BULLL SHIT.Originally Posted by big mac
everything looks good. the hardest thing is to find the right tranny.
if im not mistaken a tranny out of a 2003-2004 accord/tl is what u need to look for
yeah man. bc the only manuals are 6 speed. i dont think im gonna do it bc i got good dyno numbers today on this setup
True.
Also. just curious whats making you lean towards the J swap? Would you ride with the No hood shit, or get the mounts that make your oil pan 2 inches from the Ground?
Im sure your H feels damn good..
yeah you already have a nice set up. it would still be nice to feel that v6.
accualy i was just getting a dam good deal on a j32a3 but desided to pass it up. i would of rock the first gen mounts and rocked cut hood. just like to give everything a try. my set up made 259whp and 230tq. some im happy with it
Yea I hear ya...
Thats some good numbers... I know there is a Thread in here with your setup.. But what all is done to your H.. To get that power? That is on spray correct?

Is it full straight pipe? If not, you might want some back pressure....
And the full 3 inch.. should be fine.. It wil support more mods with the 2.2 .. and yes the Nitrous
straight pipe it just has a magnaflow resinator. gonna be doing hondata s3 with a 100 shot to control everything better
Shit man.. well GL with everything in the future..
I might be building a H22A, If I dont build another R motor.
im prob gonna start building a single on boost or a all motor c1. just on the side
go to www.j32a.com
there is a lot more to those swaps than meets the eyes. For instance the auto and manual engines have significant differences in the timing belt side of the engine and how the ecu reads cam timing to crank timing. The gears and backing plates are different. Also you need a manual harness and a lot of sensors like one that reads marks on the flywheel also. So my best advice is get a full manual swap that hasn't been broken apart so you get everything.
that or the type s cl which has the lsd
any 03+ accord will do you. Technically you can use any of them but it sure does complicate things if you use a really new one from a tl.
^^^You can do the swap for 4k, the fabrication part is that there is none. Just wiring and mounts and then the issue of the hood to deal with.
