ZC DOHC will drop in using your existing mounts. However, if you want to use a 5spd dx/si/zc transmission and axles you will need to change your hubs to either dx or si hubs.

the ZC trans uses an intermediate shaft which will require equal length axles. You will need 90-93 integra ls axles for the zc trans(i believe). For an Si/dx trans you will need si or dx axles. For whichever trans you get you will need si/dx hubs

if you get the dohc trans you need to get a ZC intermediate shaft w/ 90-91 non abs integra axles. SI axles won't work, the SI hubs wil work with the integra axles though. one of the most common questions i see, if you search you will find all your answers.
