I was thinking about buying a h22 off of TigerJapanese....I have heard good and I have heard bad about that site....Any input???? And if I did....would I have to buy a separate ecu and uncut harness somewhere else?

And many more to be searched...........
Anyways mine from TJ was very good. Had a small problem and they took care of it.
A LOT to do for a real good swap so research,research ,research.
Any corners you cut WILL come back later.
Around 2.5 to 3K by the time your done doing most labor yourself is about what it takes.
There will be members here that will say you can do a swap in 5 hours and it will cost next to nothing.
I'm happy for them but in the real world of reliability those kinds of statements are pipe dreams.
Everything you could possibly need to know about a swap is here at CB7 Tuner.com
Just somethings to consider.Last edited by Old School; 04-10-2009, 08:01 AM.Take that freek show to the park, maybe the squirrels will care.

As I've said in every other thread... keep in mind that you're buying from a Canadian company. You really have no course of action if they give you a crap motor, other than HOPING they make good and replace it.
I'd choose www.hmotorsonline.com over anyone else.

2 users that have purchased from them recently got bad motors.
PR CB7 had to include a broken, YES BROKEN SNAPPED OFF, crankshaft (as you probably read)
and
DrummerSteve7 to include bottom end issues. still need to open it up, possibly rod bearings, maybe more!
again to piggyback on what deev said I would go with hmotorsports.
goodluck my friend!Last edited by drummersteve7; 04-10-2009, 10:59 AM.MadLab Racing

I got my h22 from tigerjapanese. I ordered it Feb 9th and got it the week after, I just recently did the swap and my car is running like a champ.. I guess I was lucky! I know two others, other than myself, that bought from tiger around the same time as me and their motors were good motors

LOL I got an F22A from TigerJapanese a while ago for around $650 shipped and man was that motor abused!! it has been through a lot: running it wide open throttle every chance i get, once improperly installed timing belt and distributor, the motor even saw 20:1 AFR at wide open throttle multiple times. After over 10,000 miles of abuse it still runs like a brand new F22, doesn't even have any signs of the common idle surge problem.Comment
