Default How friendly is K20 swap into your chasis?

Hey guys I'm new to this generation - actually I don't have one but I'm starting to think about it.
I was just wondering if the k20 goes into your generation as the B16 goes into the EG, meaning can I use factory mounts, axles, wiring, fuel, coolant, power steering, etc.
It's more of a curiosity at this point but still something I'd like to know.
Thanks!

Hey.

No this isnt as user friendly as a b16a into EG

Do a search and u will come up with a full swap guide, but to sum it up,

U will need k20 engine/tranny, k20 axels ( 4 OR 5 lug) Kpro, or flashed ECU, hasport mounts, Civic SI subframe, and a lot of other misc hoses.

good stuff man, just to let u know.

Get an Em2, they are fun. Expensive, but fun.

I love my interior, wish everything was cheaper, but in time they will be the new "go to" chassis, like the EG/EK are now.
