*waits for lloyd to see thread*
:p
youll be able to use the box that comes with the d15, and it all should mount up in your bay coz the D series mounts are all teh same
ecu, just use the stock d15b ecu
you will need to do an efi conversion.
youll need either an intake pump or run a surge tank with an external pump
the engine loom and dash loom will all need to be changed to the d15 loom. best bet would be to try and find a front cut so you can use everything

it wont bolt in at all, you will haqve to make fully custom mounts to get it in there. The only engine that will bolt in easily will be the d16a3 from a 86-89 integra.
