JDM H22A 89 Accord Se-i Sedan Swap Completed & Running!

[H22AccordSE-IV]

Thanks Accordingly. Your whip looks tight!!! I envy how clean it looks. I'm looking to get mine fully restored but it's gonna cost me about 4Gs. I need new rockers, quarters, fenders, re-bars, rear bumper, all window mouldings, hood, trunk lid etc. I've got a couple holes in the trunk that need patching and one under the front cowel that's causing a leak under the passenger side dash. My floor and underbody need some work too. Hopefully I'll have the cosmetics done by Spring. When the car goes into the body shop I'll keep you posted. Thanks.

Hey A20A3, I barried the needle at 220K.
What sucks now is that after a month of driving my P28 got fried because of bad wiring (I'm convinced that my mech fucked something up or left some wires loose when he did the original wiring for the swap) I had to go back to my stuttering P13 (sucks hard) and I'm waiting on my mech's buddy to look at the P28 to see if he can fix it.

Hey thanks man, But thats a Gran Turismo pic, However my car is in that good of shape body wise and After I get it painted Championship White It will look like that...

[speedpenguin]

Wow, you actually came back, I thought we'd never see you again.

[MessyHonda]

I just picked up a digi cam last month so i'll get some video and pics for y'all. And yes, she is solid at 220km...no shake or shudder at all.

Hey Accordingly, I don't beleive that's a Gran Turismo pic. I love that game; do they actually have a 3rd gen in it and which version is it?

definitly a grand turismo pic, it is from my collection

[rdn86lude]

About how much did it cost in total for everything?

read post 73 YA NOOB!....lol jp with ya

[ChaseR]

the 3rd Gen in GT4 is the 88 Accord Coupe, Looks like an LXi to Me, but if you zoom in on the badge in the photo booth it says "import edition". IT also has rear disc brakes so who knows...

[ICEMAN707]

wow, didn't know they had a 3gee in GT4. too bad GT4 doesn't really show the engine mods to make the 3gee as fast as it is in the game. how fast is the 3gee in the game anyways with all the mods? how much hp?

250HP or so with turbo and fully built motor. I think it is actually an understatement for the amount of parts put into it.

[ICEMAN707]

Yeah we could only fantasize about those parts put into it in the game too. I wish it was that easy.

BTW, Legend, I like the new sig. Are those wheels off a teg? They look bigger than usual on your car. I thought they were only like 15's? I like the new look. All it needs is paint and tint!

[H22AccordSE-IV]

Just got some good news! My fried p28 is an easy fix; one of the capacitors burned out so it'll only cost me about 30-40 bucks! Whew! Just have to wait on this computer guy to get back to my shop.

how much is a new p28...or used?

[H22AccordSE-IV]

Well, I paid $280 CAD for a used one with a chip in it. I imagine a used P28 alone would run you at least $175, maybe $150 USD.

[halxi]

it is all about tuning + h22 are closed deck, so they hold boost well.

lol not quite... only SOME are closed deck, not all. Depends on year basically.

[Johnny O]

Good job , I am impressed with the swap, I thought I spent alot you have me beat. Go to see another one on the street, mine is track only. That crossmember looks scary, maybe you should get that reinforced you do not want that to bend or break, not good.

[H22AccordSE-IV]

You got an H22 in yours too? Nice!!! Any pics?

[Johnny O]

yeah it is this forum

i would love to see a k-series swap into a 3gee someday. modern engine in a classic, fully restored body. using everything off the civic k-series swaps. just fabricate brackets to accept the civic k-series swap mounts, then custom axles and wiring. would be nice to have a futuristic k-series engine like the ones in the 06 civic si's in the 3gee. now that would be a sight to see.

the k-series is no more... the g23 took its spot. its cheaper to build and waay more horse than the k.
im curious to find out if any1 has successfully swapped a f22 or F23(yea). ile look around)
ok-ok. i hear the h22 mounts up the same as a f23(or f22) sooo.... its now possible to swap a f23(f22)????
im interested in the mounts used for your (h22) swap-where can i find them???

[ICEMAN707]

more hp and torque than the k24 of the TSX type-s? or the K23 turbo from the RDX? you can get the regular k24's off the newer honda accords pretty cheap, the swap won't be though.

what about engine management and axles for the g23?

yes! and who said anything about a turbo dude? im talking about a n/a engine. but i guess u could turbo it but i dont know any thing about turbo #s.

when h22 head and pistons are used on a f23 block w/ f23 internals (exept pistons) you end up with 2306cc of displacement and a compression ratio of 11.72.1

It's not hard to get more horsies out of an engine when you take it apart and change internals and other crap. Of course doing that will be faster than a stock engine. IF you do the same thing to a K then the K will still be better than the g23.... I still would choose the G23 with the super low CR and turbo over any K. I have all three H22, F22, and K24. SO I've got a pretty good choice for whatever I wanna do... I just need the money lol

well im kinda low on cash my self i just want cheap, reliable hp.

if you want low cr on a g23 get new pistons... i bought the block and head from my brother and he used the stock (f23) pistons. but with the high lift head, the valves lifted right into the piston (partspartsparts)
