If using D17a engine into an EK you'd have to use everything what D17a had. Things like ECU, wiring for sensors, shifter unit and cables, engine mounts(custom), custom axes(unless you can custom ones using OEM parts), and etc, etc.

If I were you tho, I'd rather just put D16Y8 or D15B(JDM) or even an old D16A and start from there. It is just soOo not worth it to swap a D17a to ANYTHING.

..that's just me tho. =P
