The type-s engine transplant to 2.2vtec car,,,,.. Not good

Well after a few days on and off, checking the forum and etc etc, I can now confirm that (as yes I was told) a type-s engine will not fit in any other car because of serious differences, anyway may others Learn from my @&)& up!!

1,the LSD needs to be removed (not a problem initself 4 bolts)
The problem then arises of taking out the drive out of the transmission to locate the standard h22 drive. It won't happen.

1a, also the drive shaft support that is between the cam cover and transmission doesn't have anywhere to bolt to on the type-s block as (believe it or not) the engine casting itself is different and has no way of bolting on.

2, could leave LSD box on, but you can't plug it in and it's electronically controlled and needs to go to the ecu the type-s engine loom has an extra block connector to be plugged in at the rear of the engine bay passenger side where the normal 4 plugs are.....

All in all a bit of a headache, however I don't see it as a waste of time as I've learnt quite a few things, and hopefully someone could read this and save some hassle themselves, thanks to all the folks that posted info on the other "extra bit on block" thread,

Anyone after a type-s engine complete ??? Lololololol
