-ECU
-OBD0 Alternator
-OBD0 Dizzy
-OBD0 b series injectors
-starter
-clutch/flywheel /prss plate
-90-93 thrttle cable
-90-93 integra rear bracket

Yes you will still need to hammer the frame some to fit the alternator
You also need axels. I can't remember if you need 90-91 or 92-93 axels or if there is even a difference.

-rear bracket from a 90-93 integra
-axles from a 90-93 integra along with the halfshaft
-throttle caable from an 90-93 integra or 88-91 si throttle cable
-clutch cable from a 90-93 integra, although i used my stock dx one and it worked fine
-as far as banging the frame for the alternator, i did this and after hooking it up i see i didnt need to do this. use a shorter belt if it rubs

what about your hubs? I'm pretty sure the 90-93 integra axles do not fit into the stock crx hubs. you'll either need to re-use your crx outer joints or swap the whole front brake assemblies with a set from a 90+ teg or 92+ civic.
plus you'll probably have to cut the front mount off the crossmember.
doesn't the HCP mounts come with the rear bracket?

Read alot about this "shorter than stock alternator belt" is it just the stock ls belt, or is it shorter than that one? so you can avoid the banging just in the belt?

he has an si, his hubs are fine. If he had an hf/std he would need different hubs.

Everything sounds good but if you want to do the swap right integra axles will get you by but i have found they are a little to long for this application it rides rough compared to the stock length when i did my swap i had a company in Florida called http://www.raxles.com make the proper axles to fit identically as you would factory.
That means you have shitty mounts. Mine fit perfect and have all the free play they will ever need in any driving condition (over 20XXXkms since I went B series).
DA Throttle cable and bracket, makes it a bolt on application, if not a custom mount will be needed.
DA clutch cable, the stock one will work but you will NOT be able to adjust your clutch.

It depends on your cltuch/release brearing/ mounts. I would just find one at a wrecking yard and use it. I did it, and I get 100% adjustment that you would get in a B series cable car, like a DA integra

do you have a mid shaft? youll need one of those with the axles. also youll need headers to bolt to your exhaust, the ls bolt holes dont line up, at best, or youll have a 2'' gap between the headers and the cat
so about the exhaust manifold part? i heard or actually read on a site saying that i can use the LS manifold with the stock d series downpipe and that it bolts up perfect is this true?
id go try it out for you since i have the same swap in my car right now and am dealing with the that problem but i dont have access to my car right now. when i get it back ill try it.
