Default 92 civin dx swap

Whats up guys
I have a 92 civic dx auto Stock
I wanna do a swap with an 05 acura tsx

Car has 10k original and was hit pretty good back in 06 and sitting ever since

i have the motor Trans wire harness ecu and whatever else i would need outta the acura

I know ill need some hybrid mounts but from where?

What else would i need?

Can i buy new honda axles and use new or old acura inner joints?

Think that would be enough power for that car?

Emissions would now be obd2 or still dyno?

Also would need more stopping power... Any suggestions?

Like the title says, I'm tired of seeing all the "what do I need for this" etc. posts and I really just hate saying "Search, you'll find answers." While the answers ARE out there they aren't 100% easy to find. I found them on the site, but I've also looked for a while.

This is what you want, THE K20/24 SWAP PARTS LIST. Items are also loosely categorized and are meant to be the cheapest possible way to complete the swap. Please keep in mind this may not be 100% accurate to what you want to accomplish but it's damn close! Here it is!

This should be absoloutley EVERYTHING you need to complete a K20/24 swap, Minor variances will be there as this list is meant for an EG only because It's what I own However it should be 95% of what you need for EK/DC2 aswell.

That should be it, Correct me if you see something wrong. Hopefully this stops all the "Zomg what do I needz" posts...

I was actually thinking about just dropping the motor and trans in doing some fuel work the rear brake system and rolling it to someone with a bit more experience with this. Im a tech for honda but never did a swap except for same in and out. More along the lines of is it worth it? My 92 doesnt have any power but only has 80k on it thought was take the old out try to sell it with whatever money i get work the head... Any and all feedback wpuld be great

You claim to be a Honda tech, yet ask questions about a K-swap that has been around for almost 10yrs now? Let someone who knows what they're doing....do the swap for you.
