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...
thanks i am starting on my swap once i get all the parts in..if i need any help i will pm u
good luck with yours i hope everything will come out rite for u
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.
thanks yea im going to take out the harness to make it much easier for meOriginally Posted by PurpleGodzilla

thanks for the help...need couple of more parts then i am ready to drop the engine in....
