found you while searching and I have to say you have made a great detailed video that shows every step and why and is 1000x better than Haynes or any other book or instructions I have found.
MRFABIO, this was a fun video to watch. Don't sell yourself short. You definitely are mechanically inclined and seems like you've done this before. Even though you didn't record everything it's still 100 times better and easy to understand than most videos on here. Great quality and good editing. It's good to see how you started and ended with good results. Thanks for making the video my friend.
For anyone needing additional help. I did this swap on my 1998 Honda Accord ex f23a1 with baxa trans to jdm f23a1 mgpa trans. Super easy. I used EVERY sensor off my old eng/trans on the JDM motor/trans, some sensors are the same, some are not. Doesn’t hurt to swap all of them even though I think the only ones you NEED to swap are the transmission sensors. Used the intake and exhaust manifold off the bad engine. Powersteering pump on JDM motor has a 90 neck on the inlet pipe. you can use it but it’s gonna take lengthening your old hose or just using your power steering pump off your old motor. Make sure you use Honda brand DW1 transmission fluid. If you’re reusing your old radiator make sure you flush the trans lines and part of radiator that the trans fluid runs through. I added an inline transmission filter and a transmission cooler, you don’t need that but it can only help. Make sure you have good ground connections. I made a few of my own and hid them. Battery to block, block to frame, frame to body, Battery to body, blah blah blah. Change your timing belt on your new motor before you put it in. And when you get done with all that. drive the car. Get it up to operating temp. Put it in park. Turn all lights and accessories and hvac stuff OFF. then rev the engine to 3000rpm and hold it there for 5 mins. To let everything relearn/reset. My Speedometer is slightly off due to the jdm transmission having different gear ratios. No check engine light and running like a champ.
Great job man!! I'm actually pulling my trans sat morning to change clutch and rear main so watching a few videos just to get familiar. 01 accord, 247k on original clutch. It's finally slipping bad enough it needs changing. My car is very clean and motor runs great so as u said, I just can't junk it!! I'd rather just try do it myself, damn sure not paying anyone... timing belt wp soon to follow
The lower balljoint can come off super easy loosely have the castle nut on the bottom jack up til the suspension compresses and stick something metal inbetween the knuckle and lca then lower the jack
Where are you from with the old school Italian accent? You in little italy in nyc? Wondering, you just don't hear that slange no more....I'll be doing mine very soon myself thanks for all you show, N know. Hey!
kevin martinez damn I was doing a v6 3.0 but didn't know the replacement I bought was out of a acura cl. there's only one difference but it is making my life complete hell. Park Nuetral safety switch on the accord tranny is on the casing on the cl it is on the shifter.
It's not recommended for long term using 10w30 motor oil instead of Honda MTF will result in shifting issues with your syncros, especially increased wear. Better to use ALL HONDA fluids in Honda cars.
I love how you dive right into it with no fear. I know people who are scared to change their own battery.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Thanks man you really helped me take my engine out my Honda. Keep up the good work and hope to see more from you!
I am doing the same swap soon with a JDM engine. This video was very helpful in planning.
Thx u and all those u tube people who take their time for people like me. I appreciate u all from my heart
Pleasure is all mine brother
my accord is burning mad oil! im so glad you made this!
I have a 98 accord 5 speed.same issue .soon as I get the money I'm buying a complete rebuild kit and then seeing about the valve seals as well

Good video MR Fabio... I mean a lot better than any other videos in here
The lower balljoint can come off super easy loosely have the castle nut on the bottom jack up til the suspension compresses and stick something metal inbetween the knuckle and lca then lower the jack
When you could buy an Exedy clutch kit for $99. Good times..
this video is awesome! thanks for taking the time to do and post this. you rule bro!
👍👍
very creative with the engine removal. my rear mount is also a pain right now
Great video bro, thanks for taking the time to make it. I learned a lot
If you use liquid wrench and then heat the the bolts it makes it easier to loosen.
extremely helpful video.
SWEEEEEET!
Thanks I am looking a honda just like this for 500 you made me dicide to go with it
Congrats on a successful project. Your video is really helpful, too. We're about to do a similar swap because of burned engine valve (I think).
Let me know if you have any questions
I’m in New Hampshire and I’m doing the same job right now
Man, I miss New England, besides the rust.
Good job guy Alex checking in Memphis

Boston Massachusetts
@@themrfabio2459 Oh yeah, my sisters girl friend lives in Mass. Shes blown me away with her accent a few times.
I want to do the back motor mounts but don't know how to
with the engine in they are very hard to do because they get rusted in .
👍👍👍
how different is this than an automatic?
nice video and job
I got the New England accent...
can you find your khakis?
Also is that a v6 3.0
Crystal Montanez I4 2.3
kevin martinez damn I was doing a v6 3.0 but didn't know the replacement I bought was out of a acura cl. there's only one difference but it is making my life complete hell. Park Nuetral safety switch on the accord tranny is on the casing on the cl it is on the shifter.
what was the code at the end that it threw?
Utkarsh Raj broken knock sensor. the green round sensor next to oil filter
motor oil for the transmition?
Officer Joan yes

wats the d light flashing anybody no y and how to fix it
@richie lyons check transmission fluid. You may be running low
800th like lol
This is the most hack, unsafe way imaginable. Shit just make sure the trans fluid isn't low and this wouldn't of happened in the first place
Just shut the fuck up
