Conragts! Is the vehicle up and running? Have you installed the A/C and did you faced any problems/issues in its installation?

Also now that you have a beat, please drive safe!

best of luck, all the best wishes to complete the project waiting for upgrades

Thanks buddy. No the project is still in progress. There are always problems with this kind of project but Allah ka shukar hai its moving ahead pretty well. The engine bay is still empty because im waiting for the mounts to be ready. Once the mounts are ready the engine will be mounted and thats the most difficult part. After that comes the wiring bit which is also very annoying. Anyway I hope the project moves ahead without any glitches. Need your prayers here

Thanks bro.

how much did u purchased the h22a?? can i have some of the expert contacts u have??they would be realy helpful to me. m loking for 250+ .swap cost kya arahi hai ? i have selected the engine in peshawer . if cheap n better labour is available their then i will try swaping the engine in peshawer.

sammad_kh (sammad_kh) 2010-11-05 19:01:41 +0500 #27

250+ to the wheels or just the engine output? If you want 250+ to the wheels then you dont need to turbo. You can upgrade your cams and cam gears, throttle body, intake manifold, headers, exahust and get some high compression pistons (13:1). These would easily give you around 260 to 270 bhp but would certainly cost you. I can recommend Hassan ustaad in Peshawar, he is pretty good but not exactly cheap. There are cheaper mechanics but again they arent as good. Khursheed is also pretty good in Peshawar, I have heard some good stuff about him. I thought Khi is a very big market you will certainly find good mechanics in khi.

ibyhashmi (ibyhashmi) 2010-11-05 19:14:26 +0500 #30

over here some gud mechanics charged 4k labour for just changing the brake pads!! karachi is in fact huge but the good mechanics r hard to find and very hard for the pocket

I paid 155k for the H22 here. You will be able to find it cheaper in Peshawar but make sure it comes with original tranny. Remember that there are two versions of the H22, the accord version and the prelude version. Do your research before buying as a lot of h22s here are sold with the accord tranny. Also the h22 is now becoming a dated engine so be careful with your purchase. Have it compression tested at least before buying.

ibyhashmi (ibyhashmi) 2010-11-05 19:22:16 +0500 #32

compresion tested ? woh kahan sai check hoga ? how to know wat trany it is. the person said its a lsd manual gear with uncut wiring . wat trany is better?said 110k for it.

ibyhashmi (ibyhashmi) 2010-11-05 19:27:09 +0500 #33

i m new in pakistan so dnt know alot about here.will do research before the purchase thx alot. u helped me alot n best of luck again. do load a video after completing the project.tc . will be in touch to the thread

sammad_kh (sammad_kh) 2010-11-05 19:36:21 +0500 #34

People who sell engines usually have a compression tester with them. Google compression testing and learn more about it. There are tons of videos on youtube as well. You should also google about the trannys, there is tons of info on various forums on trannys and their codes etc. The LSD gearbox that he is mentioning could be a T2W4 tranny that did not come originally with an h22. Only the h22 type s came with a lsd gearbox (ATTS) and that engine is retailing for 250k to 270k. In fact there is one on sale on pakwheels as well.

Finally! Been waiting for this project to kick off. Many congrats on becoming the owner of your H22 and the start off of the swap.. Hope that it goes smoothly for you. Best of luck!

Are you planning to paint the top Red?

Also, while your mounts are being prepared, I'd suggest have the area on your car's body (where the mounts will be placed) sanded and painted cause I can see a few rusty spots on your car.. Kind of like what this guy has done here:

Wish you all the best.. Don't forget to put your seatbelt on!

@jaggi thanks
@juadjee thanks bro. Yeah im planning on painting the top but not sure which color. So far I liked these tops. I think im might go with the powderedred top it simply looks awesome. But I dont know how this will be done.

sammad_kh (sammad_kh) 2010-11-06 11:26:32 +0500 #38

Shifter cables are in. The mounts will be prepared by Monday Inshalla.

juadjee (juadjee) 2010-11-06 11:36:03 +0500 #39
