Honda Integra 00" Query's

Alright guys.. just wanting to find out some information about the 2000 model honda integra's. Im considering on buying one.. but im not sure about the headlights etc.. if i was to get one i wanted to ensure it has a h22a vtec engine otherwise i would be doing a conversion (obviously). Anyway.. anyone know if its possible to have the standard lights of a older integra put into the new 00" integra if i dont like the round lights? and get a kit to suit? and any idea on what i would need to change if i wanted a h22a engine conversion?

cheers :)

have a look at jdm front integras if you dont like the circle lights

ohhh ok true.. i guess ill have to search them up. :P

would cost a fair bit though wouldn't it? getting the new kit to fit, lights, making the new light hole etc?

roughly 1.2k for parts

hmmm not as bad as i thought it would be.. cheers for the help dude.. :). anyone else got anything to add?

since when did integras have H22s? is it common?

they dont come with h22, engine conversions

yeah i wasnt sure.. should of done my research first >.<. but i will be getting a h22a conversion regardless if get the 00" Integra or the 98" Prelude..

Well dude apparently JDM fronts are un-insurable. also cutting and welding is involved. i know, it's a real bummer, i wanted to do it too. but the circle lights have been growing on me and now i think i like them. :)

Also, thats right, integra's never came with H22's, but i mean whats wrong with a B18C/2? you can tune and part 'em up to be really good too! :D

Good luck and good choice of car!

get one thats already converted, a dc2/dc4 i mean... also f you are going to chop one up to put a H22 in, just get a dc4 (GSI)... will cost you less...

a JDM front is insurable, but obviously it will come at a cost

Yeah actually thats probably a better way of putting it, some places will insure it but it'd be bloody expensive. ;)

Get a DC2/DC4, older model if you wish to chop it apart as stated.

JDM Front in parts will cost you over the ~1000$ mark if you're buying it as a package.
Might come cheaper if you collect parts individually.
(I assumed you wanted a JDM DC2 Front, since the old integra DA9's were the ancestors of these and would look horrible & require more work to fit)
As stated, these are insurable if you're ballin' make sure you weld on a reinforcement bar as well.
Otherwise no insurance company would really insure it, due to the scarce/less common parts.
Light spot welding and drilling is required to fit this front on.


H22A motor conversions in a DC2 is a bit of a headache, I have a good friend who owns a H2B in a DC2 Shell (probably the only one around).
Make sure you do your research before heading down this road.

I highly doubt you'll find a H22 motor in a DC shell for sale.

Why would you use a H22? I just don't get it?

It seems like you want a Prelude? Why not just buy a prelude to start off with. Don't turn an Integra into a prelude.

B20VTEC? just an idea. :)

hmmm... its good to know this information.. i dont know much on the dc4's or the b18c/2's.. so i cant really say anything. but i'm not sure yet what to get either integra or the prelude.. because i do want style and show but i want a bit of hp behind the wheel.. and the 5th gen prelude and 4th gen integra i dont see much up here.. and i want to bring another car you dont usually see around into the car scene. and yeah lastly.. so its pretty hard to convert the front round lights and jdm it up to the standard lights? i dont mind the round lights.. just slightly prefer the standard longer lights with the round projector inside which you can get aftermarket for 3rd gen accords i think... (mate has a set)... but yeah..

vtir prelude has a h22

you can pick up a bb4 h22 pretty cheap

Have u consider about the Honda Integra TYPE R 99-00 model, they are pretties cheap now, u can get them for 15k or maybe less...And its pretties much have everything u needs,Recaro seat and decent Power compare to the Honda prelude BB6 VTI-R or BB4. there is couple of Honda Integra VTI-R/ Type R with JDM front end conversion for sale on carsales.com...........

H22 what the f***

Why would you want that lump in the front of a DC2 chassis? Drag racing? Buy a Civic.

JDM FRONT DC2R! you get what you pay for :D
you won't be disappointed!
