Some of you may recognize the truck I speak of. I bought my 88 Nissan 4x4 for $2100 about 7 months ago. I have put a couple hundred dollars into it. Its been up for sale for a while, there are a few people interested. It's listed for $3000. I really like the truck, but if I sell it I woul have a nice lot of cash for the accord... I don't need to sell it, pretty much the only reason is to put the money into the accord. How much would you take? I feal like I should be happy with $2500, bit every little bit more would mean more money for the accord! It's such a hard decision.... say I sold it for $2700. You guys think that would cover most of an Hswap?

Sell the Nissan for H swap?

The Accord does everything the truck can do....except go offroad. And even then you still got stuck.

If you can get that much for an 88, I'll be surprised... regardless of condition. Still, if you can get that much, it will definitely cover an H swap. Especially if you do it yourself.
Just do your research on where you get the engine. I tell US residents to go with hmotorsonline.com, but that may not be the most cost effective route for you to go. Many of the Canadian engine resellers will screw people in the US (because the cost of fighting an international legal battle is far too great for anyone to bother for a $1500 engine...) but they may not treat a Canadian so poorly.

I've gotten quite a few interested guys
. A few from a distance which is unusual to me. I would. Deffinetly be doing it myself. I know of h motors, I couldn't find an H22 though.. Only the H23A vtec, with lad tranny was about $1900 before shipping. Any clue what the H22a costs there, red top too?
I will deffinetly be looking for feedback on sellers. I'm curious about trusting eBay sellers. I understand anyone can post an engine on there, but if an eBay seller seems to have good reviews can they be trusted?
This looked like a pretty good deal, but it doesn't have an alt, doesn't say anything about sensors.

Don't bother with the red top. The extra cost isn't worth the extra 20hp. You can add that much more power with mods for less money.
hmotors has H22s, trust me... their site is just a pain in the balls to navigate. It hasn't changed since I bought my H22 back in 03. You'll probably do better finding a Canadian company, though. If you can, find one that will let you pick your motor in person.

Hey Mikey. Have you heard much of Jdmsource? They are in Calgary, I can't remember how I heard of them. But they seem to be a reputable company, plus good prices, just over $2000 shipped, plus comes with Ecu, water pump, sensors, mani, down pipe, ps pump, everything. Doesn't say anything about LSD though. I hevtn done much research on them anyways, don't know how much of a bonus it is.Last edited by SASKCB7; 03-09-2012, 02:15 AM.
