Not new to the forums but forgot my login creds since i've been out of the honda scene for 2+ years. I sold my 4th gen about 2.5 years ago after my the birth of my daughter and wanting to buy a house. A sad day it was to watch it go. Fast forward to 2010 while checking my local craiglist ad's i stumbled upon my old prelude. I contacted the guy i sold it too and gave him an offer. So now i once agian own my 1993 prelude vtec with out the engine as the previous owner i sold it to boosted it on type s pistons( i don't know why). While i save up some money for a h22 i'm going to install my jdm digital climate control(anybody know where i can get a jdm prelude air mix motor from), 5th gen 5 lug swap, and some other little projects that i still have parts left over from when I orginally had her.

My f23 block that i'm going to rebuild for the g23 swap.

 

Man! A G23 hybrid? That's awesome! Which head are you going with?

 

wow man I didnt know the f23 pistons go in that order.
Does that mean h22 head wont work on it?

 

Looks like a great project. You should make a build thread. I'd definitely love to follow progress, especially on this car with this engine setup. Good luck and keep us updated.

 

I'm actully going to go with a usdm h22a1 head with either type s cams or crower stage 2 turbo cams. I'm just piecing the g23 vtec together till i can get some more money saved up to build and h23 vtec with a few goodies.

When i moved i lightly put everything back on the block to keep track of everything, before I moved I never got around to getting the pistons out of the block. As far as i know they go just like a normal h block would. check sam1am26, pirate and prelittlelude threads as they were the ones who pioneered the g series hybrids.

I think i might once i source some more parts that i need. Its just going to take some time i have a 3 year old daughter that wants everything and own a house so when i can get parts its maybe 2-3 at a time at most. At the current moment though I am tring to complete my jdm digital climate control so i'll have some pics up on that within the next couple days. I guess i could make it a complete over haul build thread.

On another topic i searched this and used to have the parts and write up saved but i can't find either. I need the write up or list for the diy stainless steel clutch line. would be much appreicated
