what are the mods need for JDM into USDM

i know most of the modifications that are needed, but if there are any other please let me know. other than wiring harness, since the car is built for RHD, i started to think if there was anything else that i needed to mod.. like battery harness and stuff.

Wow! Is it a lot more work dropping a JDM GSR into a 93 Civic CX (Canada model) over a USDM GSR?

I would like to know what's different in the swap...

Nothing is really different. The only advantage of having the USDM swap over a JDM is that you could use the complete engine harness. If you got a JDM motor, you could always get a USDM harness or just use your stock harness and add the necessary wires. Either way you will still have some wiring to do since you have a 93 CX.
