I have a 94 civic that I just put a b16a engine swap into and I needed 93 or above intagra axles to put on and a intermediate shaft if it doesn't have one.(mine didn't). I bought the shift extention rod from a 95 del sol that had a b16a3 engine in it. the dealer wants $98 for it.(ant to bad.) Just tell them you need it for a b16a3 1.6L Dohc engine. the shift rod is fine. you'll need the ecu that comes with the engine or a b16a2 engine and your car has OBDII and just make sure the engine does aswell. The axles are $60ea at Advanced Autoparts and the intermediate shaft can only be bought from dealer($300) or junk yard($60). If your civic doesn't have v-tec already you will have to run the silinoid, oil pressure, and knock sensor wires to the ecu. Also I had to by a MAP sensor also cause my car didn't have one. ($158) at www.autozone. should mount right up exactly. hope I answered your questions.

Maby you should find a place that sells the complete swap. You will save lots of money if you dont have to part everything and you will save time too.
