This are all the things that are wrong with this write up...from v4lu3s,

here is the list of errors i have seen:

since when does a 5th gen need to have a new tranny mount bracket welded on for a 5 spd conversion??

since when did EX accords get any different front brake sizing than lx/dx??

and when the hell did a 94-95 accord become a 4th gen? and 96-97 is all that is th gen???

they say get a 97 prelude ecu...i guess they dont know that it comes with an immobilizer?? (or wasa that 98+ only??)

they say to avoid h22a4...i guess they dont know ALL h22's from the US were a4 from 97+.

they claim the auto h22a only made 180hp....i guess they dont know that somehow those 180 hp count for more since auto h22a's run the 1/4 almost as fast as 5 spds.

last i heard you shaved the driver side mount not cut, tweaked and reaaragned it.
it is nice that hahsport has a mount for that though. (though they dont sell it yet as far as i know)

i wonder if any of them has seen that using more prelude mounts leads to more crooked engine in the bay.

wiring done by hasport?? i dont know if any o fyou have called them...but last time i did they were very dismissive of accords.

they didnt get the axles right as well....they need to read that factory manual to see that axle lengths are not the same and lead to problem.

they had teh ghetto rigged power steering line rather than using all stock parts. i know it works, but its nto as clean an install imo.

and here is a funny one....they say use a cixic dx map sensor....whats wrong withthe accord one that is sitting next to your recently swapped accord???

did anyone make a bracket for their throttle cable?? thats the first i have ever heard of that.

and when the hell did stock h22a's get an ecu that lets them rev to 8200 rpm??? shit i want one of those....
