Time to breathe some new life into this thread. So as most of you know I was contemplating on whether to buy a 5th gen with an h22a in it. Well I went ahead and pulled the trigger. I am a proud owner of a POS 5th gen with a hopefully good h22 in it. Only time will tell, but for the price I can easily make my money back if it becomes a flop. My goal is to swap the h22a into the accord and use that until I finish piecing together the turbo kit for the f22b.
Enough talk on to the pictures.

Once I got her home I started looking around, I haven't been able to dig deep into why she isn't starting but I do know she is low on oil.
Here is why I bought her:

Yes that is scotch tape used as electrical tape (This is on the ebay headlights though so I really don't care about that)
Looks like oil leaking from VTEC Solenoid:

This is what the battery to tranny ground looks like. I saw this sparking when I tried to jump it two days ago. Could be part of the issue on why its not starting;

They did leave me with an extra p13 ecu so I am happy about that

Pic of the fart can that is welded to what looks like 2.25 exhaust system with 2 glasspacks inline.
