So as some of you on here know my Ukdm bb2 H23a2 engine on my 4th gen is dead and burried.
Now i have had a rethink and am really thinking about putting a new engine in the lude.
Is it possible to put in an h22 vtec engine in a h23a2 lude? Also if i did this does it matter that i have an automatic, or do extra things need to be done as a result??
Also does it matter if its jdm opposed to ukdm. Whats the benfits of putting in a jdm engine other than the fact that you can spoon chip the ecu.
Can you spoon chip a ukdm h22 vtec engine?
So what i am wanting to know really is there more mods you can do on jdm opposed to ukdm?
I relise if i go for a h22 vtec engine opposed to another h23a2 engine i will have to change the main computer ecu, is there anything i need to change and what?
Looking for a good condition engine but as cheep as possible! I have around £300 to play with (not much i know
)
Also how much does it cost for a garage to fit an engine as i would not have a clue.
And last but not least can i run my h23a2 KV85 ht leads on a h22??? They said they were made for my 2.3!
Anyhelp here guys would be great, but i must stress i can only do the engine conversion if the labour is cheep-HELP!
Cheers Will
