very good at fabrication, so maybe he can be the candidate to get it done. Nice to know that the a/c bracket is available.

Thanks for the info.
Mark

 

wow. Where have you seen this done? I'm really interested in the swap if i can fit P/S custom or not. Got any pics?

 

yes, indeed. I would also like to see some pics of the p/s.

Power steering works with the Hasport mount kit.

i see so you can fit P/S. What about A/C. The issue here is fitting both. Is it possible with the Hasport kit? Also what is required to fit P/S with the Hasport kit.

 

HCP mang, HCP. They make A/C mount kits for H22A Civics

 

Hasport has a kit to let p/s work in a H22 civic? i heard that you cant have p/s in a H22'd civic without a lot of custom work....let me know. thanks

 

Not sure about p/s, but I know for a fact that A/C can be done. The owner of the shop that did the swap on my car has A/C on his H22-EG.

 

I have PS in my 94 civ EX coupe. Soon to have AC. You just have to trim the rad suport to clear the pully. I also had to make a custom PS line. I just cut my old line (metal part by the pump) and welded the lude one in its place.

dude you have to do a how-to on that w/ pics.....i would be very grateful, so would many other people, you may possibly have h22 civic owners following you around and asking for autographs......well maybe not but i will you for it.

thanks

 

As soon as I get my car back from the body shop. I'll post some pic.

 

saweeet.....and you gotta give us some driving impressions and what not

 

Would u run into these same problems with the B18C1? Or no because it's a smaller engine?

 

why the hell do you need power steering in a hybrid hatchback. even with an h22, the EG weighs no more than 2700lbs...

 

HCP H22 AC bracket in use. You don't need PS with the H22 swap... that's for pussies

 

If you have a Hasport kit, use the Prelude PS pump, it just slightly interferes with the core support near the headlamp. About 3 minutes with a die grinder fixes the problem. As someone else mentioned a custom hose is needed. We usually just braze the end of the Prelude PS hose onto the Civic hose. The reason it doesn't work with other kits is because the engine sits too far to the left and the pulley for the PS is under the framerail.

As for AC, I have seen it done with our kit using the stock Prelude compressor and bracket. Custom hoses were made and they dented the core support so that the compressor clutch would clear. I would bet you could use the HCP compressor bracket with stock Civic compressor too. We will offer a compressor bracket next summer. We do not offer one yet, because we are in the process of switching to a casting to bring the price down on the B-series as well as the new F and H-series compressor brackets.

I got a question for you brian. Why hasn't hasport made any mount kits for 6th gen civics? I really want to do an h22 swap and it seems that i would probably be able to fit P/S and A/C if i had a 5th gen with the hasport mount kit but i own a 6th gen. Does this mean i am just SOUL? I know that the A/C mount by hcp will work on 6th gens as well but i don't know if it moves the engines to far like you say in the 6th gens for P/S to fit.

hcp and place racing make bolt in motor mount kits for the 6 gen civics with an h22...the hcp i think is a little nicer and a much better price..i havent seen one from hasport...but im going with the hcp race kit...looks very nice...

 

Call September 1st and ask for it then. The pics should be on the web page by then also. It will be billet aluminum of course and will not use the stock drivers-side mount. It is a real nice looking kit.

We got momently distracted with our 7th gen stuff, because we were offered the cover of a couple magazines with our project cars.

Oh yeah, PS will work with that kit too. There will be an install article in a magazine some time after the first of the year.

awesome. So basically what you are saying full P/S and A/C is possible in 5th and 6th gen civics with minor modification (little bit of grinding and reflaring a few lines) if the hasport kit is used? Thanks.
