Dropped The H22 In The Honda Civic - First Ever Engine Swap

  • The time has finally come. The first ever engine swap is complete. And after a total of 4 occasionally frustrating hours the h22a has dropped into the ek civic hatch. The engine is a tight fit, and i mean tight, almost concerning. but it works and i am glad to have reached this milestone. Quickly going over the episode in the beginning i complete some additional sound deadening on the rear end panels. First, i seal it with some leftover por15 to ensure a stronger barrier against moisture. I also used some Krown lubricant oil to double up on protect. I am paranoid of rust and don't want all that hard work to be spoiled by rust. so hopefully, fingers crossed I have done a good enough job preventing that issue. Anyways after that, I moved onto the engine. Basically rethreaded all the bolt housings to make it easier to install the brackets while the engine was going to be dropped into place. Avoiding cross threading is important at this point. The engine was tough, especially because you cannot hit it straight up and level and drop it. the transmission end has to drop to the ground on a 45-degree angle and then you can balance out the rest bit by bit. I mounted the driver side mount first to help guide the rest, the transmission was second then the rear mount. All and all a long 4 hours but definitely a learning experience. Hope you like it because I am stoked for what's next.

    dude.. love your chanel.. amazing work.. i wouldnt be too concerned about rust, you did a hell of a job..i dont recall if you did this or not but if you havent- get some HIGH QUALITY rubberized coating and spray the inside of the wheel wheels ... it will add extra support against rock chips, depris, dirt, and sand flying up and chipping your Quarter panels.. also an added layer of protection to the PR15... i plan on swapping my EK too, was it hard? will be my first swap as well.. probably gonna go with a B series.. you have a snapchat man? Again, great content dude- keep up the hard work!!!!

    Hey man the shell is coming out SOOOO clean!! What is the sealant you we’re using to do the underside of the shell and in the grooves and corners of the floor?? I NEED to know!! I’m also doing a project ek hatch and it looks like that stuff really works! PLEASE let me know!!

    • @GarageSpeCivic
      @GarageSpeCivic  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      The main product that i used to seal it was POR15. There is quite a bit of prep work required for applying that product but in the end can shed some really nice results. And can also last for a long time as well. In the groves i tried to get in there with a brush of the por15 and soaked it in there hoping it seeped in tough to reach areas.

    • @savethecivic96
      @savethecivic96 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Garage SpeCivic alright because I was thinking about buying spray rubber for the underside of my shell but I mean is their a lot of prep work before applying it?

    • @GarageSpeCivic
      @GarageSpeCivic  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      More prep the better. If you dealing with a rusty underneath I suggest fixing that first before applying a rubber undercoating. Rubber undercoats can cause issue down the line that if water is still there where you sprayed, it will be trapped and over time rust will spread fast. If you scrape the flaky rust if you got it, and convert it, just throw an oil based painted over it and rubber coat if you want. But take your time and good luck

      It's not that bad. Swap mounts, shifter box cables, axles can be da or dc2 depending on what half shaft you use. Or can use swap axles. You can use the stock civic harness. Will need to extend the alternator wires. Few other wires that you will see. Most of it is plug and play. I swapped a f23a into a ek civic. Damn close to doing a h22 swap.

      @GarageSpeCivic  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      i went very slow. scuffed the paint a little bit by the transmission side. Used towels and stuff to protect the paint as much as i could. once i got the idea of how extreme of an angle you had to drop in the engine, it went pretty in pretty easy. Took a little time having to attempt to drop it and pull it out, adjust the strap angle and so on. But if you go in right off the bat at a 45 degree angle the drop should be fast. 2 people helps too. That engine fills up the bay though. Someone recommended lifting the front end though and sliding the engine from the bottom. Definitely would avoid fiddling with the transmission side as it can be tricky.
