Better off buying a Vti-r rather than swapping a b16a into it. Its just too much of a sh*t if its auto. As long as you don’t want to turn corners in it or have power steering the H22a is ok. The chassis requires beating to get it in and it understeers badly.

B18c is probably the way to go if you really want to do it. Should be able to get it done for around 3500.

B18 block+B16 head= poorman's itr is the best!!!!

H22 is no good (lol)

well if i get the h22a to go to the civic i will get the front cut with the manual gearbox will it fit?? and will it cost alot for 44 to put one on?? i know the price on my accord for a h22a but a civic??

h22a y0o0o0o0o0o0oooo

don't listen to anyone, h22a is a better all round engine with much more aftermarket support. it's also much cheaper and easier to install :thumbsup:

my vote goes to the b16a conversion.. however you might as well do what CTR Coupe said.

[filoaccord]

my g/f wants to know is it worth to put a h22a or b16, im just happy of my accord saving up for a h22a getting there with the money :)

no way you'll get a h22a in there for $5k why dont you just sell up and get a vti-r
