on a scale from 1-10, would you say this is a fairly easy swap to DIY? i'm not a mechanic, but from what i hear, its not the hardest thing to do. is there a site that gives detailed directions or anything? if possible, i want to avoid $1500+ for a shop to do it. any input is apprciated......

and another question, when will i be out of trial member status? how long do you have to wait to be come a member?

Check out http://www.H22A.org they have a complete write-up.
Also someone on HT I believe revised that write-up and posted it on HT, you might want to run a search for that.

You already are.

 

I found the other one

also on Accordinglydone.com there is some decent info

i did my 96 h22 in a 96 accord

if you have any questions.. email them to me and ill get to them ASAP

its not the toughtest, just following basic knowledge and get both manuels

but be prepared to spend some money on other "stuff" that comes up. you wont know what to get till you have to replace it. i found a few things that were to wore out to just keep on for the sake of being cheap

 

thanks a lot guys...

how much time do you think it takes? i mean days that would be spent....completly on that and only that. i mean like from morning till midnight.....how many of those days would it take? or am i looking too much into it? would it even take more then one full day if i had all the parts?

 

and these directions are very detailed...but is there a place where i can get directions for AT to MT conversion? i've looked everywhere

 

hey i got a 96 accord lx and just got a 98 h22a4 was wonder if u can give me any help far as what ecu to use or if i should go obd1 thanks for ur time

 

yea a h22 is pretty simple. you may want to get a obdI (92-95) h22 considering ur car is obdI, it makes the swap alot smoother not having to worry about that obdII to obdI crap.

it should take anywhere from a few days to a week depending on how much work u do in a day, what parts u need, and problems u have. in my opinion if everything goes well u could pull the swap off in a few days if u have all the parts and dont run into any major problems.

hope this helps, just my .02
