its not that much heavier but its placement compared to a b18 puts more weight infront of the fronts which will cause more understeer. But with all said and done unless you are willing to go b18c7r or a k20a/a2 i would take the h22a over the b18c2Quote:

suggest you take a read ...
hey! thanks heaps for that.. i wanted to find this guy lol.
so what EXACTLY would you have to upgrade, so when you do the engine conversion it wont affect the chassis?
well really depends what your car comes with..
if it's a breeze gl/gli
you'll need rear LCA's from Si or VTi. to fit in a stock rear sway bar atleast.
even just putting a B16a it is a good idea to upgrade it..
but general things like sway bars Suspension, etc anything that'll stiffen up your chassis will be a good idea.
hehe.. it's an ek bro.
ek cxi
oppps shit ey sorry man thougt it was a EGQuote:

then when your doing that change your LCA's so u can mount a stock EK4 sway bar even on a stock CXi it'll make alot of improvement in your turn in and your car will feel very positive into corners.
well in the case of a B18c/H22a/B16a engine swop. try the type R sway bars (OEM ITR/CTR) bigger than the stock EK4 or VTI/GLI sway bars
and the strut braces carbring /spoon or similar.
and then to counter the added weight in the front use adjustable damper shocks to stiffen her up in the front
cool! thanks :P
