I spoke with David Crower and he told me to send a fax to Brian Crower at (619) 422-9067 concerning the interest in billet cams for the H23. I am going to send a fax on Monday, and I would recommend everyone else do the same.
David also said that they are still in the process of testing for the next three months at least.
it's a whole 'nother story after 3rd my friend. H22's have top end like whoa on our H23's... sorry to say. They just kinda die out up top. You'll get pulled on by a 22 in 4th and 5th. I also can beat an H22 till 3rd, then 4th comes and it's over.

I just want MORE power.
are 5th gens that weak?? I dont see a h23 pulling any h22 in 3rd. was that guy running on 2 clyinders? you need to run another h22 in third just to see, and post the outcome.

Actually, I did pull a 5th gen, in 3rd on the street. HE actually got me sleeping on the line, but in 2nd and 3rd I pulled him in and passed him. He also had at least I/E

no it's not man. I for one am getting tired of all the talk about this f22b being better than the h23, just because it's a j-spec motor or sumthin. It has lower compression,less horsepower AND less torque than the h23, so what are you trying to prove? Not hatin, just wonderin why you're thinking what you're thinking.

4th gear sucks in the H23, like I have said before, I loose races in 4th on the street, not all the time, but if I'm going to loose and I didn't get killed off the line, I'll loose in 4th. Now don't get me wrong, the H23 is fast. I beat almost every 5th gen I ever race. I run .1 slower in the 1/4 then the best 4th gen VTEC at LFW. What I'm trying to say is that the H23 is a good race between USDM VTECs, especially 5th gens, not a great race for a JDM H22.
That's what I wanted to hear... I agree completely. A top end street race... an H22 will almost hands down win, from a stop a street race is the closest you'll ever get the 2, being that reaction time has a lot to do with it. At the track, the H22 will shine better than on the street because even if the driver were to have a bad RT, it doesn't matter like it does on the street, so that advantage of ours is taken away.
Basically to sum it up, the H23's got the low end, the H22's got the top end, and they're really close right in the middle.
Originally posted by Preyluder I happen to love my 4th gear.
Mine isn't that weak, either. While I haven't raced any VTEC powered Preludes in 4th or 5th, I did race a B18 powered Hatch...we were dead even from the stop, until he topped out at 110-115ish.

do you mean the long h22 gears??
Ryan, sometimes on the hwy. I get stuck having to race at 80, which is right at the bottom of 4th, which really sucks you know, but once it gets to 90, the rest of the gear kicks ass I think.
