3. where can i get a drum to disk conversion kit for my accord?
any help would be great
1. The Axles are a direct swap, as are the transmissions(the f22a transmission will bolt up to the h22a engine and vice versa).
2. As far as i know they pretty much share suspension(not positive on that) but a 2" drop on the fourth gen will GREATLY improve handling, just dont get coil overs they suck and you will bounce all over the place even when you hit the smallest bump in the road.
3. I know for a fact that the 93 SE accord had 4 wheel disk brakes and im pretty sure that the 93 ex had 4 wheel disk brakes. But unless you are going for looks, then the TENZO-R big brake conversion is the best way to go. The rear disk conversion doesnt improve stoping much more than your drums are cappable of. Unless you wanna start breaking rotors though(speaking from exprience) you will need to upgrade to big brakes in the front, but only if you are planning on running high speeds alot (above 115 or 120).

If your pockets are deep the F22 has masive potential, just pick up the July 2005 Issue of Sport compact car. They have a fully built all motor f22 putting down 341.6hp and 247.6ft lbs of torque to the wheels. There is the japanese F22B that is DOHC non-VTEC(its basicly an H23A) that you can swap in for a little boost in HP and they are a really cheap swap. But if you ask me there is no better engine than the h22a. It cost a little bit more but i gurantee with out a doubt when you drive your car with that engine in it for the first time, you wont be able to do any thing but smile. I was speachless when i drove mine for the first time, well except to say HOLY SHIT this thing is fast. Its that big of a diffrence.
