ok so i have a JDM H22a engine, with the non LSD gearbox, id like to put a euro R or Accord type R gearbox in for the LSD, will my standard drives fit the box? as in the splines on the shaft match the diff splines?

 

Yes, I'm using the Euro R trans, all H and F FWD trans-axles will fit in a Prelude with no modification.

 

I have to touch on this. ALTHOUGH all FWD H and F series transmissions do share the same bolt pattern to the block, The trans mount holes are different...when putting an f23 manual trans into my h22 prelude, I had to drill and tap a hole in the transmission case. The accord uses a slightly different pattern ( 2 of 3 bolts/holes line up) The f23 trans has a spot where theres no hole, but it looks like there could be a hole, and that "should be a hole" spot matches the prelude trans mount.

SO.....they will bolt to the engine with no modification of hassle (aside from the Type-SH trans), but the trans mount/holes may need a lil love

 

^First I've ever heard of anyone having trouble like that, my transmission is from an Accord.

Don't know why you'd want a USDM Accord trans, makes the car unbelievably slow.

 

Thanks man, so my Prelude drives will fit into a ATR or Euro R box.

 

Yes, the drive shafts will fit.

 

thanks very much, appreciate it.

 

i've ran a f series on h before, cant remember having issues with mounts.
now running a u2q7 uk accord type r box.
