what model is your hatch? does it have vtec currently? what ecu will u be running? what obd and year is the motor your putting in? as far as wiring goes if your keeping obd2 you should just have to run vtec wires, and i had to change iether my iat or iacv plug from a three pin to a 2 pin. and of course vtec plugs. plugs are cheap u just gotta find someone whos got em. and you will at least need your primary 02 sensor from your old motor (if the new one doesnt have one)

use your ek top mounts. you wll need front tranny mount, a/c bracket, rear si bracket. use your stock harness if its vtec and if its not you can either use the stock one and add vtec wiring or get a 96-98 vtec harness. also get a 96-97 gsr ecu
