just wandering what are the advantages of a h22 swap over a b-series swap, (if there are any). I didnt intend on doing a h22 swap, but i find the pricing to be a little more convenient for me. Ive heard a lot of things about the h22 swap such as axles breaking like all the time, and people having porbs. with the has mount kits. Also I noticed someone said something about the suspension problems associated with the heavier h22. Im only considering this because of the pricing in comparison to the b18c5. If I were to get a b18c5, i wanted it to be usdm spec. yeah i know the final sux, and the power is slightly less than the jdm version. but I just feel a little more confident about buying a home bread one. The problem is that they are just hard to come by. So now im just asking for a little info on the h22 swap. I'd appreciate hearing those who have actually done either swap, and who knows from personal experience,(the differences between the two).

thanx,
chazz

 

There will be problems only if you let them happen. It's not as bad as you think. Not to be a goat, but search H22 and I bet you'll find a lot. There has been plenty of H22 topics lately.
