H22 vtec in 86

[rich_86]

yea as it says anyone tried this conversion figured might be cheaper than rebuildin 4age and got another 86 wit 4ac that needs to find a new engine so yea anyone know anythin bout wat is needed and whether it will work...cheers

if your talkn about the fwd prelude one then it will never work because they spin the opposite direction to every rwd box...... :crazy:

[rich_86]

fair enough thanks

its one of the few things that stop me having a Honda in my engine bay

[biggo]

F22C it up then?

[Javal]

I am SURE that there would be more to it than this...

But if you REALLY wanted a backwards spinning honda motor in your engine bay, couldn't you just mod the diff so it can be run upside down?

However i get the feeling that helical cut gears (re:gearbox) are only designed to spin one way.

yeah gearbox wont hack it, would have to mod some kind of rwd box thats gonna spin the same way


if you want honda, u gotta spend money.. simple

if u want honda, spend the money, get a s2000 halfcut and make it fit, its been done a few times

[Javal]

I hear you...

Although straight cut gears would do the trick methinks?

[dr1ft-pig]

possibly.... straight cut boxes dont have synchros correct??

T3 sponsor a car with a honda engine in it, so it has been done...







don't know if this helps or is relevant, but yeah... ^_^
