Swapping a 90 Integra Motor into my 93Civ.
Hi guys,
I would first like to thank anyone for any advice or info. provided. I am a noob. I just got into the tuner scene and have always been into American Muscle, but FINALLY realized imports are far superior. I love my new car. Its a 93 civic ex with a D16z6 with short ram air intake and cat back ex. I just bought a 90 Integra B-18 engine for $250! cause the kid needed to get rid of it and has hardly any miles on it and is in good shape. It came with the axles and extra power steering pump and compressor as well and I even got a couple after market spoilers too! Im pretty happy about it. I have been around cars for a long time so I am no stranger to turning a wrench, but this is all new to me so Im reading everything I can get my hands on.
1. My main questions are when I get a tranny does it need to be from a 90 integra or just from that genration (LS).
2. what ecu do I need?
3. what injectors should i use
4. is there a kit I could buy to make it easier
5. what mounts should I use
And anything else I forgot to mention. Any advice appreciated and correct me if I say something wrong.
Thanks guys.

Rear mount and Bracket -> Use any '94 - '01 integra manual transmission rear T bracket with the original civic rubber mount
Upper transmission bracket -> you can either reuse the original civic one or one from a '94 - '01 integra, again this assumes your running a manual tranny
Lower torque mounts, use the integra brackets and reuse the original civic rubber mounts. If you wish to retain A/C and power steering use the bracket from a '94 - '97 Del Sol Vtec.

I would run Hasport mounts and the OBD1 to preobd conversion harness can be found at www.rywire.com
