    Vtec tranny's?

    I have been kind of wondering about different transmissions that can be mated to the H22. I have an extra one of these engines sitting around right now, and when i do go to use it, i know that the stock gearbox is heard a little on the high side.

    I also have an extra 1998 model vtec Accord transmission. Is this a decent option, or is the actual H22 trans the only way to go?

    Any F or H transmission will work. The H22's proper transmisisons are the only ones that are geared for the H22's powerband, though. Longer gearing will usually cause you to shift out of VTEC.

          The VTEC F series is considerably different than the VTEC H series. The F series VTEC was made for fuel economy, and to sell cars... not for performance. Nobody with a US model Accord has ever bought them because they wanted a sporty car!

          The H22 transmissions are geared short for acceleration. The H23 transmission would be the next one to look at. Slightly longer, but still shorter than any US model F22 transmission.

            And if really anal about what kind of gearing you want, you can always switch out gears.

                I beg to differ.

                Kidding!


                I have the EX model Accord with the F22B1 motor. The transmission's gears are soo high, I hate it.

                I'd love to throw in a M2S4 in there. We also don't have to tap the transmission holes, unlike the CB7.

                  Well, WE buy Accords to make them sporty... but they're hardly aimed at the sporty market! Maybe the 8th generation V6 6 speed coupe is... since that's pretty much the spiritual successor to the Prelude.
