I know that this is the same as the EG swap in the FAQ, but I am having a hard time weeding through the 100+ pages of comments, discussion and BS in that thread. I just have a few questions that I am hoping you all can help me out with.

1. I want to keep PS. What do I need exactly to do so? 97-01 pump and nothing else? Lines? Brackets?

2. I want to keep AC. What do I need to keep it? LS compressor? H22 Compressor? What lines? Brackets? Do I use the stock Radiator and fans?

3. I already have AVID mounts, are these any good? What should I expect from them?

4. I am using self made custom mounts with 90-93 Teg outer and 92-96 Prelude outers. Is that correct?

5. I am going to use the stock LS harness and modify it for the H22a?

6. I have to drop the car over the engine?

7. I have to trim the passenger tranny mount?

8. Rather than adding a resistor box for the Injectors could I run the H22a4 injectors instead? (they don't require a box) I would just have to change the LS injector plugs for the H22a4 injector plugs right?

9. I am running a chipped p28 so it will get tuned on crome

10. Is there anything I am forgetting here? Any advise recomendations would be great.

Thanks everyone for your help and please bump this if you read it.

 

 

1. I want to keep PS. What do I need exactly to do so? 97-01 pump and nothing else? Lines? Brackets?

Use the 97+ Prelude Power Steering Pump & Bracket. Modify Civic Power Steering Lines to Prelude Pump.

2. I want to keep AC. What do I need to keep it? LS compressor? H22 Compressor? What lines? Brackets? Do I use the stock Radiator and fans?

Buy a HCP H22 AC Bracket. It bolts the 92+ Civic SOHC AC Compressor To Bracket (Integra any year or 99-00 Civic Si AC Compressor Will Not Work).

Use a Dayco 5050360 or Goodyear Gatorback 4040410 belt

3. I already have AVID mounts, are these any good? What should I expect from them?

They will work just fine.

4. I am using self made custom mounts with 90-93 Teg outer and 92-96 Prelude outers. Is that correct?
?????

5. I am going to use the stock LS harness and modify it for the H22a?

If dont right it should be fine

6. I have to drop the car over the engine?
No, the motor can be dropped in from the the top. You just have to angle it and drop the tranny side in first.

7. I have to trim the passenger tranny mount?

Just the tips



8. Rather than adding a resistor box for the Injectors could I run the H22a4 injectors instead? (they don't require a box) I would just have to change the LS injector plugs for the H22a4 injector plugs right?
Correct, if your going to use your LS harness

9. I am running a chipped p28 so it will get tuned on crome
correct

Should I use an Integra Radiator (planning to get an Aluminum if so) or is it possible to use a EG Civic half sized and still keep AC?

Thanks again

 

 

 

to the top, more info on AC?

 

Yeah the half size readiator will work just fine, Many people including me have been using it for years and it works just fine. About the A/C, u need the HCP a/c bracket which relocates the a/c pump. If u want anymore information, I think it was Lak8 who had a great thread on a howto put a/c in an integra/civic with an h22, it was pretty good. Just try searching for it.

 

#1 Use the prelude PS pump and bracket. You'll need to put your stock PS line. Then get the end of the prelude line (long enough that you can slide a barbed fitting into and clamp it). There is a hard line inside the rubber hose. Just cut it if you need to, but make sure it's not sharp or it will eat away at the rubber housing over time.
You're grafting the two lines together.

#4, mounts? you mean axles?
You want to use the 90-93 integra axles. Then remove the inner joints, rollers, spider gear and boot and throw on the corresponding parts from the prelude axles. You're using the lude inner joints for compatibility, and the teg axles for length.
The spider gear is held in with a snap ring that can be a pain. Just plan ahead and buy some grease to repack the joint, and have a ton of rags handy while working on them. Clamping the middle of the shaft in a vice with it pointing up is the best way to deal with them.

#5 for the harness, before you remove it from your motor, use some masking tape and mark what each sensor is. You'll have to extend the wiring for the alternator. Aside from that, depending on the year motor, obd1 and obd2 use different knock sensor plugs.
Other than that, everything should be pretty straight forward. Make sure you have the extra wiring for the external coil.

 

Hey,hows things going with your swap??

Im doing the same swap...95 DC wit an H22....im pretty much done,still have to get the clutch and shifter **** finished....thats all.

G/L with your swap.....

Subscribed..for a little bit.

 

I've also got a 95 ls with a jdm h22a

I run avid mounts....they do the job but I do have a bit of vibration.

subscribed

 

I've got an h22a in my 98 teg, if u guys got any questions I'd be glad to answer em. I also got alot of pics of installs, not of everything, but of most things.

 

yeah I'm interested in some pics! captain134@gmail.com

what mounts did you use?

 

I just finished my swap yesterday. I will have pics up soon.

Read my Project thread in my sig!

 

i'm using HCP mounts, I'm not getting much vibration at all. Except when I accelerate in the lower gears at midrange, I'm thinking it's an axle problem. I'm using stage 1 DSS axles. Post up some pics honda_fanatic! It takes me awhile to post up pics cause of really slow upload speed, so if there's anything u guys wanna see in particular let me know and I'll try and post em up or email em.

 

 

whats up with your passenger side trans mount?

 

what about it? Uses the torque mount location
