A new project in the making????
so you couldn't find the motor or a sponser? if your looking for a RB26 i have some friends that own a shop that import..i can get whatever you want...its not about being different or any of that ****..its about doing what you love...i don't give a damn if you put a H22 in it..its yours do what makes you happy..i was only trying to make you understand that its a no joke,expensive, hard swap..thats it..i was just making sure you knew what you were getting into
But like I said, I'm going to go on and do the rb25 for now, and later on do the rb26.
I was going to do it for the challange, and also it was going to be my track car.
Thanks for the help on letting me know that your able to get motors, I'll keep that in mind.
It doesn't bother me if I have sponsors or not, If I do it all myself, I can claim I did it with no help. but sponsors would be nice as I could get the help on the parts when needed.

ca18det
rb20det
rb25det
neo rb25det

vq35
vg30dett
ls1

those are all the swaps that I know that can be done!
Anyways it doesn't matter what motor you swap, a swap is a swap!
the the H22 is a torqless beast LOL i got drive my accord with a h22 swap and it feels all blah... the clutch is all soft and the gears are all soft and when you step on the gas it feels like a fly just went into your eardrums... then you look at the speedo and your doing 70 WTF LOL
got into my 240 feel all manly with my hard clutch and solid feeling shifter and i hit the gas feels like ima break my neck and i look down im going 30 lmao

H22's are ****ing garbage.. i beat the hell out of my buddies turbo H22 accord one like 8 pounds..gotta love that heat soak...yeah, i wouldn't trade my pig for a honda, i like the feeling of RWD, Turbo, and the main thing TORQUE!!!!!haha
nah H22 are good engines... in hondas i dont bash or flame hondas infact i love to work on hondas thats where i make the big money LOL but the K20 is a better engine then the H22 lol.
funny story well i had this misconception of N/A GS-R's being fast one day a customer came in with a GS-R teg and had alot of stuff done to it (more stuff then i had done to my sr) and when i was done fixing it i took it on a test drive......... damn i was so disapointed it felt slower then a KA... maybe i was spoiled by the RSX type-s i drove everyday and i was expecting atleast the same performance with all those mods but nope.

the ONLY honda that i would call myself a fan of is the K20A1 out of a DC-5 integra in like an EG Hatch..thats about all...when i started in the scene all my friends drove hondas..i thought a few were fast...then along came my SR..yeah, you can picture the rest
Anyways thank you for the high jacked thread for honda motors!!!
anyways back on the target please!
after some more studing, It seems like that the rb25 swap is very very close to the rb26 swap, minus a few things that aren't needed.
*I've got a price on a r33 front clip already.
*I'm going to use the syko performance install kit, which I will have to use the stock r33 crossmember, but it lets the motor set lower, and closer to the firewall for better weight distribution.
*I'm going to get a driveshaft shop one peice steel driveshaft.
*I'm going to keep the stock intake manifold for now.
*Mckinney Motorsports FMIC, for some reason I like how the in/out ports are on the IC
*I may go on and get (ALL NEW) Timing Belt, Oil Pump, Water Pump, etc., but it depend on how much money I got left after getting everything in
*Oil Cooler
*Oil Filter Relocation kit (I looked for these but couldn't find any, does any company make them
)
*Koyo Radiator, Its not a easy fit from what I've read, but I may modify the support alittle, and give it a angled placement or so, not sure yet, I'll have to get everything in to see what happens.
*FAL Dual Fans #220
*Turbo Timer
*Exedy HyperSingle Clutch/Flywheel Kit
I'm not going to do any power adders right off the bat, I need to drive it for awhile and get use to the power and then handling of the car.
I've noticed that the rb25 doesn't have a great aftermarket support, whats up with that, or am I just looking at the wrong places
anyways thats what I have planned for now!

not to keep trying to talk you out of it, but you really are wasting money dumping an sr for an rb26. if you want a challenge, tear down the sr, rebuild it, put in a stand alone, and pour your money in to a nice twin scroll setup. that's more challenging than an rb26 swap.
