[MR-VTEC]

[Phat_ciVic]

[MR-VTEC]

whered u get your mounts and driveshafts from plus how much did they cost? did u do the conversion yourself or get someone else to do it for u?

[Phat_ciVic]

got som1 else to do it, it cost $2000 for the conversion, which included all the mounts and stuff. and the front cut was $2900

[fusion_VTi]

i think that yellow TT civic you guys are talkin about ran an 11 i once read. also the kit is cutsom from aresped styling.

[Phat_ciVic]

no sadly it didn't, i have the zoom magazine next to me with the tt, yellow civic in it

226kw @ wheels/ 12.85 sec @ 110mph

lil disspointing i thought

[MR-VTEC]

yeah and the kit isnt kustom its so plain have ya seen it looks pretty ordinary to me. disappointing

[Phat_ciVic]

[Charcoalcivic]

You in briz? Who did your work? All up how much did the project cost?? Ive spoken to the TT civic guy before, bit of a toss, you should se his custom extractors, they do about 3 laps around the engine bay before meeting up with the exhaust!

[Phat_ciVic]

i know they look ****in awefull, it was one thing i was a lil worried about when i was talkin to gilmours about gettin the h22a, i didn't want it to look ugly, like tt boy's do.

oh yeah, Gilmours, did my work. all up the project cost 2MUCH, and i will live in briz in 6 an a 1/2 weeks

[Toby]

I want to see pics :D

[Phat_ciVic]

u will tuesday

[Toby]

WOO HOO :D

[honda_b_blastn]

Yer Gordo,u know im joining u soon. My package arrives in 3 weeks.
In repsonse to "wolf"....
Im doing mine myself
using hasport mounts,prelude intermeidate shafts with 94 up integra drive shafts(have to change over to prelude c'v joint there to).

[civ]

David's (Geek) package was not done by Gilmours, was done by andrew at aressound...
and yeh the exhaust manifold was made by li (i think thats his name) himself.

[Ryanair]

Ah no i think Id be right in saying that Mark Veigal did the conversion for geek.........ask geek....geek :?: then again i might be wrong..

[xKx_31]

Was the conversion legit? I for one thought Licensing would permit only 10% increase in power, cum all the ADR and shit. Was thinking of converting to a H22A since its relatively easy to source but then again the mech i went to said it would cost at least 1.5G to get it done and even so it wuld be hard. Maybe coz i stay W.A side :?

[xKx_31]

oh did i mention the 1.5G was only for paper work and not the engine/harness/ecu/shaft/gearing/labour !? :(

[egSi]

hey gordo i heard you were gettin some hell nice buckets
for your eg too ;)

[Phat_ciVic]

yeah i am m8, but i dunno if i'll have a car to put them in, long story, but the basics of it are, i went to brisbane to see my car, they were locked on friday, i came back on tuesday and they were open, but my car was locked in some guys shed where it was being dyno'd but Matt couldn't get through to that guy on his mobile to get him to open up. but when my m8 and i went to where Matt said the dyno is, none of the surrounding mechanics or dyno's had ever heard of it. soooooooo it's all very dodgy. saw the frontcut the engine came out of, saw my pioneer speakers in a pretty ****ed state in the shed at gilmours, got the old injectors and fuel rail for Trav, and saw the new block matt says has to be put on the h22a cuz they cracked the other one. BUT NO CAR.

[Geek]

Hi geeks..
The H22a conversion I had on my EK was all legit as I had it passed by qld transport with a blue plate and had all the new engine details on my rego.

Mark Veigal did alot of work on the conversion but didnt do it all by himself. Scott from Ares Speed also did alot of the work. Have never been to Glimours before but they sound dodgy.

Kept the aircon and power steering aswell. As far as I know le didnt do any of the work on this conversion but let me borrow a ecu for a little while till I was waiting on mine. I dont know of any of other h22a conversions in an EK with power steering and aircon.. does anyone else?

Anyways after it was all finished and tuned I got 112kw atw on the dyno at CNJ.


Here's a pic of the h22a in the EK-
