[Fox619]

i was wondering if any body has upgraded their 3rd grn. accord engine to say a 98 civics Si's engine because I've been wanting to do it my self and I would apretiate any pics or suggestions on this project i want to start. oh yeah i'm new here. but i like the site alot.

[anchovies]

Yes, look around you'll find some. Look in the Engine section also.
And welcome to 3geez.

Welcome to the board. Swapping engines? As long as it's a 4 cylinder engine then it should go in without too much trouble. Look for oldschoolswap. He has put a B16 in his car before. A 98 Civic Si engine is a B16 as well.

[Fox619]

Thanx!! Blue i'll look into that.

That is an OBD2 engine.. It's a very complex swap wiring wise.. I would stay away from that.. B16a is a simple swap compared to the B16b

Do a JDM H22, 200 hp stock.

I had a guy look into a swap for me- F23 motor with automatic trans., custom turbo set up and new computer. He would do everything for like $4000. Thats from mounts to wiring to tuning and running.

don't tell him that. next he'll be asking about H22s and Kseries swaps. what you really should do is just use the search button.

[carotman]

it's a LOT easier.

[88 Accord DX]

this dude i work with has an h22 in his 4th gen accord. im thinking about selling my car for a 4th gen just because of the avalability of engine upgrades and body upgrades.

[carotman]

The Civic has more parts and swap availability.. and if you take a placeracing kit, you'll have as much choice as a civic.

[88 Accord DX]

no i would never get a civic. there is a nice 3rd gen civic hatch that lives by me but i dont like civcs. i gotta stay true to the accords.

You can dump an H22a in a first gen odyssey, prolly beat a stock 3gee, lol.

[88' Accord Ltd]

Dosen't the H22 drop right into the 4th gen?

[BensAccordLxi]

www.collectiveracing.net Scott has an H22 powered 4th Gen. he could answer all your questions. His car runs 13's all motor with interior.
