ok well first off i have a 97 accord ex coupe and im looking to get rid of the f22 and swapping in a euro r h22 or a h23 vtec..... heres my question what would be the best route to go? im leaning towards the euro r but a couple of buddies of mine where telling me to do a h23 vtec swap and put a euro r tranny and intake manifold on the h23?? im just looking to upgrade from the f22 because i want some more get up and go... what route would you guys take the h23 or euro r?

 

What is your budget and who will be doing the swap?

Ether or will end up giving you just about the same output. Really comes down to your preference and how much you want to spend.

 

my brother in law he is a master mechanic and im looking to spend no more then 3500

 

A little turbocharger setup for that F22 would certainly give ya a little get up.

 

i considered boosting it but i rather have a h series now and boost the h later down the road

 

OK so is labour free????

So do you know how much will it cost to get one of these motors to your door? Add basic maintenance costs and additional parts on top of that, IE, mounts, gaskets, seals, timing belts and fluids.

Are you looking to do any sort of upgrades or tuning or just run a stock ECU/EMS?

In my opinion you could toss a coin to pick between ether of these engines if cost is no factor.

From Hmotorsonline your looking at approx. $2800+ shipping for a complete H22A (Euro R w/LSD trans, cables, mounts and ECU. Or $2000+ shipping for an H23A VTEC long block with LSD trans and ECU. Probably won't need the trans cables if you already have a 5 spd Accord.

 

yea he is not charging me to do it but im gonna be there helping as well and he works at a honda dealer here in az and i can get the fluids for free from him but if i go with the euro r im gonna order it from hmotors the complete swap is 2800 plus shipping and yea im just gonna run the stock ecu

 

anybody on here ever had a euro r in a cd5/7 ???

 

There are quite a few built H22A Accords around. You could also try hondasociety.com. There are quite a few H22A, H23A VTEC & F20B swapped CD Accord owners on that site as well. Boosted and N/A

 

sweet thanks dude do you know any other reputable sites besides hmo that i can order an engine from??
and yes my cd7 is a 5 speed

 

Most of the guys online that post about doing swaps swear by Hmotors. I wouldn't be able to suggest any other from personal experience. I have never purchased an engine online.

 

yeah im kind of skeptical about ordering an engine online but iv heard nothing but good things about hmotors but i would prefer if i could buy locally but i havent found any places that ever have the euro r...... if anything i guess il just take a chance and order from hmo

 

hi quick question will the h22 intake manifold fit f20b head am looking to get a s2pro am allso doing a swap
