A friend of mine has a 85 Accord, hatchback with carberators. The engine doesn't much work, but that might be ok. Are there any swaps available for this car? More specifically, a H series or B series. I know I would need the complete engine harness and ecu from the newer car, as the carb stuff wouldn't work. I saw hasport sells 84+ civic mounts, but didn't know if there were ones for the accord.

Anyways just looking at possibilities.

 

if you have the money, you can do anything, i have heard of h22's going into 3rd gens, but im not sure, 85's are 2nd gens right?

 

Yes from what I've been able to find out, they are 2nd generation. This is not one of those "if you could put this engine in this car with $xxx,xxx", I'm just wondering if I could make this car pretty fun for say 4 or 5 grand.

 

Also since these are a little similar to the civics of the time, do you think a D series would fit in one of these? That would be fun. A D16 with the greddy turbo kit..your looking at about $2500 out the door and a small package to deal with.


Anyone know the weight of the 2nd gen Accords....carpoint only goes to 3rd gens.
