isnt b18c like 170-180 nm of torque and h22a 212nm of torque so i dont think the weight would relly matter
the b18c7r has 149kw and 181nm while the h22a has 141kw and 197nm. So very similar but you will find the b18c7r is very good and peaky in the top end and is a lightened motor over the every day b18c while the h22a has oodles of torque accross a wider rev range but is a heavier motor.
spot welding... good mounts... good suspension... won't be any more stress for the car...
barefootbonzai is correct, prolly work out cheaper... plus you will get a car which is f8cken fast... as opposed to just fast...
b18c2 is a great engine but if you're swapping B18C7 or H22A just put a bigger smile on your face :)
i dunno why people are saying H22a will make your car handle shit..
it's only 50kgs or so more heavier than the B18c
it will produce more torque more KW's all over the rev range than the B18c
but it'll cost abit to install properly custom mounts,shafts, no A/C, no power steering ( not sure i've heard) it wont be a very good daily driver.
IMO B18c is a better option. cheaper to modify,lot's of parts avaiable,
ps.H22a's are easier to source than the B seruse engines
YAY! thanks guys! my god.. i really want the h22a in my car rather than a b18c.. but the thing that just worried me was the handling part. mad. and also.. the b18c7r is a type r engine so i kind of think it isn't worth it with engine swap. because i'm planning to change suspension and everything so it should be ok right?
[[d a n n y]] ... but the thing is... if u put in the h22a it would be like 13s stock. and you don't have to do much to the engine thats the thing.
also, i'm thinking about putting a jap spec h22a into the car isn't that around 147-150kw at the engine?
but if u were to tune the h22a and b18c to the max teh h22a would win handle more shit upgrade to 6 speed
all i can say is the H22A Ek will be a monster... and will run a 13 sec pass with ease...
the trade off will be between p/s and air con - def can't fit both :) but a good mechanic should be able to give you one.
if u were to do the conversion with a h22a but you equipped it with the atts wouldnt the handling be like the smae as the b18c cuz its only 50kg heavier
really.. does anyone know who is the person with the eg with the h22a in it?
