Default B18C5 into a 93Si how difficult?

How hard is it to put a B18C5 into a 93Si Hatch?
Im sure someone has done it before, and any info would be helpful. What was needed that wasnt mentioned?
What should be done before putting engine in and then realizing something was missing?

you need motor trany, ecu, axels, type r /gsr engine harness, chiped ecu, (go to kenji) if it is a jdm motor you will need a usdm vetc solinoid. You will a so need a new cat to bolt up to the header. swap is simple. get a 8mm punch and hammer for the bitch pin on the shift linkage. I did the same swap in 4 hours

If you know what you're doing, it's cake.

There are several threads on this.

With A Haynes or Helms manual and Honda-Tech you should have no problem, just do your reasearch, search honda-tech, and enjoy the experience

That's great. Honda-Tech and a Haynes are all the information you need to do this swap. Read up on everything that you can, and take your time.

It bolts in. Use your STOCK SI ENGINE HARNESS... NOT the B18C5 harness... you will need to extend a few wires, but everything should be plug and play. Chipped P28 for your ECU.
