Hey Guys.
I've been on this forum for a little while now basically ever since i bought my cb7 exi accord
. Looks to be such a great community here and can only envy the amount of cb7 modders in the U.S! They simply do not exist here at all... All you see over here in Australia is civics/integras from the honda side which reside in the bigger cities and everything else is just a mix of imports and over exagerrated heavy weighted "muscle cars". Anyway... Basically my accord had a bit of a dodgey up as it was my daily and was glad to drive it at the time. Now due to recent circumstances with the radiator being cracked/leaking water i've had to put it in the shed. I've got numerous other cars also.. with a h22 vtec prelude (donor car), f22 prelude (to fix up and sell of) and lastly my mitsubishi starion turbo (my backup car to drive around but meant to be my drift car in the future).
Anyway so basically i plan to eventually turbo the h22 vtec once i've completely done the swap thanks to the info on these forums and pump some decent boost into her.. but trying to keep it reasonably daily reliable. One concern i haven't decided on yet is to whether do the h22 vtec swap into my cb7 as it is.. get it driving and phase out any issues there may be left. Before the engine swap though the front end needs to be tidied up a bit and hence make the swap alot roomier to fit. But yeah can't decide on whether to turbo before h22 gets into the cb7 or do it later as the h22 vtec in the accord should be a decent upgrade from the f22 auto thats in it. Because basically it comes down to the fact that my starion is a 30yo car and being a daily.. is a bit risky.. but has lasted me the last week or so lol.
Anyway any advice people can give me on the easiest path to go would be appreciated..! Always loved my honda's and how they are so different here.. so now im more active on these forums i hope to be able to post in other sections of this forum as currently am unable to....
Let the games begin.
