90-91 accord or 92-96 civic works fine.

i think the jdm h22 distributors have an internal coil. so a normal 94 lude vtec one wouldn't work..

We're talking about the distributor cap and the distributor itself and I went to autozone yesterday and got one and I'm bout to try it out today I asked the salesman was there any difference between 92-95 and there the same so hopefully it will work

not to jack the thread but how do you know if you have a internal or external coil on your jdm h22a swap? it was done before I got the vehicle.

Trust me, Keith used his H23 distrbutor (external coil). If you keep the internal coil, you have to mess with the wiring.

An internal coil H22 distributor is good for Accord guys doing H22 swaps. Accords are already wired for the internal coil distributor.

i know, thats what im saying , if you have a jdm dizzy then you can't use a usdm 94 vtec lude distributor cap, because the jdm have internal coils.
