I'm ready to do my swap already but ...
I would really like someone's last opinion. I drive a 97 EK, I'm going with a B18C JDM TYPE R. I've already gone ahead and done millions of searches and have gathers lots of info on this swap, but can anyone PLEASE post a detailed "HOW TO INTO AN EK" with a list of the things I'm going to need as far as Motor Mounts, A/C bracket, Wiring. Thanks alot guys

I do not have all the information for you but I will tell you what I do know...
1: You need B-series Shift Linkage.
2: Convert to OBD-1 using a downgrade plug and an OBD-1 P72 Gsr ECU.
3: You are going to need all of the GSR mounts except for the lower front passenger tranny mount..
4: To keep A/C, you will want to use a GSR A/C condensor, they do make a kit to use a D-Series A/C piece with the Gsr mount... Look into it, I am not sure who makes it
5:You are going to need GSR upper and Lower radiator hoses...
You will need a wiring diagram, I am not sure about the wiring in the OBD-2 cars, sorry. I am not sure about the exhaust inyour car either...I am pretty sure that you can use the throttle cable that you have in the car now...
Good Luck
anyone, feel free to edit this if it is not accurate...

Re: (bigblockEG)
Cant I use the type r ECU that im getting with the motor? How many mounts exactly do I need then. And as far as the A/C i thought i can use the 96 del sol bracket part #38930-P54-000. What year motor would be better to get OBD1 or OBD 2
