Default newbie to eg, need help wit swap

sup fellas, after 2 ef's , i decided 2 get a hatch, traded my crx 4 a 92 cx, shell with b18a, from what i have i searched so far i looks like i need a hydralic tranny cause b18a r cable or i can get ha sports conversion thing. what year model axles do i get? i have b series mounts , not sure on shift linkage.
1. if i have stock shiftlinkage , will i have to modify it?
2.what year model axles do i get?
3.what ecu do i use?
4. Should it be a strait foward swap?
5. any good web pages with set by step instructions.
i have already used the search , and i dont like the way it is set up, any info would be helpful. and i ll post some pics soon

2-Any stock civic(92-95) axles
3-The B18 ECU (search ebay for B18A...should come up with ECU code exp72)
4-Aside from the usual wiring and whatnot - yes.
5-Hmmm, I have always just used the search.

as said above,you can't use d-series civic axles..
the P72 is a GSR ECU-not what you need.you need an OBDI non-VTEC teg ECU-a P74.
look here for all the info you need:

what you said can easily be confused with meaning you meant to get a P72.he needs an ECU from a 92-95 OBDI B18A or B18B-not all B18a's were OBDI.

Perhaps they were the B series. I SERIOUSLY thought they were the D series.

thats impossible. B series are shorter and require halfshalf/intermediate axle. D series driver side is full length from wheel to transmission.

Hmm, perhaps I did grab the b-series ones. The 2 sets(b and d series) were laying by one another when I did the swap. Damn I'm an idiot. on me.
