Thailand Autotrader

I  have a very old 4 door Honda Accord and after years of service the engine is out of its brain. So there are a few options

1) scrap it, I would but Id get nothing for it and its a good little car the books all up to date and if someone scratches it who cares

2) repair it Thai style (sorry but I have never seen an Engine Built in Thailand that lasted more than a month or two and you never get a refund + its a slow engine anyway

3) pimp my ride, Cheap quick fix spend under 50,000 on here and see what we have at the end of it

So we are going to put a Honda H22A Engine in her

This engine is easy to find in Pattaya and Bangkok it comes out of Accord and Prelude

It produces 187 bhp to 217 bhp depending on the car it came out of

H22A

• Found in the Japanese 4th gen Prelude Si VTEC (2WS BB4 & 4WS BB1). It produces 200 PS (147 kW; 197 hp) @ 6,800 rpm & 161.50 ft·lbf (218.96 N·m) @ 5,500 rpm and comes with a black valvecover.
• Found in the Japanese 5th gen Prelude SiR (2WS BB6 & 4WS BB8). It produces 200 PS (147 kW; 197 hp) @ 6,800 rpm & 161 ft·lbf (218 N·m) @ 5,500 rpm and comes with a black valvecover.
• Found in the Japanese 5th gen Prelude Type-S and SiR S-Spec (BB6). It produces 220 PS (162 kW; 217 hp) @ 7,200 rpm & 163 ft·lbf (221 N·m) @ 6,500 rpm and comes with a red valvecover.
• Found in the Japanese 6th gen Accord/Torneo Euro-R (CL1). It produces 220 PS (162 kW; 217 hp) @ 7,200 rpm & 163 ft·lbf (221 N·m) @ 6,500 rpm and comes with a red valvecover.
• Found in the Japanese 5th gen Accord SiR Sedan (CD6). It produces 190 PS (140 kW; 187 hp) @ 6,800 rpm & 152 ft·lbf (206 N·m) @ 5,500 rpm and comes with a black valvecover.
• Found in the Japanese 5th gen Accord SiR Coupe (CD7). It produces 190 PS (140 kW; 187 hp) @ 6,800 rpm & 152 ft·lbf (206 N·m) @ 5,500 rpm and comes with a black valvecover.
• Found in the Japanese 5th gen Accord SiR Wagon (CF2). It produces 190 PS (140 kW; 187 hp) @ 6,800 rpm & 152 ft·lbf (206 N·m) @ 5,500 rpm and comes with a black valvecover.

The reason we picked this engine is because it is far cheaper than the Honda  K engines that are being snaped up for racing in Thailand. I have been told we will get an engine for 25,000 baht but will correct the price once ive been to Bangkok for a look round.

The other things to sort out will be a good set of brakes and the suspention is in need of a make over.
