Actually, I do. My bf is getting the H22a in his 95' Civic right now. There's alot of drawbacks to that motor, but it's a good one to have I think. You should look into it. Honda Menders is puttin it in for us, I'll have him post pics for you if you want. It's a huge motor. lol. it's crazy. his screen name is 95civic_h22a or something like that. :)

Oh he's not getting rid of it. He's had that car forever, then he sold it and just bought it back and are just now putting this motor in. If you wanna check one out though go to www.total-boost.com or h motors. We got ours at total-boost. They're good people. I'll have him im you for sure.

No problem. ;)

[Varao]

No problem. ;)

How much is Honda menders charging for the install?

[99integra-girl]

Not alot actually. We were up to $850 last week and that was w/ a few extra parts we needed added in. He just ordered some Integra Springs though so it's gonna be a little more. That's actually a really good deal though. You should get a hold of them. Talk to Bill. He's on here too. I'll get you his screen name.

[99integra-girl]

Okay... it's GEN4CRX.

[tsitim]

is the motor stock or mod'ed? ;)

[99integra-girl]

is the motor stock or mod'ed? ;)
Are you talking about the H22? Well considering we just bought it and the fact that I said it's being installed right now... i'm just gonna take a clever guess and say it's stock. But let me add that that's just for now. He's got big plans for that car. Why??? :cool:

"the scene" is not reasonable up here. People up here have no clue what they're doing. really! you should see some of these cars. lol. it's so disappointing. We're gonna start comin down to CO to kick it with some of you guys. 'burnout:

Agreed there isnt a hole lot of goodies up in FTC either. Once I get a swap then Ill start showing up to things. Till then Im just gonna enjoy building.

[99integra-girl]

hey Varao, he should be on here in a sec. ask him about the h22. he could tell you more about it than I.

[Varao]

Nice thanks. I was looking at that web page and they have a D-15 Vtec?!?! I didnt know that was even available. Im looking hard at the same engine already H22a pushes more horse and has more torque, not to mention cheaper than a b-18c.

[99integra-girl]

It's cheaper yea, but don't just go for it. I'd search around some more first. Get as much info as you can. There really are some things about that motor that not all people would want to deal with. You'll have to do alot of modifying, especially with your suspension. We're just figuring that out now. But if you're just flat out lookin for some balls that motors got it. He's found some crazy info on that beast. lol.

[Varao]

No doubt my buddy put a B-18 in his CRX. Thank god he didnt have coil overs on it otherwise we would have had to lift it. We had to put some new springs in the rear reguardless. Im already dropped 1.5" so I need to be carefull when I choose.

Yea, I'm probably gonna get my swap next tax season. I really want the B 18c1. That's some money right there though.

[Varao]

Yeah its all money. Ill have to wait a couple of months before I go ahead and throw down on a new motor. Think Ill start small with a B-16.

[95civic_h22a]

hey man. You lookin at h22?

[foxxof]

all the fc guys meet up in the parking lot that best buy is in between the taco bell and the burger king on college. at least thats when they were this summer mostly. they also get together a few blocks north on the other side of the street. most of them are pure ricetastic tezzas and spoilers though. oh ya and shiny pipes with K&N's on em.

[95civic_h22a]

But I thought those were the coolest cars of all? LOL

[foxxof]

i know. i should bow down.

actually there are some fat fast cars in collins. me and my 3000gt vr4 buddy raced a crx up there that had mad boost. he gave us a run 4 our money. props to whoever that was. they even knew how to drive it.

[95civic_h22a]

Yeah they are quick if done right. Thats cause they are so damn light. Did the front bumper lift off the ground when he got on it? :rofl:

[foxxof]

Yeah they are quick if done right. Thats cause they are so damn light. Did the front bumper lift off the ground when he got on it? :rofl:
well his bumper was at about our rear bumper and i wasnt driving so i couldnt tell ya. i sure heard the turbos tho

[95civic_h22a]

Yeah, I raced my buddies 3000gt vr4 too when I had my old motor and boosted to shit and hung side by side all the way through the length of the road. I was satisfied. I had about 9000 in my motor and he was stock but still. I can't wait to redo my sleeves on this h22 and boost is too. It will be harder though cause the sleeves are very thin.

[foxxof]

yea he didnt have his boost up yet on his vr4. sounds like you got a setup close to the guy we mighta raced. i was surprised how well he kept up. i mean it really isnt fair racing a vr4. i had to give the guy lots of credit. he had to have put nearly 10g's like you did.

-- r u integragirls ... guy?

[95civic_h22a]

Yeah no shit. Oh well there were no other civic's that gave me much of a challenge. VR4 is a sweet car none the less.

[95civic_h22a]

Varao? Where for art thou Varao? I thought you wanted to talk about the H swap? I'm in here now but I gotta go to work in about an hour so if I don't catch you pm me. Later

My bad Im at work had to get off for a bit. Yeah Im looking at H22 or a B-16 wahts the pros and cons with the H22?

[95civic_h22a]

Hey bro I'm posting this all over so Ill probably get yelled at for doing it but if it helps you fuck em. I pm'd it too.

The price for this motor will vary where you choose to buy it. I got mine from www.total-boost.com Thay are pretty cool and The motor was very clean when it arrived. It was 2652.00 shipped to my mechanics shop. You are going to be looking at different prices too, again, depending on where you get it put in. I had mine put in at Honda menders. (www.hondamenders.com) Jay and Bill are awesome. And Patient :) It is costing me 850.00 for install. You will need axels (94 Integra B-series axels) It's important to get this year axels because of the male and female ends to join with the prelude jackshaft. A prelude cable shifter. 50.00 Accord resistors for about 20.00. You'll obviously need to keep your stock civic wiring harness to be converted with the prelude harness. This is tricky but doable. Another thing New mounts. (aftermarket mounts) I got mine from enjo. Unless something good happens with these mounts soon I'm going to fucking scream. The passenger side tranny mount doesn't line up but Enjo's tech center just assured me that the motor once raised into the bay will line up after twisting due to the size of the motor. I hope so. The mounts look pretty sweet so I will keep you informed of the fit. I paid 389.00 shipped for them so I can't complain but Hasport sells a kit too. I heard they are really good. You will need upper and lower coolant hoses 20.00, a new timing belt NAPA 25-060370. This is an alternator belt to compensate for the lack of a/c. You CAN i repeat CAN keep your A/C and P/S but it's tricky and time consuming. Not to mention walet consuming. I chose not to keep these. The belt cost me I think 17.00. Last but not least you are STRONGLY encouraged to replace your suspension. I had Sprint 2.50" drop springs and just bought a set of 1.5" 94 Integra springs to compensate for the added weight. Which is a lot more thatn a civic motor. I hope I didn't forget anything. The whole swap has ran me just over 4000.00 which is not bad at all in my opinion. Just know this swap is fairly complicated as a word. But in the long run I'm sure you will love it. Good luck to those out there looking to do this swap. Hope this helps. Here's a link of swap guidelines for more help.

I think I know that car was it Maroon? If it was that used to be my buddy Brandons car. Twin turbo pretty damn fast. There is also a NSX car up here but he dosent run it.

[Varao]

Thanks man that helps allot. Integragirl said you had to do some extra mods to make it work. What all did you have to do? Also a noob question should I get a dyno with my non vtec non turbo scrubby ass lol?

[95civic_h22a]

If you wanna be depressed with your low dyno chart results. I guess it would give you something to wipe with on those days you don't have TP. :rofl:

[95civic_h22a]

Also, the extras are listed in that thing just read through it. It should list almost if not all of them

[Varao]

Hahahah I figured that. What about the D-15 Vtec??? I saw this its cheaper but is it worth it just to pay more to get a better engine?

[95civic_h22a]

??????????????? How much do ou have to work with? Or, will you have to work with?

[Varao]

Plenty Im just trying decide which is better. Im not looking to make the fastest car up here. I just want some more get up and go. I spent a good amount of money already to get a minimal result. If I get a swap what model of extras should I buy. I mean a cold air intake for a civic LX isnt going to fit, right?

[95civic_h22a]

B16A Civic SI 2149.00 168hp
B16B Integra 849.00 142hp
B18C1 GSR 3149.00 178hp
B18C5 Type-R 4199.00 210hp
D15B Civic 749.00 124hp
H22A Prelude VTEC 2149.00 200hp

[95civic_h22a]

I had an integra gsr intake (short ram) on my d16 motor It looked a lot better than the civic one

[Varao]

Coo which if any of these would be the easiest to put in? Thanks allot for all the help man I really appreciate it!

[95civic_h22a]

Another thing. I had about 375 hp on my D16 motor before this swap. It casts about 9,000.00 to do though. I still blew it after about10 months. So however you wanna go. If you want torque on stock motor do the h22 its torque is ungoddly. plus its an awesome motor to run nitrous on. You can run a 100 shot easily on stock internals.

[95civic_h22a]

The b16 the b18(gsr) the d15 obviously too. All should go right in. Plug in and start up. The integra im not sure about and the type r isn't too bad the h22 is the most complicated but I like having unique things on my car which is why I went for the lude swap.

[Varao]

DAMN!! 375 on a d-16 you had turbo im guessing. Is it even worth it to put turbo on my D-15 and just run it into the ground before I swap?

[95civic_h22a]

Everyone does the GSR swap. It's an awesome motor but none the less a little too played out for my taste you know?

[Varao]

Yeah everyone I know is all bout the GSR. But when you look at the specs the H22 puts out more for less!

[95civic_h22a]

NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!!!! Spend the money towards a turbo on a swap. My greddy turbo and intercooler blow off vave turbo timer guages and install were 3000.00 plus thats your swap right there. Yeah it was fast as shit though. While it lasted.

[95civic_h22a]

It's cheap because you need to buy some shit to make it work. Is your car already lowered? If so how much? Springs or coilovers?

[Varao]

yeah it s lowered bout 1.5" Coilovers.

[95civic_h22a]

Here are some pics of my motor and shitty pics of my girl's and mine's cars. It might help you to see the hugeness of the h22

http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/506053

[Varao]

Cool

[95civic_h22a]

Ok coilovers aren't y favorite thing but will help with this swap because the motor weighs so much more than the stock one. I would recommend Integra springs they are much stronger. Like I said earlier I have 2.50 on the rear and front and just bought 1.50 to relace the front ones hopefully it will sit as low as it did before the swap

[Varao]

Jesus that thing is huge!!

[95civic_h22a]

Do you have any pics of your ride? And whats your name by the way? My name is chris my girls is tasha

[Varao]

Ive got some Neospeed springs do you think those will work?

[95civic_h22a]

Yeah you know it. LOL J/k I can't wait to get in it and haul ass down the road. Find my first prelude and smoke his ass. I already bought an intake and still have my greddy exhaust on there so it will at least sound good. :)

[95civic_h22a]

Yeah what size drop are they? Do you have any gas struts or anything?
I don't but I thought I 'd ask anyway

[Varao]

Do you have any pics of your ride? And whats your name by the way? My name is chris my girls is tasha

These pics arent to great. My name is Erin good to meet ya man. You guys ever come down Ill show you around Ive got a buddy stationed up there as well. Maybe next time im up there Ill drop a line.

http://groups.msn.com/Varao/mecar.msnw?albumlist=2

[Varao]

Yeah what size drop are they? Do you have any gas struts or anything?
I don't but I thought I 'd ask anyway


Ive got some Tokinco "I think thats how you spell it" Air Struts already on. Dont know what size drop they are?

[95civic_h22a]

Very clean. I like it man. Your motor looks like you take care of it. I used to liove cleaning my motor. Can't wait to start cleaning the h. You should definately drop a line. Pm me before you come up. who is stationed up here you know? are they a cop?

[Varao]

No hes not a Mp hes just in the Airforce his name is Mike Medina cool kid. More of a lowrider guy though. Thanks I clean it allot even armor all the hoses lol.

[95civic_h22a]

don't know him whats he drive? Yeah LOL I used the shit out of Black Magic too. I'm planning on sanding my dash smooth and spraying it black. No more armorall

[Varao]

Your interior is that paint or vinyl on the doors and dash? looks hella nice!

[foxxof]

I think I know that car was it Maroon? If it was that used to be my buddy Brandons car. Twin turbo pretty damn fast. There is also a NSX car up here but he dosent run it.
i think it was maroon. it was a while back tho. ive seen the nsx (black) in collins. :drool:

[Varao]

He drives this lowered side step ford pickup. Dark red decked out interior.

[95civic_h22a]

It's red imported german leather. Not trying to sound rich or anything but if that's what it's called I might as well call it that you know? :) And the dash is red paint. The doors are leather too.

[Varao]

i think it was maroon. it was a while back tho. ive seen the nsx (black) in collins. :drool:


Yeah man that guy that owns that black NSX works at macdonalds crazy huh.

[95civic_h22a]

;wor; NSX

[95civic_h22a]

MCDONALDS???????? See it does pay to work at MCDONALDS. :rofl:

[Varao]

It's red imported german leather. Not trying to sound rich or anything but if that's what it's called I might as well call it that you know? :) And the dash is red paint. The doors are leather too.


Nice! My buddy did the same to his but its this quazzy pleather stuff. Looks good but he says it was a pain in the ass to stitch!

[Varao]

Yup Mcdonalds at first I though it was a kit car. Till he took it to a shop a buddy works at went to check it out, and belive it or not folks a true NSX. I couldnt belive it!!

[Varao]

Sorry for all the Q's Chris. But your steering wheel was that a pain in the ass to put in?

Sorry put mike cuz I was thinking of my buddy.

[95civic_h22a]

[95civic_h22a]

ok later

[Bedlam]

"the scene" is not reasonable up here. People up here have no clue what they're doing. really! you should see some of these cars. lol. it's so disappointing. We're gonna start comin down to CO to kick it with some of you guys. 'burnout:

Well..as a "scene" its just starting out in Cheyenne...sure there are a few ghetto ricers up there..but thats really to be expected with somewhere as "rural" as Cheyenne..(I know I lived there for a few months).

I was just saying thats its good that it has developed at all..I'm from montana originally, lots of the people there are just hicks with big chevys..much like Cheyenne. I'd assume it was originally the jetter kids in Cheyenne that got things going..I cant tell you how many accidents I nearly caused rolling thru there in my Evo when they were brand new. :)

Actually, I do. My bf is getting the H22a in his 95' Civic right now. There's alot of drawbacks to that motor, but it's a good one to have I think. You should look into it. Honda Menders is puttin it in for us, I'll have him post pics for you if you want. It's a huge motor. lol. it's crazy. his screen name is 95civic_h22a or something like that. :)

What are some of the drawbacks?
