Im in a big dilema
Maybe im just being paranoyed. As you all know most h22 swaps are with OBD1 JDM motors. Thats what i did on my 97 2.2. Should i fight to stay OBD2 on the ecu and try to have the immobiliser removed somehow on the 97 P5M or chill with this research nonsence and go OBD1. Im tired @ lookin at my monitor for days and days.

Also before i get jipped AGAIN by some mechanic whats a reasonable amount of money i should give to the guy converiting the car to manual. Keep in mind it will be done with a H22 tranny.

Thanks

 

Most mechanics if they are legit would like to see it first. I know a mechanic who has done it on a 97 Accord and said it was a pain in the ass because he quoted for one price but when it came down to doing all the work it ends up being a lot more. I think you'll spend between $1500-$2500 for that tranny swap as far as the OBD1 and OBD2 if you have a cool mechanic he may not even charge you for that since he is doing such an intense tranny swap. IMO

 

Where in Brooklyn are you? I know a guy in Jersey right across the Verrazano that when I get my H22 he is gonna put it in for me and he is good.

 

as long as you dont have to pass emissions, just get an obd2-obd1 adapter. its definately the way to go. i would recommend the p28 because it doesnt look for some of the sensors that like to give problems durring swaps. (egr, KS). is your car a 5spd or an auto.?

 

im auto right now and right now im considering doing the manual swap and the ecu conversion all in 1 i have someone by reference that wants $600 just for labor - i buy parts tranny flywheet clutch axels pedal i know someone else who wants $850 but he is one of them people who talks and doesnt want to listen im thinking of using a p28 or p72 together with a hondata s200 unit. If you guys have more info on this headache please dont be shy. Ill let u know how things come out.

 

its not that hard to swap to a manual. u will need the 5spd axles and half shaft from a 5spd cl or accord
pedal
resivoir
hard line
slave cyl
master cyl
shift cables
shifter assembly
5spd ecu

 

Its not hard to swap to a manual. All you need is:




A hotel preferably motel ( cost effecient )
or a secluded area
30-45 minutes of stretching
A chick who is willing
Lots of beer
Plenty of lubricant
and Vuala!



Enjoy!
