i just bought a H22 HELP!!!!!!!!!

[Integral]

hello i just acquired an H22, and for some reason it is to BIG like by 6-7 inches. basically im pissed. i have a newer civic so i have mounts for it. HOwever it is to big which leads me to question Y they even sell mounts for it.
SO does anyone have any suggestions/comments you know like maybe tell me how dumb i am,, or whatever any information would be helpful.
o ya also i heard that if i convert it to standard transmission i will save like 2-3inches but it still wouldnt FIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :pc: :pc: :pc:

Thank you :)

check this out. here is a pic of an H22 installed. look at the link below the pic also. IMO, too big and bulky. B20 built up is a better choice. even then a 1.8 would be more practical.

Integral,

The pic posted was done by someone who happened to be around a H22 3g Accord in a local import shop. The pic does not belong to a member's ride IFAIK. No one on this board has sucessfully done a H22 conversion. The picture shows its possible, but no one here has done it. I hope you know what you're doing, and did not just buy the H22 after watching F&F.

Here is the thread. http://www.3geez.com/showthread.php?t=42713

The members here are very knowledgeable about 3g conversions, so they maybe able to help. Maybe call the number posted in the thread, maybe the import shop can help you (its a Cali number).

Good luck! If you do complete the H22 conversion, please post a "how to" guide to help the rest of us. TIA.

Peace.

Update: Wait a minute I just read your post again, you say you have a newer CIVIC. What is the make/model of your vehicle? For a newer civic, maybe Hondatech is a better place to look for help.

Peace.

its a 93 civic, however currently i own a 3g accord. ill put the motor in whichever car it will fit i dont care.

[shepherd79]

it should fit into civic without cutting the frame.
where did you get your mounts from?

You can buy an H-series mount kit for your Civic from Hasport. http://www.hasport.com/Products/Mount%20Kits/egh2.htm

im going to ignore what steceDX said.

ive found out the problem its an auto matic that is why it doesnt fit. im currently unhappy about this h22 situation.

[SteveDX89]

I missed the part in your original post about having mounts. If you have mounts for the thing, what's the problem? Find a 5 speed tranny and drop it all in.

[Integral]

Ya thats the problem i have an AUto matic transmission and a car that had an automatic transmission. and i dont have the money to spend to get a standard transmission and convert my car to standard, IN addition im not allowed to get a standard transmission! :uh: something about a stupid clutch. well whatever you can close this post becuase im just going to have to find a different honda. so lets see ill have 3 running hondas a 3g a 4g and a 5g!!!!! im not j/k :)

[guaynabo89]

IN addition im not allowed to get a standard transmission! :)

huh :ugh:

How exactly does that work?

[bboipinoy112]

hydro. oh yea. fergot. jeez. no need to have a cow. maybe. . . i dont know.

[SteveDX89]

hydro

What's that have to do with anything? 93 Civics are hydro, H22's are hydro. It's not a big deal.

[Integral]

sorry im a noOb i have no idea what a hydro (or a L.S.D.) is BUT i have a great IDEA!!! what is every ones opinion on a paddle shift transmission !!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rofl:
