If I get the original JDM mounts/linkage/axles, will they work?

I am looking at a complete package with the original JDM axles and mounts and linkage, will any of that stuff work for my swap into my '90 hatch??
Yes they should, but welding in the mounts is a very tedious task. You have to get them exactly in place or you could screw the whole thing up. I would just get mounts but if you are very patient and have access to a cheap welder then go for it.

I figured if I could use the stock axles and linkage it would save a few bucks. I had originally planned on using the HASport kit (still do plan on that). I don't want to weld anything in .......
Guess if I do get the whole set-up, then I'll have a few things available on ebay then!!

I am doing this swap currently and my whole swap only cost 1,400
I got the New HCP mounts and they are very good..
Hasport are very solid also but HCP is better priced $375 with shift linkage..
the linkage is a pain in the *** but works well when gotten right..
if you get a b16a1 with a s1 tranny it should come with the sk7 intemediate shaft and then all you would need is mounts and 90-91 teg axles.....

why don't you just get a complete front clip? and if you're lucky, you'll get the gauge cluster too.
The original mounts won't work from JDM. You need it after you weld the mount location but with them you still need to weld. The only thing you can use are the shafts (90-93 Integra are the same) and the shift linkage (90-93 Integra are the same). I used the mount kit...they are guaranteed for life, they are urethane less rocking back and forth, and you get better power transfer to the floor.
