J00bles Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 dont waste your time doing either. the USDM preludes have a fairly weak engine (even the American SI versions) If the motor is a H22a JDM motor, it would be worth the effort (240hp stock) Quote 8 DC Level 4 M2 15s2 DC Audio 5ks26^2 clamshell tuned to 30hz9 Kinetik 1400sMechman externally reg'd 340 S seriesin a 99 Jeep Cherokee Click to see J00bles' Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nextrider123 Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 so i found a totaled prelude, with an h22 in perfect shape, the body of it was totaled in a recent hail storm. i am pondering whether to buy it and put the h22 in my accord in place of my current f22. OR fix up the body of that prelude... any ideas? im kinda stuck on what to do with it. you could just keep the accord stock and leave the lude alone and fix the body then u would have 2 cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care what you have or what engine swaps you've done. honda engine swaps are far from impressive.when you build a 1.8L engine with over 600whp, then maybe I'll reconsider you not knowing what you're talking about, since any engine with a closed deck block is far from weak. btw.. there was never a H series engine that made 240hp from the factory. the EDM euro-r engine has 217hp and jdm euro-r h22a7 has the same and that's as good as it gets. the japanese h22a has 197hp. but what do you know?

doug118 Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 his original question was to swap the h22 into his accord or to fix the prelude. I said put the h22 into the accord because as you just said, those swaps are a BLAST to drive if I personally had a perfectly good running donor h22 car, I would pick up the cheapest shittiest 90-93 coupe I could find and put the h22 into that. then keep the other accord for a nicer daily. for some motivation.. a friend built this car and even though the only thing left from honda in the engine bay is the bare head and valve cover, it's still a swapped accord coupe Quote 2001 Tahoe.
