Default 90 Accord Ex swap? what to do?

well first off. My 5spd transmission is going out on my accord. And also I can smell the burning of oil through my vents inside the car. The car has 258k on it right now. I am just looking for a daily driver. So my question is. Does the JDM H23 motor a direct drop into my 90 Accord Ex. Meaning no rewiring of any sort and also I can use my ecu with it? I am not looking to spend money on a H22 at all. Also what's the best place to purchase the motor from a good shop with the right price? I am looking for the long block/5spd tranny. Thanks

Jdm h23 as in a prelude si non vtec or the h23 vtec? But if it's the si nonvtec, then yes, it will b a direct bolt in. If u use a h series trans though, u will have to drill and tap a hole on the trans. Unless u use a aftermarket mount. From ESP.net or something. But why spen all that money on a si when u can buy a f22a6 that has almost the same hp. Just get a f22a6 longblock, use the f22a6 runner with a h22/h23 plenum and t body. And for ecu, get a pt6 to go along with what I suggest. U have to run the iab though. It's worth it. Let us know.
