after a quick SEARCH i found some info

http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=59989&highlight=carbi+efi+conversion

off the top of my head i think you will need ... fuel tank, fuel lines, engine, ecu

all depends on what engine you want to change to ... not sure about changing the same engine from carby to efi

other ppl will probably have more info for ya, this has been covered before many times tho so dont be suprised if u get hit with the 'GO SEARCH' rage lol

i my myself havn't had experience in DIY, but i have watched my mates do it and its time consuming + ALOT OF HEADACHES. They said they should of bought an efi. But machanics do it for about 1000 give or take depending if u have the eqiupment already

If you have no idea how to drop a motor in, please, do not attempt a DIY carby>efi without the help of someone qualified / with experience!

Doing a cabry / efi swap is a huge headache. Too be honest, if you end up spending $x,xxx in getting help to do the swap, you should of put that money into buying an injected shell to start with.

i remember when i was a noob 9-10 years ago and wanted to DE-carby my eg4. I had the d15b4 which i think would be your model. Dont bother with the engine man, thrash the crap out of it until the thing blows and then replace it with a dohc vtec. Either d or b series for your budget.

It's not a huge hassle in some respects, at least the EG comes in an injected model, you could easily get a tank and lines, filter etc from a wreckers, and it would all bolt in.
If you buy a b series halfcut, then you will have everything including wiring looms to do the job
