The engine it self is a straight swop one out one in mounts an every thing related to bolting it in are the same. My problems came with more things not compatible between the 4th an 5th than I realised lol but you won't have the same ishoos. VTEC is way the better option other that boosting it but that's a faff.I have a complete engine loom up to the fire wall and a JDM p13 ecu for sale if you need then can pug the VTEC straight in. Hope helped look forward to seeing the results

Thank you all for your feedback, I'm even more tempted now to go ahead and get this done. I feel that I should do a little work on the engine though ,I think it would be prudent while the engine is out to replace water pump , timing belt, and maybe head gasket, any thoughts?
I'm interested in that ecu and loom if you could let me know what you need to get we can sort something out.
