Default B18C1 engine swap into cx

If I were to do an B18C1 engine swap into a cx would I have to change anything other than brakes I heard the hubs dont fit?

mounts and wiring are the most important parts

direct bolt in swap. use integra mounts and the integra wiring harness. you will only have to wire in vtec, iab and knock sensor.

if your car is a 92 you dont need to wire vtec. if you use a skunk2 manifold you dont need to wire iab. and if you run a chipped p28 ecu you wont need to wire in a knock sensor.

only time hubs need changing are with a JDM 5 lug, or an 88-91 civic STD with the 4 speed. so far thats all i have come across. all 92-up should be fine.

also, you will need to wire in the 4 wire o2. i don't think all the wires are in the car harness.
