    do i need to change the throttle cable for h22 swap into a 1992 honda accord

    i brought a jdm h22a complete swap ,and im in the process of putting it into a 1992 honda lx accord my question is do i have to use a 94-95 honda prelude throttle cabe or do i use the accord throttle cable(i heard one cable is longer than the other)? also what do i have to do to keep my cruise control ? my mechanic been on this for like 8 months so im trying to find out why its taking him so long ....thanks in advance for the help

    No, you do not need to change the throttle cable.


    8 Months? Seriously? There are members of this forum that can do it alone in 8 HOURS!
    I had a mechanic do mine (and I regret it... it's SO easy to do yourself...) and it took 2 weeks... I thought that was excessive! They also halfassed everything. That was back in 2003 (before this site existed to show anyone how to do it), and I'm STILL fixing the crap they did wrong.

    Be sure to double check your mechanic's work. Make sure he mounted things properly (such as tapping a new hole in the transmisison to use the Accord mount), make sure he spliced wires correctly, and make sure he hooked everything up propery. 8 months, you had better have functional AC and PS!

      Mechanics are not necessarily Honda enthusiasts and do not care to learn the details involved. That is why quality suffers.

      If you take it to a mechanic, you're best bet is to have it done by a Honda specialist or Honda tuner shop.

          Not sure on the lengths of each cables, but if you want to save a few bucks return it.

                  There can be an issue with the accord throttle cable being to short, and it happened to me. I fixed the problem by drilling 2 new holes in the bracket. I'll put a picture in a minute. I have also heard of others bending the bracket to make it work.

                  As the other guy above said about the cruise control, all you have to do is hook it up the same way it was before. The vacuum port is at the same location on the intake.

                  Edit: Here is the picture..

                    I just took the little wheel off the f22a6 throttle body and put it on my h23a1 throttle body. The diamter is smaller thus allowing me more slack in the cable so i could properly adjust it.
