h22a w/o tranny - Honda Prelude Forum

LudedudeSi · 09-11-2002, 07:17 PM

Does anyone know where to get a jdm h22a without the tranny? I guess just the longblock. thinkin about the swap but not sure. It all depends on the price. Thanks guys

www.nippon-motors.com. I think a long block is about 1300 but then you still need to mod your exhaust and get a ecu that can run vtec.

i know i have a local shop that i can get to moddify my test pipe to fit the header. now all i need is to find a place to get an ecu. i could run a p72 couldnt i? it runs rich right? im not sure.

I just check Nippon Motors and they said the motor only is 1150 is it 1300 shipped? if so that would be great.

3) Go Faster

LudedudeSi · 09-11-2002, 08:55 PM

thats a nice 3 steps. it should be FAQ'd..lol

LudedudeSi · 09-11-2002, 09:15 PM

i need some more info and some more motivation.

What about the ecu? Is it ok the get one off of ebay? ans whats the deal on the p72?

Fast&furiuslude · 09-11-2002, 09:26 PM

u can use the p72 if u want, id go with a p13 though only cost me 400 for a jdm one

and yes its worth it if u get the swap trust me,i havent even driven it yet lol and i had a freak Si taking out vtecs but theres nothing like the actual vtec, DO IT!

LudedudeSi · 09-11-2002, 09:49 PM

400 for a p13? i thought they ran for like 150-200. theres a jdm p13 on ebay right now for a lil under 200.

4thGVtec · 09-11-2002, 10:06 PM

the p72 dosnt open your secondary runners till about 6000rpms, and i herd that it bogs low end. ive herd the p28 that has been chipped, moddified for dohc engines, and rev limiter bumped is the way to go.

Fast&furiuslude · 09-11-2002, 10:51 PM

yea p72 bogs real bad low end but is good for top. i doubt u can find a p13 ecu for under 300,if u do ill be surprised..i looked hard

LudedudeSi · 09-11-2002, 11:01 PM

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1857011901 should i bid?

brendon2k · 09-11-2002, 11:09 PM

stock p72 will run lean. i would reccoment getting a p13 or a p72 that has been modded my hondata to all the specs you need.

LudedudeSi · 09-11-2002, 11:28 PM

what about a VAFC and just a jdm p13?

PreludeRacer023 · 09-12-2002, 01:41 AM

dont waste your money on a JDM ecu...your going to hate the feul cutoff at 118, i thought oh id never hit it, well i did, it sucks...im running a P28 which u can find cheap, mine is programs to a GSR mugen program, runs very rich...but i also have a VAFC...also i just unplugged the secondaries, theyre open all the time...makes great power through all rpm ranges, ask 4thGVtec, hes seen my car and ridin in it...doesnt bog like everyone says...hope that helps you, also your longer gear ratios are gonna hurt a little, but the Vafc will keep you from falling out of vtec on your 1-2 shift, peace

LudedudeSi · 09-12-2002, 06:30 AM

yeah but how can i get ahold on a p28 with the mugen gssr program like u have?

PreludeRacer023 · 09-12-2002, 10:56 AM

buy the p28 stock..doesnt matter if its an auto ecu or not..then youll have to pay someone to chip it, but i got my ecu for 250 total...including the p28...peace

LudedudeSi · 09-12-2002, 11:05 AM

who can chip it for me and how much? im gonna go ahead and do this ahead of time so i have it ready to go when i get the motor.
