H22a swap

[Livinglegend09]

Does anybody know if you have to do a trans swap to fit a h22a into a 93 cb7 ex sedan?

[cb7jdmh22]

you can use and f tranny or h tranny... i had the f series on my h for a while but the gear are way too long it gets boring after awhile! and plus you fall out of v-tec when you shift.. i swaped to a lsd h tranny and i love it. but anyways the f series tranny will fit.

Like, the physical wire? Any wire works. Radio shack has spools for about $1. Go for something in the 18-22 AWG range.

If you are wondering which wires go where, look in the Swaps section at the Swap FAQ and it will tell you all you need to know.

if you dont feel like making the wires and what not you can buy the subharness from rywire

if you really have to purchase the conversion harness you dont need to be doing this swap if you are doing it yourself. imo.

the wiring that needs to be done is minimal. its really pretty easy.

I think there are only two wires to route, the v-tech solenoid wire and knock sensor? I think that's it but correct me if Im wrong.

ITS VTEC!!! NOT V-TECH!!! End rant. All you need to do is search and find which wire needs to be pinned in the ECU. run the wires to the proper components and you are dont. You need to get a VTEC harness from a donor car....just the 2 plugs for oil pressure and solenoid for VTEC. You also have to wire in a knock sensor wire. If you dont wanna go through all this just get a p28 chipped to get rid of the knock sensor. Its a pain in the bung hole anyways.

What the hell are you talking about?!
I've done 2 of these swaps and have not had to do no such thing.

AND IT IS VTEC! There is NO 'H'. For the love of god, do your research first.

Well when i order my h22a what will i need to complete the swap? i didnt order a ecu but my car already has a cheep racing ecu. Dont ask what it is called because i didnt install it, it came with the car when i boguht it. will it run the engine correctly?

A "cheap racing ECU"?

Anything fitting that description could only do harm... scrap it before it does any more damage than it already has! An ECU should be properly tuned to your application, or at the very least, be running a fuel map that you KNOW is good.

Any suggestions? Ill try to find out what type of ecu it is but my car is in the shop. :/

Thanks, so i guess i could get the same wires needed to rewire my whole car or is there specific ones i need?
