Mounts, wiring, axles, suspension, thinline fan umm brakes are important. I have an h22 in my del sol Si and after 6 months i got major brake fade infront. Front rotors are warped and the calipers were also starting to melt. I picked up some brembo cross drilled and slotted rotors front and back for gsr, gsr calipers and spindles for the front, SS lains and some kind of carbon brake pad. Oh also a bigger brake booster and master cylinder.

Every plug on your stock harness has to be lenghened around 4-5" and the alternator wire extended(isnt fun). The slimline fan that i bought pushes 120 cfms which keeps the engine cooler and also keeps the hydro clutch from rubbing against the fins. Ground control sells the appropriate spring rates for this swap.

Overall to do this right, it gets expensive, yes you can just throw this big monster in your civic but later down the road stuff will break. If you have any specific questions just post, theres way to much info to put down.
