Before you berate me with things like its too heavy and too thin walled i just like to get out in the open i am putting and H22 in a 92 civic dx hatch. It currently has a Turbo LS in it which i am dropping into my delsol as a daily driver. Thus my hatch will be a strip car so under steer not an issue.
Well heres the prob... I have heard that there are issues with the wiring when doing the swap but i can't find the perticulars anywhere on line... is it just that the resistor box needs to be wired in or is the main harness completely diffrent... i understand that i will have to run wires for the vtec sol. knock sensor as well as the other two wires i can't remember off top my head (done several GSR swaps) but is it more involved then that... I plan on boosting this thing till it blows up so getting it running is the first step... Any help on the wiring would be awsome.......
One more thing i heard you don't have to buy swap axles if you mix the CVs and half shafts... does any one know for sure the proper combo it'll save me a buck or two while I'm tunning the thing.

Don't boost the hell out of the stock motor, it's a waste of a good motor. But here is a wiring pinout of the H22 ecu (AcesHigh is the man): http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/t211027.html
Here's the axles explained: http://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=434668
And I believe this is the right setup for the resistor box; though the pic says 99/00 Civic Si, there is a member on there that said it was the right one for his h22 swap. So if it's right cool, if it's not sorry: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=222366
Good luck on the swap it's killer. My buddy had a turbo h22 (built the motor first though) in his 4dr that he's moving to his VX, should haul some major ass.

No problem. You know about what you have to do to the tranny motor mount and how to cut for the shiftlinkage? If you need any of that info I've got a decent pic of the mount and if you go to honda-tech.com on their EG+ forum their FAQ page has a ton of pics and info on there for it.
