Si tranny is the best choice to use. If you use the DX, HF, or SI tranny, you can use your axles.

The true ZC tranny you can't, you'll need an intermediate shaft from the ZC and 90-93 Integra axles.

Wiring involves converting Dual point fuel injection to multi point.

All wiring info you need is here: http://hybrid.honda-perf.org/tech/4gdxtozc.html

and here: http://hybrid.honda-perf.org/tech/4gtech.html#ZC

It's the simplest swap for your car.
