Default 2nd car swap Question?

Ok guys, i got a 94 Civic EX coupe and I'm selling it and getting a 96-99 Civic HB. i dropped a B16a into my 94 and im taking it back out and dropping it in the Hatch. Heres a few Questions:

1. Can i use the same hasport mounts
2. Can i use the same shift lin.
3. Can i use the same axles?
4. And the wiring harness, do i use the same one im using now(OBD1)
5. Is there any other things that i might run into during this swap that will cause problems?

the axles will work, use the wiring harness that came with the car and get an obdx to obdx wiring harness. Linkage most likely will work too. Not sure about the mounts, but i don't think they will work.

Someone correct me if I am wrong

No, you MUST use the stock one (or matching EX) from the car you are swapping into. 96-98 are different from 99-00 and can't interchange between them. OBD1 harness or any Integra harness won't work at all.

Just minor electrical/sensor plug changes, nothing to be alarmed about. You will need an OBD2/OBD2B (depends on what year car you get) to OBD1 ECU adapter harness to use an OBD1 ECU.
