they are correct. Do a search. DPFI to MPFI swap is what you need to research.

refer to this website about the dx conversion: http://dmoore.com/crx/zc-dx-swap.htm

the dx models are the hardest ones to do motor swaps from what i heard.

Well if that is what the shops told you they are wrong!!!!!!!!!!Direct drop if thats what they said means that it will fit in your car with out using an aftermarket mount kit, uses your stock mounts. On a DOHC non-vtec motor from a jdm crx you will need: ZC motor, your car wired for MPFI because it is DPFI(two less injecters) and a SI or ZC ecu depending on which one you want to run. You can use your stock D-series tranny but upgrading the tranny would be a very good idea either get ahold of a si tranny or if the motor comes with a ZC tranny you will need axles from like a 89 teg.

It doesnt matter if it is SOHC or DOHC ZC... they aren't the DPFI type... they are made to be used with MPFI... you can put all your DPFI junk on it, but why do that when it will basically be the same thing as the motor you have now.

I would think unless your ZC didn't come with an intake mani, or it came with a fubar intake mani. you should only need the ECU (88-91 si, 90-93 teg, or zc), and the 88-91 Si engine wiring harness (to rob plugs off of) all of the other parts should have come with the engine.
