those are not desired motors in the honda world. there are not a whole lot of mods out there on most sites. you will have to find specalized sites like i used for my 2nd gen civic.

if you are looking for a car to mod you would be much better off with a 1990 and up accord. however you could find a late 80's civic or early 90's civic. those are great cars to mod because of the availability of mods, engine swaps etc.

ok thanks..i new that this car isnt the desirable for accords..but i gotta work with what i got..thanks for the info though.

You could probably find:
Headers
Intake Manni
Short Ram Intake
for your car, not much of a gain but enough to get buy.

you could swap in the f22 accord/prelude motor with the h22 mount kit some make for your car

there's no such thing as an h-series mount kit for the 3g accord. the only mount kits available were placeracing mounts for the b-series. placeracing is now out of business, so any swap project is all custom to make it fit.

yes, headers and exhaust are readily available for the 3g accord. and also, 2g integ cai fits w/ battery tray relocation, 5g accord intake is a direct fit besides widening the hole in the fender.

beyond those, you can get a delta cam regrind. adj cam gear if you're really lucky. b16/b18c5 intake manifolds will fit with a redrilling of one or two of the mount holes. put an a20 intake manifold gasket on the b16 manifold to find where to drill. but since the a20 really doesn't make power in very high rpm like b-series can and do, you may end up losing power for most of the powerband.

yes, it's been done. but it's a totally custom job because there is no h-series mount kit for the 3g accord. as far as i know, there was never one produced. if you can find any evidence that a mount kit has ever been produced, i'll shut up.

 

[89hondalxi]

i would be so grateful...so would my pocket...

tax season is upon us.

you right there is no h-series mounts for the 3g. there has only been b-series mounts available for them from place, but place is out of biz so if your lucky to find them you would be better of finding a company to maufacter them for you and make some green
