Getting rebuilt engines inside your Honda: difficult motor swaps.

:: rebuilt engines ::

JDM rebuilt engines are great for powering up your ride. A carefully JDM rebuilt engine can significantly boost your power up as long as you keep things perfectly fit. However, some motor swaps can become a real pain in the neck, involving heavy modification and rebuilding to your car. Although you can make these engine swaps feasible with enough money, sometimes it might not be worth the extra job. No matter how good the rebuild engine appears to be, it simply might not be a good plan to materialize the swap.

Based on what type of OBD platform a specific car comes equipped with, it might not be a good idea to make the motor swap. Basically speaking, planting engines with a lower OBD setting into a car with a higher OBD standard presents heavy wire rebuilding factors that can become very difficult and unpractical. This is true for cars and engines of all generations. Specifically speaking, fourth generation Civics pose a problem when it comes to engine bay clearing because, depending on the engine it might leave you out of space for other interesting upgrades such as a turbo.

Fifth generation Civics pose a problem for OBD0 engines found in earlier cars, so you can run into some rewiring problems as in the case of 4th generation models. H22A motors inside these cars might be very attractive, though the extra 60 lbs. require the user to know what he’s doing.
