Default Please help me starting my swap

Dear all,

I really want a series help in starting doing K24 swap into my rex
I have a 89 ED9 CRX and my plan is to install K24A2. I’m much understood all the things needed to start, do and finish the swap, but my biggest problem is sourcing the items that I will require to do so

The real problem is I live some where overseas (middle east_ no terrorism_just for the ppl to understand or ppl never been in Middle East) in a country called Oman (you can goggle)

So after gathering all the info and gain all the technical knowledge, I’ve started preparing my shopping list. I got the motor for 500$ (K24A2 from accord) which is already laying in my house
Then I got the big slap. Yesterday I got an e-mail reply from Hasport after sending one to them asking that my country is not listed in the shipping countries. The reply said ‘we doing do internationally’
I got really angry for getting such a reply. So does that mean end of the road for me??????????

I really want to do this swap just to complete my love to my REX. I own my car for almost 4 years now, when first time I got it, it was in a bad condition where I decide to restore the car and pimp it as much as possible. Well I’ve done every thing in it starting from body work until internal which remains the engine
Around here we have a lot of performance shops all kind of brand names that you can imagine but not shops where swap requirements can be sold

So please ppl helping doing this any suggesting are most welcome. Are there any other options/sources to get my requirements
All I need are:
Mounts
Axels
Header
KPRO: I dint check yet with hondata if they do internationally or no

Other things I can take care of
Wiring_ my engine came with complete harness and I can solve any other wiring issue (By the way I have a degree in electronics engineering and doing Master in electrical engineering)
Shifter: I have the complete unit of the accord where I got the motor from didn’t check it will fit in my rex but not a concern for me I can work it out

Don’t remember all the things right now but I calculated almost every thing
My biggest problems are the mount, axels and header (well for the header I may do a custom one but not sure yet)

Please ppl I need your help

For pics of my ride please check my profile and sorry for the long writing

Cheers
