h22 tranny on f22

[Gotz Cb7]

So, been researching but can't really find many that have done this. Is this a direct fit, or is there some catches? I can get a h22a tranny from a 94' prelude for 375, but I don't wanna buy it, and then have to go through a buncha things to get it in.

bolts right up

has anyone on here done this, im curios about the speed gains

Many people have done it. Search through the Members Rides threads.

It provides shorter gearing, which will allow for quicker acceleration... and a decrease in fuel economy.

if it's auto then the h22 has to be also but yes bolts right up just swap it no need to change clutch either.

if its auto there isnt a need to change the clutch because its non existent

I was just making sure, because there's some trannys where you have to tap a hole or 2 yourself for the tranny to bolt up.

thats for 5 speed transmissions

ahh, good to know. Thanks guys. I know this isn't the smartest of questions, but keeping the ecu for the f22 is okay, right? Any other recommendations? I know still having the f22 engine, there's no sense in reving over 6500rpms, but there could be other reasons. What would be best for the h22 tranny, an f22 tcu or h23 tcu? I no longer have the "sport" button, which I took out along with the factory shifter, so I think it's stuck in sport. (light doesn't come on, but it won't shift if you're under 2500-2700rpms). It would shift at a lower rpm crusing around when I had the button off with the old shifter. Does the h23's have these buttons for their automatics? If they don't, then maybe installing an h23 tcu would calm down my shifts while crusing, where I'm not sittin' in 3rd gear at 40mph.

let me add to that. yes, you do get worse mpg's on the highway, but there's a trade off with city mpg's (not enough to even it out). since it's easier to move the car with shorter gears, it get's better stop and go mileage. later.

i would keep the ecu and tcu since they're both geared towards your motor.

Yea, I planned on keepin' the Ecu, but the tcu was what I was wonderin' about. I do some highway traveling to and from my mom and dads. Mom's about 200 miles away, and my dad's about 160. Around here, it's all city though. Very little highway. Backroads also. Once I get the Cam installed, and get myself a p06, maybe I could possibly get some of that fuel economy back.
