    Props 2U H22 ppl

    Man...

    Installing an H22 sux Balls and ass! I just wanted to know from those of you who have installed an H22...

    How did it go? How long did it take you? What went wrong? And how much was the total cost?

    My friends and I spent about 5 days (7-10 hrs = 1 day) I bought the complete swap for $2400 shipped. I also got a Greddy Evo 2 Cat Back Exhaust for $350 shipped. I went from Auto to Manual and all the parts cost about $200. I had to get new Axles and an Intermediate shaft $400 ish. The Knock sensor was broken when they shipped and that cost me $150. Cherry picker was $150. Impact gun (for those damn hubs) was $189. and other tools here and there that we didnt have.

    I spent a little over $4000 on the swap...

    There is still shit wrong with the car... It is very fustrating and time consuming. The Idling is all weird and the car over heats from time to time.

    It was all worth it tho lol Share your horror story...

      Ive basically had no horror story with my swap except for the ecu i was changnig sensors here and there come to find out that my car had no check engine lightbulb in the cluster. And that steve from hmotorsonline sold me a bad ecu it was a h22 chipped auto into a 5speed.

      My swap was 2,150 for the basemodel when i first brought it. my swap only took me 6 hours for the h22 in and out and thats with me bullshitting around answering the phone all kinds of crap. I usually take my car tot he muffler shop i go to and get it made custom from the flex and back. All my swaps go well for me and wiring is easy.

            Mine took a couple months, but then again, i dint really work on it very much, just here and there. The only problems I had were with the wiring, and thats because I used the small pins where I should of used the large pins in the ECU wiring for the Vtak stuff.

              6 hours.. but his car was already prepped for an h22 since he had one in there before. Its not hard to take the engine in and out after you swap it, its just getting the engine going and making sure it all works the first time. Not to mention, air tools are priceless (things like axle nuts dont take any time at all.).

              my first time it took me about a month or so because it was my second car, and i didnt have all that much time, i wasnt in a hurry, and kept having to wait on things like my clutch.

                The accord f22/h22 swap took 6 hours because autozone keep sending me the wrong axles. prelude h23 to h22 swap took 4 hours and I keep every include power steering and a/c working. h22 to h22 swap in the prelude should be 3 hours tops. took 1 1/2 hours to drop the h22 out... shouldn't take but 1 hour to drop it in and 30 mins to workout all the bugs.

                  I had blacktrax swap the H in my car. I wanted to do the work with some friends in my garage but my parents didn't think we can finish a swap in a day. It took me and a few friends 8hrs to swap a LS into a 89 civic hatch. The longest swap me and a few friends did was a jdm ae92 supercharged motor in a oldschool corolla coupe. Swapping wasn't that hard but wiring was the main issue. Took us a period of 5days b4 we got all the bugs out. We found out later the supercharger was pretty much jacked and the car wasn't boosting to it's full potential. One trip to attarco and a better condition top mount intercooler later, we were pissing off preludes and gsr's with some TRD power. Sucks my friend couldn't find a way to hot smog the car. He ended up selling it to a guy in Arizona where it passed no problems.

                  If you know what u are doing and have all the correct tools, a day is a average time to complete a common Honda swap.
