Has anyone ever done this successfully before? Need to know if you had any shift fork problems after install and running.

 

theres alot of rumors about it that its not possible

ive never heard of anyone successfully doing it or even trying it

its an accord mystery

 

i would like to know this as well, i NEED shorter gears on my poor accord.

BTW: Morgan, i'll let you be the ginea pig! if it works, let me know!

 

oh well then I guess i should tell you that we did it, but my tranny goofed in the middle of the race

it didn't grind, it just stopped going into 3 or 4th gear, then when I got it off track it would go into every gear but 4th and now the sychros are screwed

why was there a rumor that it was not possible?

 

basically for what you said lol


way back when i was on superhonda (4+ years) there was a guy who did this and had problems like you did, with shift forks, syncro's, it seemed to never work right after he swapped it in

i guess its always had the rumor that its not possible, but more specifically the rumor should be its not possible without bugs popping up

if you get it to work flawlessly then you will be the first ive heard of, and ive been on Honda message boards for 5 years

 

what are you going to do now morgan? get an H22 or H23 tranny would be the best since they have shorter gearings that will help you a lil on the track to spread the power more evenly.

What do you have in mind?

BTW: i heard about your first race, it sucks, but it's ok, there is always going to be a first time for everything, and it turns out your first race was also your first break down, so keep your head up, the next races will be even better!!

good luck

 

Check out Bisi's f22 powered crx A/M in last issue of DRAG Sport.

 

Why?

 

I exchanged some PMs with a guy over on HS a while back. here is what he has to say. I never followed up on it so I can not vouch for the accuracy of any of this. take it for what it's worth....

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">i actually know of two shops that tried, and they both succeeded in creating a seaized tranny. THe shops were Jisatsu Racing in Houston and Carboy Racing in Houston. Carboy actually explained to me what was going wrong, they told me that had built an h22 tranny with an accord 5th gear so they could have a great 1/4 mile car and still highway cruise. From what they told me, the problem was the gears in the H22 and F22 tranny had a different pitch to the teeth on them, and this caused teh gears to bind up...</TD></TR></TABLE>

He was really helpful when I talked to him about it. I think it was Jimmy at Jisatsu that I spoke with and he gave a lot less detail on. I would think that if you were to call either shop they could tell you more than I could since I am repeating stuff second hand...and maybe they found a way around it since the last time I talked to them about it.</TD></TR></TABLE>

 

bisi is using a D series tranny though.


try getting a hold of 2point6 (i know he goes by that on other boards) or http://www.collectiveracing.net i know he has done a LOT of tooth counting with f and H series trannies....

 

i am a noob but pfispeed.com outta colorado does this. check out their website.

D series tranny on a F22????? I'm assumng that he has some sort of custom belhousing adaptor. that doesn't just bolt right up does it?

 

yeah he has an adapter. he dropped a load on custom gears for D series so he didnt want to blow a lot of money on cuswtomer F series gearing....i know he is sponsored,b ut not enough to attend all national events...so i guess it was cheaper to adapt it and go from there.
