ok well here are the pics project SIR4dor H22swap

First I started off with a virgin un**cked civic foor door. Its a 92 civic LX

I wanted to find an 94 EX 4 door but i have a budget so my budget is about 5gs ok so I found the car in DE and its auto but the body is clean and it hasnt been unriced out and i got the car not running for 500 bucks its alil dirty but a start

So now its time to pull the interior out and clean everything seats and all

now everything is outta the way its time to start the 5spd conversion
doing a full 5spd pedal swap and cluster. So now to remove the tired old motor





trying to get my weight up with the huge DS axle lol

motors half way out
motorsout took me a few hours but i had to be nice since im saving alot of parts like the ac system

After I power washed it and cleaned it up so next time to drill out the PS spot welds on the motor mount since its being converter it to a manual. and Gotta make room for the Innovate Mounts

SO now time to order all the parts







And a few other thing I havent taken pics of I will take tomorrow
such as IE egr block off header and chipped ECU (thanks to my buddy ben wiring king) and not to forget the suspenion morepics tomorrow stay tuned!

 

New inner and outter tie rods and boots


new all skunk2 suspenion


Got rid of that ugly auto cluster and swaped it with a 5spd one


5spd pedal swap was a pain in a** the had to drop the steering wheel and half of under the dash lol but its def worth it to do it the right way

And yes I will be remounting the main relay just got done sweating my a** off

Ok now i drilled out all the spot welds and welded the holes shut and grinded it down and painted over it now its time for the Innovative H22 manual conversion mount


Here's the new mount and how it looks on the frame it says to thur bolt it but Im going to weld since I plan to keep the H22 enginein this car


rear motor mount


Now the DS motor mount on the engine


EGR block off


I took the butterflys out for now untill we get a real intake manifold


ill keep updating the more when I get done puttin the motor in soon

 

nice progress, in for the finished product!

 

SO now for the DS frame I need to measure and mrak where the PS belt will ride so I can notch the frame so the belt will clear with out haven to cutt one of the ribs off the belt which I consider to be ghetto (no offence )

 

Here's the beast of a motor going in and yes I will be repainting the valve cover *red wrinkle* and the egay header lol I know the harness isnt the prettiest but Ive recently started to make my own harnesses and its been going well. I do everything from building engine to the wiring lol only thing I hate is body work lol

 

good start man! good luck!

 

So any pointers....ive done plenty swaps only one other h22 and it was on a 95 accord ex.............

 

Yes, my boy just got here with the chipped ECU (chipped p06 2step engine like shift light and mild tune map)woohoo getting ready to drop the motor in tomorrow im cutting the ds frame right now for PSbelt clearance right now. Let me know what yous think. Im keeping the PS and AC and then a few months down the road ******TURBO***lol. A turboed H22 civic4door with AC & PS as a DD* (dailydriver)....I think itll be cool

 

i normally don't like H series swaps in civics, there are just too many of them hacked up out there, but if you're plans are to put it in just like it came from the factory, keeping the AC and power steering, then that is definitely cool in my books for what it's worth.

Also, i checked out alot of your other projects, very nice work you've done

 

thanks man oh yeah you like them i like to do alot of different cars but i must say my honda is my favorite I had a real nice 94 ex coupe with a b16a3 in it chipped p71 rear dics white with gray j-specials on it but was stole outta my apartment i went to go to the beach with my wife one morning and it was gone my dream car never saw it again cops never found it

 

****in thieves sucks man, good to see you're rising above it and staying in the game though. i can respect that.

So like...you got this thing fired up yet?! haha

 

very nice and bump for a kick a$$ 4 door with the h22. my favorite

 

Nah I wish but fitting the PS and the ac is taken me alil longer then i excpected cause i have to put the motor in to see where exactly where the ps belt is going to ride and then take it back out measure twice and cut the notch on DS frame ill be keeping you undated on the progress thanks for all the good feed back guys And i think you can see my coupe in pics.....Ill be updating more today stay tuned.....

 

Nice Build!
Keep us updated!

 

SO alil set back today...I finished the front suspenion and I didnt wanna drop the motor in untill everything else was done, SO I started on the rear suspenion and i was praying to GOD* the rear bolts wouldnt snap and sure enough 4 broke so now i gotta drill cutt and grind and not to mention I need LCA bushings anyway so I just ordered a set of skunk2 black LCAs

 

good luck keeping the power steering the pump dosent clear the hood

 

so how much does it hit by then ? got any pics or you just warning me

 

the pump sticks out by like 3 inches the hood wont close at all

 

change that broken rotor ?
great so far

 

H kills ALL. Mad respect for the H22

 

what broken rotor? you mean the cap I know thats how it came when i went to pick it up at the JDM engine Zone I got the motor trans harness and rear t bracket for only $1500 cash. Hmmm thanks for the info about the PS pump ill think of something.... Ya think like a large JDM hood prop might help in stead of 3/4' i can do like 1 1/2'maybe might help....?
I know it sounds kinda crappy but if i have to ill put a little scoop there kinda like the old turbo 300zs .....sumtin small Id rather have a small scoop then a bump cause it would like a DSM and I dont want that lol. Even though ive built a DSM i hate the way there hood is.

what ya think stupid??

 

I cannot imagine a scoop on a sedan. o_o

 

you will be very happy about the h22 in the 4 door i <3 mine and i love the "N.F.G" no f$*king good lol......... i also put a pic of my h22 4 door cuz someone said h's are mostly hacked not mine and alll done by me who said someone in N.H can have nice carssss

 

like i said i cant either but im going to make it fit non hacked up and bump to you bro thats a sweet swap bro super clean.... just wait till mines finished i got work today so no progress today.....

 

there's always after work. always civic time
