No, that motor is way too big to fit in that tiny car. It's an Integra motor in a Civic, just not possible.

Now that I got that out of the way... You'll need the mounts, rear bracket, axles, and shiftlinkage. You'll also need to do some wiring: http://www.ff-squad.com/tech/wiring/wiring.92-95.jpg I'd advise getting a manual if you don't know where these wires are coming from. And also having someone who is familiar with the swap (or B-series Civic swaps) to help you.

WTF are you talkin' about? It totally is possible, he'll just need mounts axles and a harness! Quit misinforming people!

And Civic/Integras are pretty much the same chassis just different body panels!!!!!

Clearly I was just messing with him. Did you just read those 2 sentences or did you read my whole post? Why would I tell him all the parts he needs and give him a link to the wiring if I was serious? It's better than me doing the other option of writing "fucking search newbie." Would that have been better? And no the chassis are not the same, the engine bay may be the same or almost the same but the rest of the physical chassis isn't; width, length, height...quit misinforming people :rolleyes: Had he actually looked around, I don't know say the top of this forum and looked at the " The COMPLETE 92-00 Civic Owners Engine Swapping Guide!! (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=19176)" then he wouldn't have even had to ask. Don't be such a whiny bitch.

They are pretty much the same b/c for one 90% of the suspension stuff is interchangable between the two.

BTW I did read your whole post.

Did you make sure that you connected the right wires on the engine harness side with the harness to the ECU side? Did you make sure to wire up the red and yellow points on that ECU pinout at the top?
