Have you checked all your suspension bolts? I just looked over mine the other day and my lca castle nuts were a little lose. I havent had the chance to drive it to see if it fixed it thou. How did it drive before the swap? Sure the wheels were flush when torqued?

how is the geometry of the drive shafts?. it is importent that they are at close to the correct geometry. try using a 90-93 integra 1/2 shaft. I ran into this problem with one of the B16 swaps I did

you shouldnt have any problems unless your have the 1.5 then u will have to get a 1.6 ecu witch i have one if u need one and your wireing mit be a little different for the fuel injectors and what not all the sensors should be the same probably be easyer to get a wireing harness for the 1.6 otherwise thats it well that i can think of at the moment good luck with the swap if i think of anything else ill let u know
