Where do you live for starters? I don't know where Glenwood is but I'm sure there's more than one in Australia.

Why don't you ask a mechanic or engine building shop?

its a pretty straight forward swap - u dont even have to change the wiring harness - just need to run a couple of extra cables for the vtec and put the D16 ECU into the Gli

another option is to just mini-me headswap - u get roughly the same power from a D15 mini-me as a D16y1/D16z6 because the higher compression makes up for the lost 100cc displacement

if you lived near me i would do it pretty cheap - such an easy thing to do lol

alot easier then doing a complete swap and just about the same power.

do it!
