took me 2 weeks last time.

correction. it's an f23.

it's stamped on the head. there are 2 or 3 "dials" stamped in and a circle that says the year in the middle of the head. check that and that was the year it was manufactured.

i have this majic resistor box . i might have 2 actually. pm me with an offer. by the way good luck i'll be doing an eg h22a swap soon :D

it's been done before. by one person that i know of. and he took a sledge hammer to his firewall for an hour or two.

thats what the h23vtec build essentially does. but it's never reliable(1 in every 50) and it doesn't make as much power.(mainly because nobody really goes all out on them). unfortunately the import aftermarket that we have has overlooked h series motors for the longest time and are just now...

searching............asking around........etc. and those are prices anyone could get. my wholesale price=rediculous. :)

manifold/tb=250bucks mild p&p=250 type s cams=550 type s pistons(with rings)=350 brand new quaife lsd=700 2100 bucks. for a far superior setup. i have a better flowing head and i have better traction(quaife lsd). and thats going after a setup much like the type s stock. i could turn that...

have you ever taken an auto h23 tranny to 8k rpms? :D trust me. they don't last very long.

basically it's like "stroking" your h22. more displacement etc etc. in the idealists mind. it combines the best of both worlds. the early torque produced from the h23 and the highend power of the h22. when built right. it is very powerful. when built wrong. cranks snap and rod bearings spin...

so basically the (roughly) 2500 dollar difference between the h22a and the type s. you are saying that you can't do any better? lets look at the main differences here. cams pistons Intake manifold throttle body lsd port and polish. yeah i'd make more power with a good ol jdm h22a.

that tranny would grenade itself in less than 3k miles.

atts sucks period. if you expect to boost. get a base model 5th gen. and if you try to swap the h22a4 with the atts unit. it will not work..(well without a lot of custom fabbing) IMO i'd just get an lsd tranny.

all type s's were lsd. it was a standard factory unit. if you get a motor without the lsd. then you got screwed because that is the only tranny used with the type s.

flanges are different.
