Ok, so i have a 95 accord Lx. If i were to get a JDM F20B with and auto tranny and the ECU, would it bolt up to my stock 5 speed and would it work basicly. I know I may need to change the harness or at the least add the Vtec wire. Any thoughts?
thanks

whoa from 5speed -> auto? unless you are getting the f20 for mad cheap u might as well get a h22. the f20 is a destroked h22 w/ less torque.

i couldnt ever imagine going DOWN in engine size... from a 2.2 to a 2.0...

its not so much the going down in engine size, its going up in horsepower and torque. I do agree though that the H22 is the best bet, i just may be able to get the F20 for cheep. Plus I kinda liek the blue valve cover.

If you like the moonblue valve cover on the F20B , you can also get the same valve cover moonblue on a H22A FYI

yea, i guess the H22 is teh best option to go, since i have an LX, how will that work with the Vtec?

Pretty damn easy, 3 wires, vtec pressure switch vtec solenoid and knock sensor, run them back to the ecu and your done. F20B is actually a great motor in an accord if found cheap as hell but the most complained thing i hear is the lack of interchangable parts. (IE: nothing at checker kragen or auto zone or anything)

dantastic

might as well get an h22. btw, you should be able to use your stock 5sp tranny

unless i'm mistaken u can use ur tranny with either engine the kick really is if u have a problem with the f20 u gotta get parts from ova seas where as having issues with a h22 u can drive to the nearest dealer or parts store
