Default 97 Gsr into 97 Civic hatch... diirect bolt swap???

Ive heard that the 97 gsr would bolt right into the civic with little or no extra mods. But ive noticed that the drivers side gsr's engine mount looks diferent than the civic driver side engine mount on the target car. I will soon be posting pics for a better idea. If any one knows wat i should do about the two enigine mounts let me know. Thanks ahead!

you wiil need a 99-00 civic si rear bracket, and the right motor mount bracket(driver side) out of a 99-00 si or a 94-97 del sol equiped with a b series, everything else is cake, u r going to use the EK harness and just add up the vtec,vtec oil press, and knock wires to the ecu

NA IS BEST!!

Yeah you also might need to change a few plugs here and there and extend a wire or two. It would be even easyer if you could find an EX EK wiring hardness... Also you will need a gsr throttle cable unless you can getto rig your stock one( I did this at first but the throttle was only opening 3/4 of the way). I have found that the stock fuel line is a bit short for the B18. The rest you will figure out as you go...
