If you can get JDM H23 bluetop VTEC - GET IT. If it's just a regular ol H23, then don't bother.

That's the only exception where the H23 is worth it.. but it is practically impossible to source. Some people combine F23 block with H23 VTEC head as well.. search around for more info on that if you find it interesting. Roy (DarksideAccord) has that G23 build done, but without VTEC. Not sure if anyone has successfully done the G23VTEC, I only know of G23 non-VTEC to have actually been done, running, and reliable.

Yeh, I'll look around more and weigh my options. It seems either way I go, its all about the same. I honestly just don't really trust the F atm. It just makes sense to me that the H is a stronger motor to begin with.

Well, its decided than, cause thats the motor I am getting lol. My bad for not being specific. Its the motor from the Euro Type R Accord.

I don't know if it's stronger, but it's definitely more powerful right off the bat. If were talking about how much a motor can take? Then dude.. F23's take a serious beating. I have no clue why you don't trust it, I did . Maybe because it's such a rare motor to mod/turbo? If you're worried about getting help in the process, do not despair - plenty of info and successful F23 turbo builds here.

On the other hand, there is less info here about the H23 Bluetop, but it would be a straight up revolutionary build if you did go through with it and built it well, not to mention boosting on top of that.. it would be .

I'd edit the option to buy in your previous post - you only have 15 posts and are brand new, you need 50 posts and must be a member for over a month to be able to sell. I'd fix (edit) it before someone else does it for you if you know what I mean , and remember that rule for the future.

lol, yeh I just got owned by the site. Didnt see that anywhere, my bad. Either way, doesnt matter. I'm not here to scam anyone

 

[acedomain]

dude take your time dont rush it ....do it right the first time by researching and what not ...the more info you have the better you have alot of options to go by and all the time in the world to do this.

 

[Aeraun]

Yeh, you're right. I'm just real anxious. Been saving for about a year now for this, worked 3 jobs at one point lol. Just figured I get all the cool stuff done before I actually have bills to pay lol
