92 Prelude - Honda Prelude Forum

I just bought a 92 prelude SI but the owner before me had a new engine put, im tryin to figure out if its a S,SI, oR vtec.

My engine is a 92 JDM F22B (B not A) TWIN CAM 2.2

S, SI, or VTEC????

JDM F22B are you sure it's a JDM... i think it's a S model... well how's the engine block look like the VTECS have a big VTEC badge on it.. the si is just a block... and the S is basically the same as the accord engine...

I think the F22b Is an SI. It's 2.2l w160hp.

There was one for sale recently on ebay.

SiR-P12eLude · 06-13-2002, 09:26 PM

but that tag says honda accord.. looks like a si motor though.... weird.. take pix

Brady92/4WS · 06-13-2002, 09:49 PM

i though the f22b was like 150hp

GoneLudey · 06-13-2002, 10:26 PM

isn't the F22b motor from the Accord Type-R?

Xx Azn704Boi xX · 06-13-2002, 10:33 PM

so how HP and TORQUE DOES IT HAVE???

brendon2k · 06-13-2002, 10:34 PM

F22b is like the equivalent of the H23 in Japan. It is a 2.2l dohc non vtec motor with 160hp like the h23 but a little less torque, 148ftlbs I think. So to answer your question it is not a S, Si, or vtec motor.

KB798 · 06-13-2002, 10:40 PM

yea brendon's right~ f22b is the jdm version of the h23a

knightluder · 06-14-2002, 01:26 AM

I thought the f22b was the s model engine. Or is that the f20???
What is the accord engine? I know it is f something.

gerlude93 · 06-14-2002, 05:06 PM

the accord motor is the f22a1. sohc non vtec.
about 135-140 horse with 140lb torque. thats what is in my car. the s model.

silversurfer786 · 06-29-2002, 12:09 PM

I have a 95 prelude S. It has a sohc engine 2.2 liter, f22a1 which has 135 hp and 142 torque. SI and Vtech's are h22a1 and h23a1 which means its a diffrent series than the f's. So I'm pretty sure its probably a S or unless I could be wrong, it might be a SE. Hope that clears things up a little.

I concur. . .

f22b if the JDM engine that came in the base model bb1 prelude in Japan. The japanese never had a SOHC bb1 prelude. I believe that the accords in Japan have these motors also. It is dual cam non vtec 160hp and 148ft/lb of torque... I think the USDM h23 has the same hp rating but a little more torque because of the .1 cc of displacement.
F20B is the Accord type r motor (euro i think) that is the motor with the blue valve cover. Basically it is a 2.0 block with a h22a head, with 11:1 compression ratio.

I am pretty sure that the lowest model 5th gen preludes came with a sohc engine and hubcaps is japan. I thought this was the same with the prelude. Was the 2.0l 4th gen motor only in europe or also in japan?

F22B's are DOHC?!?

YES, F22B 's are DOHC. The F22A , on the other hand is the SOHC motor found in the 4th gen S models and older accords.

sporttheimport · 07-18-2002, 09:29 AM

i agree. i should make mine "wHiTeBoi93". whats the purpose of having your nationality or race in your screen name?

besides that, i can go make fun of my other friend now with a "JDM" H23 in his 92 Si. if its truely a JDM Si engine, it should read F22B on the block
