If so, what size throttle body you running??
I have an OEM GSR throttle body; painted black. I simply swapped over a Civic throttle pulley and used an ITR cable bracket and throttle cable as well to make it work.

Here is the "how-to" that used to swap out my stock intake manifold for the Skunk2 one:

Thanks for that dude ^^
I currently run the stock B16A2 that came in the EG9, so can poach all the parts required off that.
Problem is I have a RHD car so I generally have to get Jap spec items, and lets just say that the RHD Throttle cable is an eyesore at best!

went out and tried to organize the garage/rats nest, trying to get back to working on the car, later on this month I should be ordering the rebuilt SU's, where does all this crap in the garage come from? I found an entire large bag of scooter wheels, I have no idea where they came from. All kinds of ****, I finally found my soldering gun, Looked for it all weekend, tore the house and garage apart, then found it in my toolbox in plain sight. Got new wires soldered on the civic Obd2 alternator plug, the wires were too short to work with, so I yanked off the insulation, soldered new wires on to the bare copper, and heat shrunk up everything. I finally found a source for reasonably priced glx type wire, that's the stuff with the high quality insulation, most aftermarket wire instantly melts, you get a short in a wire bundle, and before the fuse blows the insulation melts and melts other wires, then you have a mess. This stuff is high temp rated.

Hope all is on the mend with your wife dude ^^
As for mysterious items turning up in your garage, I often wonder about that myself.... went to the garage the other morning to see a DC2 subframe, LCA's & Shock forks..... turns out a mate doin a K20A-R swap into his EK9 had dropped them off for me to chuck through the parts wash at work. Perhaps someone has done summin random like this for you??

Can anyone tell me what fuel rails are interchangeable with an H22A one??
My mate has an H2B EK3, now the car is RHD, the engine is a JDM H22A, and the fuel rail on the EK is fed from the L/H Side of the car. Would a specialised fuel line need to be fabricated to feed the fuel rail from the R/H Side, or is there something like a B16A, B18C, etc fuel rail that can be interchanged with it??

ah ok. very nice. cant wait to see it all painted up. i started to paint my da and never finished it. the car is just sitting on jack stands again. it'll probably sit there for a while at this point. i have no ambition to work on it and am having way more fun working on my dc right now. once the dc is where i want it, then i'll once again take another stab at restoring my da and getting it painted as well
