im getting a h22a swap done in a couple of weeks, just wondering before the motor is put in what parts should i have replaced?

timing belt? water pump? anything else?

 

Hey man, who is doing your swap for you?? Mine is going in after the National Prelude Meet.

 

yea mine is going in after npm also, as of right now im gonna take it to agile auto, they told me $800 for the labor, still looking at my options though

 

I had my oil pump, water pump, flywheel, clutch, valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket, cam seals, and a few other seals changed.

 

Timing belt, water pump, balancer belt, new spark plugs, wire set. If you have the money new auto tensioner and balancer bearing, oil pump. Alternator belt, clutch flywheel if you want one.

 

you can never go wrong with some new axles also...

Oh yeah, I am doing that too.

 

Also always buy OEM Honda Parts. I know it costs more, but it's well worth the extra money and good luck with the swap.

 

thanks fellas

 

i know this thread is old, but at least i used the search function, lol

Anyway, where do you guys buy maintainance parts for the H22A? is there any compatibility with the H22A1 or H22A4 for things like timming belt, seals, tensioners, gaskets, etc???

thanks

 

yeah, its all the same...

 

you better be ready to spend money. i have this set up in a hatch and its cool but a pain. up grade the axles. you will snap them ive gone through two sets so far in 7 months. change to a manuale tensioner save your self the wait for it to mess up. another thing that you should get is lsd. i have fun with the set up. people will get mad when you break them off. have fun with it
