Measured how big the IM was and it's at about 13 inches and the room I have to work with is about 12 incehs, so I'm thinking about another 1 and a half inch should be good. Hopefully I won't hit the blower motor. Looks like a tight fit. If this doesn't fall through, Euro-R manifold.

Well thanks for the input guys, but I think I got a Euro-R IM from Rosko Racing coming in the next month when he's done putting the work on it. The euro-R is suppose to be about 1/2 inch smaller than the stock IM, so clearance shouldn't be a problem this time since the stock h22 can fit in there.
Have to cut the brake pedal down to manual size.

A crappy picture of the 5 speed and you can slightly see my Hondata s300 and my other stock ecu's.

My engine with the ebay headers, reason why I went with ebay headers is because I will go turbo in the near future.

It's finally here. after 2 months the Euro-R is here. Courtesy of Rosko Racing.

Very small update. Decided to clean up the thread a little bit and put everything on 1 page. All that's left to do is fuel and wiring. Deleted the cruise control. One small problem I'm having is the RDX injectors not fitting into the AEM fuel rail, so have to figure out what to do with that. Also how did the h22 swap guys handle their power steering swap? I've seen on darkside's that he just cut and welded the metal piece any other suggestions rather than that?

very nice! pics?
You'll have to let me know how you like the s300 system. I'm currently saving up for one of those of an OBDI swap.

Re: Tphong's very slow h22 and 5 spd swap

Trying to get pics up, but it's not working. I've posted pics before, so I should know how to do it. Don't know what's going on.
**edit** Ahhhh there we go.

Re: Tphong's very slow h22 and 5 spd swap

Since you're a 2002 if you swap out for the s300 your Engine Temperature Gauge won't work anymore. From what I've been reading it's because the 2000-2002 use a sensor that goes to the ecu then to the gauge. 98's and 99's use a direct sensor that skips the ECU.

On your photobucket viewer there should be four boxes on the right side with different options you want the last one that says IMG. Click it, it should say "copied" then in your post pick the icon that looks like a mountain with a circle, in the box that pops up hit ctrl + v and then hit OK.

Yeah, i've heard that also. Think it'd be hard to just wire it up so it bypasses the ECU and goes straight to the gauge also?

Correct. I had this issue and decided to just run an aftermarket temp gauge since I liked the piece of mind of an accurate reading.

There is a guy who did that on here. I think he got a gauge cluster from a 98 or 99 and used the ect sensor that did the straight to gauge and just wired it up. I'm also gonna try and do this. So I'll let you know.
