You need to check on line at motor swap.com and 1850 I would not pay it unless i saw the car it came out of and it had a warranty on it you will be out enough time and labor if it don't work not counting change over parts,what about the computer you know you will need it.Hay, do what you want i know another person that has done the same got a bad motor 5 months ago he still has not got his money back yet after having to pay to send it back.

you need to check out automotiveforums.comThose guys know everything there is to know about exactly what you're talking about. And I think you can buy a "swap kit" but still definately check out that site. It helps me all the time.

Yes thats a very common swap for honda civics..i believe it bolts right up.if i were you..id sell that civic and buy an integra if you want that motor..itd be cheaper

to answer the first three questions yes you will but hasport has a complete kit so look them up and thats a good price for all that stuff if its in working order

yes to all but except to #3 you will need teggy axels and the price is way too high i get shit like that for the whole swap for 500 but the choice is yours all i work on are singles and i spank type-r's all the time with my z6.
