Jacob has installed 5 h22's from tigerjapanese. 3 blew up within the 1st week.

If you guys buy from there, make sure you replace as many things as you possibly can. I really do not recommend tigerjapanese.

Fuck bro.... what happened to the ones that blew up? like what did the company do? One instance the guy on here got an H23 and it blew up but the sent him another one for only shipping $$ and he kept the old motor

Oh and what exactly happened??? Like t-belt, tensioner, Rod knock, dropped valve, oil leak....

Nothing because they didn't replace a god damned thing on them.

Replace parts, and you SHOULD be fine, but there's no guarantee.

I helped swap 3 h22's on one weekend, 1 of them blew up. It's the one that got aboslutely nothing replaced. But I think there was water inside the engine, or not sure wtf. But the bottom end got FUCKED up about 1 hour later after he ran off.

Okay, i am replacing everything maintenance wise so i think it will be okay. I think you could tell if there was water in the motor by taking the oil pan off and feeling in there right? And just looked over their warranties and they cover that motor for 30 days so i feel pretty safe. and on the plus side you guys have an awesome rep so if anything happens i am confident it is either mine or tiger's fault. and besides i am going to have to take my old motor with me somehow so after a good test run for a while ill be sure it's fine if it doesn't break. i might just try to go to the saturday meet in orlando if your both up to it... It is on saturdays right?

Oh and i am VERY meticulous about my cars... i am SOOO afraid of fucking up my shit after i drop $$$ like that into it so i probably won't even hit Vtec until after my 500 mile oil change.... that oil change mileage isn't like the break in mileage. Like it has to be split into different driving conditions and not all highway or anything right?

Damn i am asking so many questions and am kinda thread jacking..... sry guys

If we take that off, we gotta replace the gasket.

the oil pan gasket isn't more than a couple of buck though right? Worth it i think for some security and peace of mind

If u do a swap w/o changing everything u can on the motor before putting it in, u are an idiot

And that is coming from me!!!!

[jas_r34]

ive personally been inside there shop and theyve got tons of H22A's lying around.
i was about to pick up an F22B from them for $550.
ive heard both good and bad stories about them.

well im changing the water pump, t-belt, manual tensioner swap, VC gasket, im guessing the oil pan gasket, plugs and wire right away.

i'm using my F tranny and my clutch is fairly new (probably about 15-20k)

I think i should be safe. what else on the outside of an H22 can i change?

I mean the IM and the headers should be okay and i am going to get my f's SRI on there for the time being.

I heard they've got pretty good customer service. If something happens to the engine, you could call up the place, and a member on here just recently got another h23 shipped to their house, cause the h23 they bought...started knocking REALLY bad. I think the only thing he had to pay for the 2nd one, was the shipping.
