whatever man... did you not read any of my posts??? that shit is unreliable. I looked all over and found one that had made to to 20k miles... and its a F23 bottom end with a h23 non-vtec head. None with the H22A head last. partly because you have to block off 4 coolant passages, which eventually leads to warpage. Give it up. He has a H23, he wants to keep it a h23A... i guess you cant read what the guy who started this thread said. he wants to know how to get more power from his H23A not how to swap a F23 bottom end into it, which has shitty rods that are narrower and the hole on the crank shaft end is a lot smaller than the H22/23 rods.

what the hell makes you think a "G23" with a stock h22a head and no mods will beat a stock H22A in HP? the ones I have seen make 160whp at the most with some bolt on-s. Hell even the turbo one only made 212whp. My jdm SiR S-Spec H22A made 204whp stock with intake and a catback. So after all that shit, the guy with the turbo "G23" only made 8 more hp than me. The ones with 270-300whp are built. This guy does not want to spend that much money, and especially on something that is not going to last 15k miles and eat a rod bearing.

it seems you are the one who knows nothing of the "G23"

BTW, quit calling it a G series... Honda already has one. Its the G25 found in the 2.5TL.

The F23 bottom end/ H22A top end combination is a waste of time and money. Why not just buy a jdm H23 VTEC? you can get one for about $2300. Thats what it would cost you to build a "G23" that would last.
