Crazy swap, but it's bcuz the H22 is the most powerful AND cheapest honda motor you can buy. And everybody knows Honda is the king of fwd motors - high revving, powerful, durable and reliable. Of course the Nissan motors would've been easier, but can't get mad at ingenuityand originality.
Yeah I like the 84-87 AND the newer body style myself. But I saw two of wes' body style at a drift event in englishtown, nj. both with 1j swaps. Yours looked good but it seemed like u got an open diff or an inop lsd. I think mine went on my MK3 and it looked similar doin donuts. Hey wes, did you...
That's what i was talking about when I said I wanted to know where you read that from...cuz love both those motors and I like to learn what you know about em. And I just had 2 take a while to get my point across last reply.
There's a meet going on in my area on Sunday, March 29th at 12:00 NOON, at Liberty State Park in Jersey City, NJ.
I'm posting this up on different forums to help with the turnout. I just read about it on B20VTEC (for those of you who have Honda DD's or projects) so there will be A LOT of...
Btw, there are different skylines. They're not all GT-R's. There are plain skylines, the gts, gts-t (with the RB25DET), and i'm sure there are others. It's been built since 1956. The first was the Hakosuka GT-R.
TBCMORRIS, wow. Cool saying, but true cus it's one of the best V8's ever made. JDMMA70, i'd like to see where you got that info from - where you read it.
And FYI, I own the DVD with the RB26DETT swapped Top Secret MK4 one gold AND one white. It's called Midnight 200MPH Blast (world's top...
BTW black89T, I think I speak for everyone when I say thanks and WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT??!! A solid connection. I never knew of another way to do it and i'm new to this wiring thing.
I checked everything and no blown fuses or bulbs. I have a voltage spike - past 18v anytime I go past 3500rpm due to the alternator or voltage regulator - and I think it blew my relay. Either that or I broke the red/black wire from the relay connector that I had to bend to strip it. Does anybody...
I have a couple of questions. How long did your 35W or 55W HID's work til they blew? What are Hella E-Codes? And how do you set up a OEM retrofit - like TL ballasts & bulbs - to our cars?
I have a 90 and I just put a low beam HID kit in. But I had no foglights so shortly after that, I did a foglight rewire.
I taped the red-green foglight switch wire with the white-black defroster switch wire.
Then I got under the dash and found the foglight relay, cut the black protective...
Yeah G/L with the buildup. I got a N/A Targa too. It's a 90. No pics yet, but mine has some dents also But it's running, it rides nice, and it's bone stock with the undertray too! (But it's held up in the front with zipties LOL!!) I got a list of upgrades and things in order, but money is tight...
I'm just curious as to why you guys want to keep your engine. I have a N/A too, but i read about someone on another thread who went turbo and actually missed their N/A. So this all piques my curiosity. I may just rebuild my original motor...or go turbo. Anybody want to go turbo too? And why?
Wow this looks like fun...unfortunately I don't think i'll be able to make it. My car might not be up and running by then. Even if it was, I would only be able to stay for a lil while and head back north to work. But if I do go, are you NY and CT guys heading down the turnpike? Cuz the Garden...
Yeah let me know how that comes out. I may need to do that myself considering that i'm looking for a front clip also to get the best 1JZ possible with ALL the parts included. Where'd u get yours from and if you're going to open it up, how do the internals look? I hear some importers sell "low...
Sorry about the messed up reply but i said i need one now because my door locks don't work - manually or power - from the inside and the key dosen't work! That ever happened to you?
Yeah I hope u get it too. Even if he says $500 firm, get it because you'll kick yourself for not getting a good platform for cheap when u had an unbelievable rare chance, even if it is a shell. I know I did. Especially when u see a bad onedone up like you COULD HAVE had later on down the line.
Thx everybody. I may just stick to my guns and do the swap. I found the Translated 1jz Manual online. Excuse me for being new. Just had to look harder. I'll keep ya'll posted and ask for help if/when needed.
