    Your wiring harness will work. If ur civic is a vtec motor u can zip tie the vtec sensors outta the way. You need:

    b series axles
    b18b ecu preferably obd1 p75 if u wanna boost it. "ob1 jumper will be needed"
    b series 94+ half shaft
    b series 94+ shift linkage
    p54 bracket if u wanna keep a/c
    "SI" motor mounts
    B18 Throttle Cable

    And i am sure there is more but i got brainfreeze now lol. BTW i am in the process of doing the same swap in my 00 civic lmk if you need any help finding parts etc...

    1. U will need to reuse your old (civic) harness. You will need to unravel all the electrical tape and rewire it to the proper sensors. best to do it outside the engine.
    2. Odb0 b16 engine mount on the driver side with your stock civic mount.

    We did this same swap in a 99 civic and everything wired up and we used stock shift linkage and motor mounts. Everything worked out fine. But the owner did put in a set of polyurethane mount inserts. Hell we even started it with the stock ecu. Why buy a bunch of parts you dont need.
