how many people out there have H22 swaps in their EG???? look for info on this swap...it seems to be getting more and more popular...thanks

 

theres a lot of them up here in washington. but most of them only run low 14s. they seem to be getting major traction problems

 

had one in mines...didnt have problems that people wanna spread...talk to someone that actually has it or did it...most of them favor it...the nay sayers ususlly do so of probelms "in theory"...anyway...the only thing that i was worried about was the oil pan...that thing was scary low...

 

koo thats exactly what im looking for some personal experiences..not some rumors that people hear or read about....do you have pics?? thanks

BTW: what suspension setup did you use lessen the understeer?

 

Well sorry I just have EK ones on my hand now. I don't know...EG are lighter than EK so if u put H22A in it. The front and rear weight distribution will be more uneven. Just take more skills to go around corners if u care..

 

whats up, i heard a bit about h22a swaps. i'm in favor of the idea alot, but i heard of really ruff rides with the motor, your car will probably be really uncomforable, it definetely wont handle that well, the motor sits a bit lower so you might scrape alot of stuff with your header. but i think if you want lots of torque and hp stock go for it. you shouldnt have much of a problem at the track with slicks, and with all that torque your 60 ft. times should definitely be impressive.

well good luck dude.

 

im really considering it, but what suspension setup can i use to stiffen up the load..thanks

 

Front and rear's spring rate need more difference they u normally use with a B16/B18 engine. Front should be stiffer and rear should be lighter. For example using front 12kg/mm and rear 6kg/mm's springs.

Use stiffer in front to handle the extra weight in front during braking, and lighter in rear to avoid oversteer and unstable around corners.
