you can get everything you need - mount kit, shift linkage, axles, cable actuator, etc. from Place Racing - going to cost you about $1200

get it done at a professional shop that specializes in putting in honda engines, DO NOT TRY TO DO IT URSELF, u'll regret it and u'll run into so many problems, where i live in tucson arizona i could have it done for 7000 dollars turn key price for the engine and complete install. not worth it in my opinion but maybe u can find something cheaper out in cali, good luck

Ok I really didn't want to make two threads about the same section so I was wondering how hard and is it a lot less difficult for me to just go and throw in the h22a motor into a 93 Civic Coupe which I found for 1,200 bucks that my friend is offering. What do you think? Also what 1/4 mile times do you think I could do if it was stock?
Let me know thanks you guys for all of your help.

Yes, much easier. Swap parts for that are readily availible and is pretty much bolt-in, except for the cable shift assembly.

No, there should be none unless the shifter is welded. It will probably only need to be bolted in.

Now for another question does anyone know a cheap place in bay area california that will bore out my cylinders? I want it done professionaly but I don't want spend a grip doing it. I'm going to eventually buy high compression je pistons and rods.

swap into a 92-95 hatch
not worth it to ruin handling qualities of a crx
crx needs a small motor
do a b16 swap or somethin
even if you have the h22a your gonna need some serious suspension work to have a normal handling car.
understeering aint fun
