    Need help... H22 in my 6 gen with f23 lsd transmission...

    You're welcome, I have only seen other builds that have done the drilling through the firewall for the conversion. Your best approach will be to find those threads and consult with the guys who have actually done the conversion on the cg, they will know better what all is involved for that...

    Need help... H22 in my 6 gen with f23 lsd transmission...

    I said that the auto to manual conversion is not recommended for the cg chassis, mainly because of the drilling and custom pedal setup involved. I recommend the h22a install as this is what I have done and it is a very fun car to drive. I think you're better off drilling the holes. I think...

    Finished h22 swap, need ecu advice

    It was a powerplant that I bought on Ebay, I would recommend doing this, as they are imported motors with low mileage. The car it came from was a 97-01 Honda Accord SiR. It's an obd1 motor, so this is where most of the conversion takes place, but it is fairly straight forward, but a lot of...

    Nice, I like those isolation mounts, that's a good idea to have it in that location to hook up with your hondata system. Yes, I welded the foot rest. I do a lot of fabrication on my projects. For my cg, I also welded my own motor mounts, an exhaust adapter (h22 header to cg j pipe), I also...

    Need help... H22 in my 6 gen with f23 lsd transmission...

    My advice is to swap the entire powerplant that your friend has into the car. The auto to manual conversion is not recommended for the cg chassis as there are no provisions for it and I don't know how you will be able to make power with the auto transmission. Your auto chassis is not a very...

    Anyone using Android head units?

    I have now realized that I can use an hdmi to rca converter to plug the pi into the android head unit! This way, I will be able to use the pi together with the android head unit, because the head unit is only an rca monitor in its other modes. I will post more about if this works when I get a...

    Anyone using Android head units?

    I installed the switch today and after waiting for the car to warm up, I turned on the switch for the head unit and it worked great for the entire time. I think that the combination of this switch and the fan are key elements to enable this particular head unit to work dependably. One thing...

    Anyone using Android head units?

    It's a China one that I got on ebay, no name. It has a rather heavy duty back plate that feels like steel because of the weight of the unit, which could be the culprit. I'm assuming that overheating is the problem, but it could be that it doesn't like when I turn it on with the acc position of...

    Finished h22 swap, need ecu advice

    I ran into an inefficiency in the relay wiring that I wanted to mention. The relay was initially located near the battery and the source wiring was traveling through the engine compartment and to the electronics within the cabin with no wire wrap or protection (apsx wideband, dashcam, 12v...

    Anyone using Android head units?

    A little update on the android. It seems to be having trouble upon startup on hot days. I assume the electronics might have a safety function to turn it off when too hot. When I get going, it works fine, dependably, for the entire drive, but it requires a restart button press once the car is...

    Data logging wideband with android

    I have an apsx d2 wideband gauge and I would like to be able to use my android head unit to data log rather than have to bring a laptop into the car. The gauge uses an ASCII based signal emulator software program that interfaces the Wideband Digital Output software for it to generate the RPM...

    Finished h22 swap, need ecu advice

    I installed a fan for the android head unit that will create air movement under the dash, similar to inside of a CPU case. The fan is wired to my relay system that uses ignition on as a signal rather than a power source. DB9 to USB adaptation for data logging the wideband signal. I used...

    Anyone using Android head units?

    I recently installed one and I really like it 1. It depends on the signal voltage that the steering wheel controls send out, but most likely it will work and if not, you can switch to aftermarket ones that have the correct voltage. 2,3. Yes, the accord's radio is actually slightly bigger than...

    Trunk and door lock issues

    1998 accord coupe 1. My passenger side lock spins around in the cylinder, I can unlock it with the key, is there some spring in the lock assembly that I need to replace? 2. My passenger side lock actuator doesn't work, either. I assume that I need to replace the actuator, but I didn't know if...

    auto to manual + obd2b>0bd1 swap help? 2001 accord f23a1

    If you are running the f23a1 motor, the distributor wiring is significantly different from an obd1 distributor, the signal wires run over to the other side of the motor on the f23a1, as opposed to the signal wires going into the distributor on the obd1. If you are running the adapter harness...

    Automatic tranny will NOT come out

    Nice job, I wouldn't worry about the mount too much, it should be able to handle it shifting around a little.

    Automatic tranny will NOT come out

    When I install a manual transmission, after getting it started, I get two "guide bolts", longer than the housing bolts bolted onto the two top bolt positions near the cylinder head to guide it in. Then, I lay under the car and sort of bench press it and slide it toward the motor along the path...

    Finished h22 swap, need ecu advice

    I installed new slotted and drilled rotors, pads and stainless braided lines in front. And the rear brakes also. This is the relay setup that I designed for wideband and dashcam power requirements. It uses ignition on as a signal rather than a power source.

    Finished h22 swap, need ecu advice

    The car is completely finished now! I opted for an android head unit and I am so glad I chose it over a traditional head unit. Photo session turned into a video game session! The vafc2 and steering wheel remote receiver are mounted in the cubby under the head unit in a custom 3d printed...

    I bought my JDM H22A powerplant from an Ebay store, it was very clean and had 55k miles. If you buy a JDM import, it will have low mileage. One problem that I had was that the ecu arrived doa, so I am now using a p28 ecu, egr delete, and butterfly delete plate. This setup is faster than my...

    If you do a transmission swap, it might be more beneficial to do a h22 powerplant swap instead.
