Thanks for the prompt reply. I was looking around for one of these engines and I found this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-H...spagenameZWDVW it has less than 40k miles on it. Also would the manual transmission bolt up to this one or would I need to get another transmission as well? And would I need new motor mounts and all of that jazz? Thank you

no i wouldnt get that one because its just the engine. its better to get a setup with the engine tranmission ecu wiring harness and axles. your current transmission will work with the engine but it wont work well unless you turbo

haha, you could make it fit. You don't need those pointless back seats, do you?

h22a1 is your best bet though if you want something that will for the most part bolt up (with the exception of a motor mount of two). As light said, you'll need the transmission and axles and of course, the ECU.

Have you thought about turboing that f? F's make sick turbo motors...

heh, i have the same exact car as you and I'm loving my turbo set up!

I think that would be the least of your worries if you are trying to get that into a honda.
