H22A1 is the code for a USDM 4th-gen Prelude VTEC engine, no?
And yes, B20 is is the code for the late-model CRV's - new CRV's have a K-series

I'll add my question under this heading because it fits... Me and my friend were arguing: On the cheap adjustable coilovers (ground control, matrix, what have you; coilovers that are sleeves and springs) the shorter 2 springs go in the front or the rear? Both of our cars bounce like ****, but I think his is worse and he has the shorter ones up front...Im probly a dumbass but hey i wanna know whos right.

the question was "the shorter 2 springs go in the front or the rear?"


i think the shorter ones go in front because that would be where most of the wheel space is (gap) so u would essentially want a smaller spring to drop the car lower in the front...but at the same time u would want to drop the rear but not as much because the rear end is already has less of a wheel gap than the front essentially making u place the larger spring (more like stock spring height) in the back...damn if im right then honda-tech has educated me very very well lol
