I have a C1 in my EG, if your planning to use your P28 your going to have to chip it to run the DOHC motor. Aside from that you need a different mounts, for the drivers side upper and rear mount for sure. As for the engine harness you will have to add a knock sensor wire and swap some pins on your ECU. You can just get a set of GSR axels and they will work fine. I would sujest 2 things.

1. Checkout the Cspeed website as they have a awsome walkthrew.
2. Use the Search button here, before millions of people flame you for asking a question that has been asked millions of time before likley.

You can run your p28 but it only needs to be chipped for a higher red line and more fuel, with a p28 you don't use a knock sensor that's the plus side to using a p28, I would get a fuel pressure regulator+ gauge. All you stock mounts would work but they would suck so I would go for Avid or Hasport. Theres some more simple things but you need to search cause this has been covered hundreds of times

guy asks for help and you post trying to sell him ****, lame.

Look up at the list of stickies and you find everything you need. You can use a stock obd1 gsr engine harness and you should have no problems. You have a 92cx so vtec is already prewired.

Heres a link to a thread that will tell you everything you need as far as mounts and things like that. And some options on wiring.

Yo man I own a '92 hatch with a '99gsr, what you should deffinetly do is
chip the p28 for no rev. limit and no gov. like mine and it's gonna rip the streets.

you should def keep a rev limiter. you can mess **** up fast that way. Just set it above where your power falls off (if stock internals, just use stock limiter). Its slower to rev past that point anyways, unless you have cams.

i have a 92 cx and im putting in a 97 gsr...lemme tell you the details..
converting a obd1 car into obd2 isnt as bad as it really sounds...the eg civic to gsr is so easy ..it seems as though they were meant for each other..
its just that the 92 cx is an obd1 car and isnt prewired for vtec...youll have to buy a vtec wiring harness since its an obd2 engine, so just get the same year gsr wiring harness...
also i see that you live in california...i suggest you get it BAR'ed cuz if you get pulled over and you cant pass smog emissions or you got an engine check light on, say goodbye to your car or say hello to your $$$ going out just to make your engine legal...
1) get an obd2 motor just to make sure you can pass smog..not obd1...dont mix and match either...
2) get gsr axles
3) any 94+ integra shift linkage
4) your stock radiator will work...
5) your ecu cant be p28 if you want to pass BAR, but if youre a gangsta, go ahead w/p28...
6) again, keep everything stock internally if you want to pass bar, meaning pistons, cams, injectors etc...
7) im going with a gsr exhaust system...its about 12 inches longer than your eg one..so just cut off the tip..you dont need to weld anything ...
good luck...

so overrevving your motor is gonna make your car faster?

gsr axles...gsr engine harness would work great...my friend and i did a swap into a 92 cx...theyre prewired for vtec so we juss plugged the wiring harness into the shock tower...actually he did i suck at anything that comes to electrical...gsr motor mounts...as for ur p28...ur gonna have to get it rechipped...as some other people said in this thread its not a good idea to be revving higher than ur motor is supposed to...good luck
