Default Getting my engine soon. What all do I need?

My b18c5 should be coming in the next week or so, and I want to get a comprehensive list of what all I'll need to get it in properly. I've already got a Kenji re-chipped p28 on the way, but I know I'll need more.

It's a JDM 98 ITR, and it's going into my 95 EX Coupe. I know that hoses and belts should all be changed, what else do I need? I'm doing it myself, with a bit of help from the guy who painted my car.

I read something about the oil pressure sensor, that I'd need to take it from another vtec engine, will the one from my D16Z6 work? It's hydrolocked, with a good chunk of block missing, so it's not like I'm gonna be able to sell it...

How much oil, how much transmission fluid, what parts that will need to be replaced when I put the new axles in, etc...

Thanks in advance, can't wait to get my car back on the road.

I actually have both those threads bookmarked, and I will agree that they are very useful, and may be exactly what I need; However, the first one is about a 96-98 civic, and I have a 95. That may be exactly what I need, but I don't know that. It has specific notes about the one and two piece engine harnesses, and I don't know if that'll apply to mine.

The second one I will be using when I do my swap, but it's about the GSR instead of the ITR, and I seem to recall hearing a couple odd things regarding the JDM ITR, such as the oil pressure sensor, which I can't find JACK about in either of those threads.

I just dropped a helluva lot of money into my car, and got myself into some nice hefty debt to do this, and instead of "hey, congrats, welcome to the hybrid community, here's a couple great threads, and these are the search terms I used if you need more" I get a response like that.
