if you printed out the swap guide to put an h in a cb, then you should be fine.

[Accrdwgnguy]

yes, as long as your wagon and the lude are both the same trans type (auto or manual)

Ludes auto h23 but I have the 5 speed h23 m2s4 trans for it
so ok cool im good.

[90exkId]

does it matter the H23 is auto? cuz i have the 5 speed trans. my bro reminded me that wen we did his JDM D16A swap, he couldent use the JDM auto Intake manny cuz the plugs were different. but iim thinkin that since its not the JDM h23, i should be good? my wagon is 5 speed......
thanks for the help, will be posting pics of the swap later on in my swap thread.

Swap Faq's for the CB7

Internal/External Coil Issues:
If your car came equipped with an internal coil then the JDM H22 distributor will plug right in no problem. However, if your car had external coil then you will have to modify one plug. The plug you will need to modify is the plug that went to the stock coil. There are is a yellow and a yellow/black wire, splice those 2 wires together. The Black/White wire is useless, don’t worry about it. If you dont want to cut the plug off and splice, jam a 30amp fuse into the end of the plug, making the connection between the two wires.

If your car is external coil and you wish to maintain the external coil you will need to open the JDM dizzy, remove the internal coil. Run the wire from the igniter that used to go to the internal coil out of the distributor and plug it into the blank spot on the distributor’s plug. That’s it. Use the 93-95 Prelude Vtec’s Distributor cap and rotor that you can pick-up and your local dealer or auto parts.

What caps to use:
Internal coil – CB7 internal coil cap/rotor or 00 Civic SI cap/rotor.
External coil – 93-95 Prelude Vtec cap/rotor.

Aftermarket Ignition amp install (MSD/Crane):
For External Coil equipped cars:
Cut the Plug that went to the stock coil off, splice the yellow and yellow/black
wires together connect this wire to the ignition on of your aftermarket amp (red for MSD). Connect the Black/White wire to the Trigger input of your aftermarket amp (White on MSD).

Im confused...... My wagon came with internal, so theres no plug for it, an its 5 speed. So I cut an splice those two wires together on the h23 dizzy an im good?

[Freshagen]

you'll prolly have to do what I have to.. there's a DIY on how to switch the h23's external to internal by gutting the cb7 dizzy and putting the ignition/cap/rotor into the h23 dizzy

edit. external to internal diy


im staying internal simply cus because it looks cleaner

Should I use the auto lude ecu or my lx 5 speed ecu for now....?

Use the lude ecu. Make sure you ran wires for the knock and any other sensor you don't have on the f.

[90exkId]

I tryed using the auto lude ecu an it makes my car run like crap. I put my manual accord one in an iy runs great. I didnt wire up a kncok sensor on my h23, everything plugged in perfect. Only have 1 cel, an thats for the auto yrans b circut, cuz I have the auto lude motor harness in it.

[90exkId]

Also, since I have the 92 lude parts car, can I swap the rotors an brake pads onto my wagon.? Since they are brand new
