Question on JDM Motors - Honda Prelude Forum

jsmooney · 05-31-2003, 01:19 AM

my friend says he is getting a H22 out of a 94 Prelude, that IS JDM. But he says it is not vtec and he paid 1050$$ for it. i know that there was a h22 that was not vtec, but i am not sure this guy knows what he is talking about. he says the motor is also the same as mine, BUT it has 170 hp.....is he goofed up or what?

It'll be an F22A, 2.2 DOHC non VTEC, it's around 160 hp.

isn't F22A a SOHC? I know the F22B is DOHC. i don't want to argue, but that's what i thought....

Yep, my mistake, I shall now go stand in the corner

ummm isn't F22B vtec?

tenzola · 05-31-2003, 11:12 PM

nope

f22b is just the lil brother of the h23

i think the only dif is the bore size... correct me if i'm wrong

and the f22b should be obtained for less tehn 900

i know hmotors was selling these at around 600 and a local shop was selling for 700

a lot of places online don't know prices.. they try to rip you off and then some..

i called a couple engine distributors from teh back of magazines and got prices ranging for 1500 all the way to 3k for the f22b and h23

i was like.. =O

ps.....I like my F22B more than my old H23A!!!

OSOFAST10 · 06-01-2003, 12:29 AM

OSOFAST10 - you going to the meet? what mods do you have? let's drag race!

Qveon · 06-02-2003, 02:45 AM

so how is the F22b > H23? and how much difference is there between H22a? and how does the f22b hold up to turbo?

Scalifludesi · 06-02-2003, 02:47 AM

...and I like my H23A1

OSOFAST10 · 06-02-2003, 05:30 AM

UBetterBelieveIt --> what meet are you talking about

jsmooney · 06-02-2003, 03:39 PM

National Prelude Meet....in AL

OSOFAST10 · 06-02-2003, 03:48 PM

uummm don't think so, cause i would have to find a place to stay and then i would have to make one hell of a drive from Va. maybe if it's in the fall. cause i'll be in NC and that might be a closer drive to AL then from Va.

OSOFAST10 · 06-02-2003, 03:56 PM

oh damn i just looked at the meeting post and that's this friday... ha that a def. NO then. my girl is grad. and i think i'll be in the crapper if i don't go to her grad. so i think i'm missing this one.

jsmooney · 06-02-2003, 11:19 PM

drag racing IS sunday and Talladega IS saturday....tell her you are going fishing or camping or something.....

OSOFAST10 · 06-03-2003, 06:09 AM

jsmooney · 06-03-2003, 09:02 AM

OSOFAST10 · 06-03-2003, 09:15 AM
