can you use parts from 90-97 accord to do the swap or do i need a 98+ parts? i'm asking because the 90-97 manual parts are easier to locate than the 98+ parts

 

What year Accord do you have?

Please don't froget to mention this info when asking a question like this.

 

I'm assuming you have a 98+ accord. According to this article (http://accordinglydone.com/tech/tech.php?ID=31), the transmission, starter, clutch, and flywheel, are the only parts that are interchangeable between the 90-02 accords. You would probably have to get the rest of the parts from 98+ accords.
