I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

there you go as long as you maintain a positive attitude and set a goal everything works out in the end... good luck with your project

Im just not a big fan of the H22... never heard them lasting too long under boost.. even after building them up.. they are really picky bitches. I AM big fan of the b18b though hehe...

i agree w/ fone and civicex2g the h22 would not be a good engine unless ur 100% drag... if ur tight on money i would say do the b18b and turbo that... or w/ the turbo money u could go b18c5 / R

Definitely go B18b boosted. The b18b is a good motor for the price. Then you can dump the money you just saved into your turbo.

I am not sure how else to say this but THIS CAR WILL BE PRIMARILY FOR DRAG. This car is for track performance only as soon as the swap process begins... that is the whole reason I awas aiming at the h22. Any who, I will keep you guys posted, and I will try to post picks of it soon!

yeah the thing bout the h22 is that everyone expects it to be fast..... but major props would go to a sohc motor that could keep up with a h22 even if the h22 wins by an inch...thats just my opinion though...it doesn't matter =) but in contradiction...i like the idea of h22 motors in lil plastic civics..seriously

its a good swap. and its cheaper then a b motor. + alot easier to find.
i wish all these show only cars would swap an h22 instead of a b series so the people that actually wanna put the b series to work can have them instead of a bling'd out engine bay.
