Default D15b going in 92 hatch...need swap info

So I have a 92 hatch and it aleady has a d15b7 in it. Friend is selling me his jdm d15b out of a 90 or 91 hatch. Motor/trans/ecu...basicly everything I can use I can take. Just woundering... It has a stage 3 clutch, would I be able to just put my stock clutch in replace of it.. As for the motor mounts would I be able to use the ones he has or should I find new ones.. Anything els anyone can help with or even throw in your 2cents would be much of help...

eg and ef have dif motor mounts.
and yes you can directly swap the clutch. but punch yourself in the face for going backwards to a stock clutch.

Was his EF running OBD1 or OBD0? Because EF's are natively OBD0. If its OBD1 then you can take basically everything other than the mounts.

Use the stock mounts from your D15B7 on the D15B vtec.

Ima thinking it's obd1.. I'm kind new to the Honda game.. But I know the d15b came obd1 or obd2 only.. And the ef has a jumper wire harness with a p28 ecu..so I'm hopeing I can just plug that mother right in and drive away..

Dude this is going to be a dd...no need for a stag 3 clutch...don't you think that stage 3 would just end up burning up some other ****..it's to stiff for around 130hp in that little motor...

nah its fine. I drive around on a stage 4 Competition Clutch/ACT clutch and its my DD. I have a Boosted setup though, but its still a D series and its fine for driving even off of boost.

I hear that..I'm just lazy and don't feel like haveing a stiff *** clutch in trafic..plus I figure if the stock one ever goes out..I'll have a back up, or even sell the stage 3

right on...I hear that on too..I don't want to throw my **** off too much..I also have an srt4..I'd rather just keep them about the same..who knows I might be too lazy by the time I'm doing the swap and not even want to pull the trans...what's your take on the obd situation...I'm thinking the ef is obd0 and just has a obd1 conversion harness...hopeing I just have to wire in the vtech and oil thing
