Icon2 Will this K20a fit in my car?

I have an automatic 1993 Honda Civic EG DX Hatchback with stock D15B7 engine and I want to swap it for this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/02-05-HONDA-CIVIC-EP3-ACURA-RSX-DC5-K20A-I-VTEC-ENGINE-AUTO-TRANS-JDM-K20A-DOHC-/251306273860?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a83056c44&vxp=mtr
Will that engine fit into my car? If so, what will I need?

YEA IT CAN FIT BUT YOU'VE GOTTA SWITCH IT TO MANUAL YOURE GONNA NEED A MANUAL TRANSMISSION AS WELL AS A CLUTCH&FLYWHEEL AND THROWOUT BEARING THEN YOU NEED A MOUNT KIT FUEL RAIL AND FUEL LINE KIT YOUR GONNA NEED SHIFTER AND LINKAGE KIT YOU ALSO NEED K-SWAP HEADERS AND A K-SWAP WIRING KIT AND A K-SWAP AXLE KIT YOU GONNA NEED A 1996 CIVIC DX THROTTLE CABLE AND YOURE ALSO GONNA NEED A ECU YOU CAN RUN STOCK OR A AFTER MARKET SUCH AS HONDATA OR AEM YOURE GONNA NEED A NEW CLUTCH LINE .



ITS A LIL BIT OF TIME AND MONEY BUT THE SWAP IS WORTH IT I MEAN YOU GOT BUILT ALL MOTOR K'S HITTIN 400 HORSE POWER AND HONESTLY THE TURBO K-SERIES HASNT EVEN HIT ITS FULL POTENTIAL YET I BELIEVE AS TIME AND TECHNOLOGY PROGRESS FORWARD I BELIEVE WE WILL SEE 2000 HORSE POWER TURBO K-SERIES

I was thinking the same thing, but that's sooooo much more money, and it's not like I go racing, it's a multi-purpose car.
