H22A7 inlet swap

Post by jasonxr2racer » Tue Feb 10, 2015 8:07 pm

Right i have fitted the H22A7 inlet to my H22A bottom end in my BB8 Prelude racecar

I am now noticing the some of the sensors incl the Air Intake temp sensor has a different plug

Is there a sensor i can use from a different Honda/other car to fit The H22A7 inlet with a round plug instead of the square one?

Cheers

I just cut the plug off and fitted 2 small spade style crimps. Sorry it doesn't help with keeping the plug but it's just my solotion :)

I think I may have a redundant plug to suit on the loom to use but if not I'll just do that cheers

You could always do what I did and block off the sensor port on the front of the manifold and the retro fit the standard Prelude sensor somewhere else convenient...

Ah. Rather than looking for a sensor to fit both the manifold and the Prelude connector (Which I don't think exists), you'll have better luck getting hold of the ATR connector and splicing it in... Assuming the ATR sensor reads the same and you can use it.

I had the blanking plates made up myself.

hmm looking at this post makes me wonder if I need some ATR loom :? Currently I have;
H22 bottom end
H22A7 head
H22A7 inlet but with the two usual ports blocked and IACV convertor plate.

will i be able to just plug in my Prelude loom to all this? or will I need any ATR sensor/plugs/wiring that anyone can think of? :oops:

You can use your Prelude dizzy and alternator as those two items have different connectors between OBD1 & 2.
