integra axles will work, you need to use yur stock engine harness, rear t mount off 99 si, im assuming since i used a 99 si block mount in my eg that the integra block mount will work for you, anyways, you need the transmission mount off your d16 transmission, you need the integra shift linkages, and a b series ecu, and you should be good, very simple swap

on average 500+ but sence your going b series, you dont really need to buy anything besides the auto to manual conversion mount, pedles, clutch lines, master clynder.
if you dont go b you will, need, manual tranny, clutch flywheel, manual starter bolts and do the iacv fix, and a lil wiring will be needed for each. i suggest getting a manual engine harness.

B18C5/transmission - $3-4000 if you buy from hmotors
5 speed swap parts - $500
Other various replacement parts/fluids/etc - $200
Labor (if you don't swap it yourself) - $1-2000 unless you get a deal
Honestly, (and I know you won't listen because all 15 year olds know everything) you're better off without a fast car in high school.
I'm almost 30, and if I would have had the car I have now back then, I probably would be dead. I came close enough with a 20 year old 100HP grampa car.
There's no feeling in the world like doing a 720 on 6" of gravel at 80 mph, with a 4 foot deep ditch on either side of a one lane road.

For real? Start saving. Do you have a job? Please don't tell me your parents are paying for this.

its so funny seeing people that even after having a manual car for so long still cant drive it. Taking off and especially parking just riding the clutch and non stop revving haha and it kills me that people dont rev match when downshifting you just watch the car jerk and the front end flop down. and then slowing down they push in the clutch pedal and just hit the brake. I engine brake and heel toe downshift all the time I hardly ever have to use much force on my brake pedal. it takes time to learn but people that have been doing it for a year or so and goon it up just facepalm. anyways i'm looking to do the same swap and I have the same car model and year so this thread could be very usefull.
